Nomën Ipsa

Hardcore, retro-styled RPG focused on boss fights with interesting mechanics. Demanding. At times grind-y. There are leaderboards to climb! You can team up with your friends (so they can call you useless when you inevitably miss a mechanic), or go solo. Your call, play however you want.

Screenshots

From the Steam store

A hardcore, retro-styled action RPG built around demanding boss fights, rendered in chunky pixel art. You learn each boss the hard way: dying to its patterns and phases until you can read every telegraph and punish every opening.

What you actually do:

Fight handcrafted bosses. Each encounter is mechanically driven: positioning, timing, and reacting to telegraphed attacks matter far more than mashing buttons.

Grind gear and progress your character. Boss kills feed a loot and equipment progression loop, including rare and unique items.

Sacrifice rare and unique items to the gods of the Void, trading your hard-won gear for their Favor and lasting power.

Earn Renown: the primary score and currency that anchors the endgame loop.

Climb the leaderboards, solo or in up to 4-player co-op.

Team up with friends (so they can call you useless when you inevitably miss a mechanic), or go solo. Your call, play however you want.
