Key Features

Breaking the 4th Wall
The 4th wall is a concept from theater where the actors on stage directly interact with the audience. In the same fashion, you partake in the story of Numina as a character in the form of a bodiless voice that only Shawn can hear - a guardian spirit. You can interact with Shawn and influence his decisions through dialogue choices in the game.
Branching Decisions
The decisions you make influences the relationship Shawn has with the other characters you'll meet in the game. Having good relationships with your party members unlocks powerful combo-attacks in battle and may open up the opportunity to take your relationship to the next level ♥ Your decisions also influence the overall course of the story to conclude into one of the four possible endings.
Battle with the Elements
Engage in a round-based combat system with action inputs for some attacks that require you to make timed inputs for maximum damage! Each character also has unique elemental abilities to exploit enemy weaknesses. Incorporate this into your strategy to quickly win battles.
Explore the World of Alterna
Most side quests in NUMINA allow you to dive deeper into the backstory and lore of the world. But you can also explore the beautiful scenery with your grappling hook to reach higher places and find new gear, spell scrolls or rare items.

Numina 1.23.0 - Achievements Fix & Improvements

Hey everyone!

I've just released a new update that contains a fix for the Steam Achievements that weren't unlocking porperly and some Quality of Life improvements for Part 2.

Steam Achievements Fix
Make sure to update the game and verify that the version number is displaying 1.23.0 and "Connected to Steamworks" in the lower right corner of the title menu: Game Description Image

Sadly, Achievements you missed won't be unlocked automatically after this update. You might have to replay certain parts again to actually unlock them. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience this causes.

Sheol Quality of Life
The Red Desert has been quite frustrating for some players because of how easy it is to lose the path and get reset back.

I've changed the mechanics to instead deal some amount of damage to the party over time, once you get off the path instead of immediately teleporting the player to the last safe area. That way the desert is more forgiving and gives you more time to find your way back.

Ship Investigations
Without going too much into spoiler territory, this change makes it easier to solve a riddle in a certain questline in Part 2. I've made a bit easier by removing the necessity to talk to certain people to start things off.

As always thank you very much for supporting Numina. Even if there aren't as many regular updates as in the beginning I'm still actively checking your comments, feedbacks and impressions of the game and improving it when I have the time

Thank you all!
