From the Steam store

While this world may lack the normal human problems of hunger, fatigue, and death, it's not without its own set of issues. The world's inhabitants, Zens, constantly fight and bicker, forming clubs and factions as they strive against each other for wealth, power, and influence. The worst of these is The Engineer, a madwoman hidden away in the distant Sky Castle, who stirs up conflict with her army of Constructs, noisy mechanical beings that belch smoke and keep everyone from getting any rest.

Arm yourself against The Engineer's machinations by leveling 8 character classes with distinct abilities as you fight your way through both her Constructs and the natural inhabitants of the world, Abstractimals. Gain new powers through hundreds of weapons, armor, pets, artifacts, and consumable items. Make friends and gather Companions to buff yourself as you head toward Sky Castle and your final showdown with The Engineer.
