TEVI Bullet hell with a big heart

Tevi fights up close with a dagger and an oversized wrench, and she is far from alone. Celia and Sable, her two companions, float beside her as orbitars and unleash ranged magic, both offensive and supportive. The two halves work together: you dash in for melee combos, then call on magic to cover a gap or set up the next hit. Adapt the mix to whatever the situation demands and the result is flashy, dazzling combos. The action is fast and responsive, and the pixel art keeps every hit bright and readable even when the screen fills with projectiles.

More than 20 unique boss battles anchor the game, and each one asks for a different strategy. You dodge, read the patterns and wait for an opening to counter-attack. Bosses change phases as the fight goes on, their attacks and bullet patterns getting sharper, until some unleash a devastating special move. Keep the pressure on and you can push a boss into a vulnerable BREAK state, where a massive burst of damage is yours for the taking. It is a proper bullet hell at its core: the screen fills, and threading through it is the whole pleasure.

The world of Az is a vast, interconnected map of more than 40 areas, and it hides over 300 items and pieces of equipment. Finding them does not just make numbers go up: new abilities open new ways to navigate and reach secrets you walked past hours earlier. On top of that, equippable sigils can be freely configured, so you shape a build around how you like to play. Multiple difficulty modes keep it open to any skill level. And when you need a breather, the soundtrack of more than 70 original tracks carries the exploring nicely.
