Hi, we are Alcyon Games, a two guys developing team, and we want to show you our development progress on Elyra: Echoes from the Void, a Super Metroid and Ori and the Blind Forest influenced videogame.

 Loading Image

The game is heavily inspired by Super Metroid, our favorite videogame as a child; and graphically inspired by Ori and the Blind forest.

This is an exploration 2d videogame set in a sci-fi universe, where you play as Aida Nebul, a Void Wanderer hired to protect a scientific expedition to a new moon that appeared on the gas giant Farlorn.

As you reach the surface of the moon you're attacked by the Acrata, an anarchy faction in the universe. You get stranded on the surface of the planet, the ships stop working for some reason and can't take off. Looking for survivors and trying to escape you explore the moon discovering its secrets.

Here are some screenshots, images and gifs on the current development:

Thank you for the infinite support!!

Looks super cool! 8)

Thanks Nate! :beer:

Besides the neat animations, I especially love the environment art. Great work!

The environment art is grand!

I am a little jealous - this is the kind of idea I wanted to work on before our game took some worthwhile, but different turns. Good luck!

Thanks!. I've worked hard on the environment art, and I want to pull off the same effort in every other single aspect of the art in the game like enemies, animations, FX, etc. Thanks!

Many many thanks for your words!, we're really working hard on our game 🙂

Looks great! Really nice environments.

The run animation seems a little stiff to me. But it could just be personal preference.

Thanks!, yes those gifs are a little bit old, we are revisiting a lot of animations to make them more fluid. Thanks for the feedback!

Environment design looks really awesome !
keep up the good work !

Many thanks! one of the core elements of the development of this game is to achieve an appealing and misterious atmosphere. The other one is the story.
Obviously we are aiming for entertaining core gameplay mechanics too.


New enemy for the game, fully animated! Now we just need to add it to the game
