Wren's Resurgence
SteamWren’s Resurgence is a 2D action platformer where Wren must fight her way through the Yokai-infested lands in order to rescue her sister Swan. With the evil force’s tyrannical grasp on the island, it’s up to Wren to brandish her katana and bring peace back to the land.

Along her journey, Wren will meet a number of seemingly friendly faces, some of whom will aid her on the adventure ahead.

Wren is a nimble warrior, with fast-paced movement and the agility to double jump, dash and climb up walls. Shrines to one of the realm’s greatest warriors, the legendary Masamune, house some of the long-deceased master’s renowned blades, which Wren can wield in her battles.

Wren’s life will change before her eyes as she finds some light in the darkness, gaining new powers from some of the Yokai she defeats. With the protection provided by her upgradeable Omamori charm, she’ll learn about the true nature of each Yokai as she strikes them down and documents them in her journal.

Her task ahead is monumental. In addition to hordes of Yokai, Wren will be forced to test her might against the ferocious Jubokko, the towering Gashadokuro and many more.

In order to best these monstrosities, Wren must steel herself by upgrading her gear, unlock new powers and utilise all of the abilities at her disposal.
