Face merciless gameplay to explore a cursed castle, discover the dark tales of its inhabitants, and kill the gods and horrors of a decaying world. Eternal Return combines retro graphics and old-school mechanics with modern nonlinear level design and storytelling.
Survive to Explore
Slow pacing combined with tight yet unconvential controls builds stress, tension, and horror during gameplay, rather than taking a hack & slash approach. Players build their health, stamina, and arsenal up from nothing - and earn points by killing enemies to use special weapons to fight their way to the next shortcut - up and up to the tallest towers and observatories where cosmic nightmares watch the cowering world below - down and down to the buried deeps of the earth, where age-sequestered monstrosities brood - farther and farther into the labyrinth of Zerfall Schloss. The game includes 24 very challenging, nonlinear, and interconnected levels populated by 15 NPCs, almost 100 enemy types, and 15 monstrous bosses.
Discover a Story
Speak to NPCs, find written messages, muse over paintings, and explore story-filled architecture to learn or infer the forgotten tales of the crumbling castle and its fading inhabitants - including yourself.

Eternal Return goes live this Friday!
Thank you to everyone who has engaged with the project pre-release. Eternal Return has been a huge part of my life for the last two years, and I'm very happy to say I'll be delivering a game very much aligned with my original vision.
Some notes on the release:
- Eternal Return will be priced at USD 9.99 (with corresponding prices in other currencies.)
- We'll launch with a week long 15% discount, but there won't be another discount for at least six months. I've created something I'm very proud of, and think it's worth standing at a constant, fair price.
- The game will launch on 24 February 2017 at 12:01AM Pacific Time Zone if who want to do your own midnight release.
