Blade Chimera Gameplay

Image

Blade Chimera is a pixelated 2D Metroidvania that puts you in control of Shin, a character wielding the powerful Lumina Sword—actually the demon Lux. As the Demon Sword, Lux provides a versatile set of abilities, from delivering devastating attacks and shielding you from harm to acting as a platform and even restoring lost objects. Use your demonic companion to navigate and survive in the desolate, demon-infested Osaka.

Explore the world, rediscover the past, create new paths, and face countless dangers in this action-packed Metroidvania. Along the way, you’ll not only rely on Lux, but also have access to other weapons like daggers and guns, allowing you to tailor your combat style. Equip them to suit your preferred approach—using guns for ranged attacks and daggers for close combat.
The game’s progression system follows a classic skill tree, giving you the ability to unlock new skills as you level up. From double jump to the Warp skill, which allows for fast travel, these upgrades will be crucial in your journey through this perilous world.
