The Developer Says...

Embark on a Treacherous Pilgrimage

Guide Mae on a coming-of-age pilgrimage in this heartfelt precision platformer, designed for both newcomers and those in search of a challenge.

For hundreds of years, the Mountain Shaman have used their powers of Astral Projection to travel vast distances. But Mae is different – her spirit travel is limited by a tether. When the time comes for a coming of age pilgrimage, Mae must forgo spirit flight and take the journey the long way.

Join Mae on her challenging journey, using tough but satisfying platforming to leap and bound towards her goal. Master seven different Azae that change how your spirit interacts with the environment. Scour the world for secrets, treasures and hidden paths – your curiosity will be rewarded!
