Bounty hunting isn't all sweat and grit! Travel through an exotic world as Lira, platforming though obstacles, juggling enemies, surviving nightmares, and looking for a cure of her Necrolepsy!
Necrolepsy is an action platformer featuring many unique elements wrapped up in a sprawling metroidvania/item search series of levels. But, make sure you watch the timer! Race Against The Time! Necrolepsy's main mechanic is the timer that slowly counts down to zero. Once there, the game goes into a nightmare mode! All the enemies and bosses get much harder! Explore Giant, Sprawling Levels! Traverse large levels featuring tons of platforming and combat. Fight your way through four large levels, each with unique theming and challenges! They also have unique textures when in a nightmare too! Play with Your Food! Featuring momentum and weight in combat, Lira can launch, push and juggle enemies, with a flexible combo system to boot, rewarding you extra money for using unique moves! Tons of Replayability! You thought this was it? You can replay the game with a variety of different filters. You can make nightmares permanent, always make it a nightmare, play the game like a classic arcade game with lives, and lead to extras like a boss rush mode and beach volleyball mode!
