Its all about the community! At Dreamirl we believe in the power of the community, too many games are released and players simply are not happy with the game they play, we want every player to love playing the game as much as we love making it. Our first Steam game Exoblast was in Early-Access until our community and us were happy with it. Throughout our journey we made a lot of changes and improvements, thanks to the feedback from our community. Today with Noreya however, we are aiming way higher. This Metroidvania is not like the others. Noreya features new unique mechanics unseen before in this genre. With Noreya we tried to innovate for the better, we aimed to develop a game that was more fun, more fluid and more instinctive. This is shown in our unique Karma mechanic system which required the most work, testing and balancing. In Noreya you can:
Well, we wanted to make something unique that stands the test of time, and as such we needed more time and your feedback to accomplish this. As a French company we love our wine and early-access allows us to affine the game just like you would a nice bottle of wine. You our community are tasting all the variations of Noreya until you and us decide its perfect.
Approximately 8-10 hours depending on your exploration and skill.

We will aim to keep communicating with you as much as possible when this happens.
Steamdeck: Yes you can. However, Right now to play on a steam deck you will have to make some configurational changes to play on the Steamdeck as Steam is not currently letting us push the latest build to default.. Mac: we have an issue with our Apple Developer Account and we are waiting for their support to be able to fix the build and upload it again. Linux: Noreya currently only runs on Ubuntu.

If you find an issue please fill in a report with your OS and specs and we will look into it.
We hope you will join us in Early-Access. Noreya features many new mechanics not seen in metroidvania games before. This has involved a lot of risks. However, only you the players can tell us if this is a success! We truly hope you love playing this game as much as we loved making it!

"Noseka: The Gold Project" is a 2D pixel-art metroidvania game set in a dark fantasy universe.
The game offers players a choice between allegiance to the Gods of Light and Shadow or the gods of Corruption and Gold!
But be careful!
Decisions made in the game affect your progression by changing the available paths and abilities.
The game's key art creates a unique experience for gamers with no run being the same as others, this duality encourages players to explore both paths.
Auria, the God of Avarice, took power over the city of Lemia after imprisoning the Goddess of Light. Kali, a fighter who lost everything at the hands of the gods, sets out for the city to verify the rumors surrounding this new god who corrupts and subjugates humans in exchange for wealth.
Explore the City of Gold and its cathedral, confront the creatures of shadow and gold, pledge allegiance to the god of your choice to embody their power, or detach yourself from the gods and suffer their wrath. Again
Game features
Backstory: The world of Noreya
In time immemorial, seven deities joined forces to shape the land we know today as Noreya.
Such was the power of the Seven that Men, as a sign of respect but also out of fear, began to worship them. Some sinners, however, strayed from the path, bringing out the most maliciously treacherous parts of themselves. From this malice came new deities, gaining their powers from the servitude of their subjects.
In the lands of Lemia, home of the primordial Goddess of Light, an endless famine persisted. The poor inhabitants' desire for wealth benefited the God of Avarice, who in turn promised an end to their misery. The god everyone now calls the "God of Gold" transformed all his followers into shapeless, tormented creatures: the golden shadows. Lemia, once so luminous, now gives way to unhealthy greed.
Duality: Pledge allegiance and receive the power of the gods!
With a skill tree containing over 50 skills, you can evolve according to your allegiance to the Goddess of Light or the God of Gold.
You can also play double duty, but in this case you won't have access to the most powerful spells. It's up to you to find the best balance for your style of play.
A world for every god.
No more metroidvania with a single map to discover.
In the world of Noreya, the world changes according to your allegiance.
Are you familiar with the Golden World and have now decided to worship the Light? Get ready for a whole new experience, forge ahead as you discover which areas have changed and discover which parts of the game are no longer accessible! However, in turn get ready to explore other new adventures that now await the servant of the Light!
Each version of the world conceals secrets and exclusive bonuses. Can you find the artifacts hidden in the depths of the world? Only time will tell!
The soundtrack
Signed by the incredible duo Sarys / MisterMV, enjoy an original soundtrack that will accompany you throughout your adventure.
Switch allegiance, and the music will change and evolve with you.
A game for arachnophobes:
Initially, we had planned to include spiders in the game, but we realized that many players are arachnophobic.
WIth this in mind, we worked on coming up with an alternative that works and retains the feel of the underground environments.
But who knows, maybe one day the spiders of Noreya will be released. But that's a tale for another time.
