Engauge is a 2-D action platformer set in a vibrant world of buzzing machinery.
Engauge is an action-adventure game inspired by the ambience and presentation of games like **Bastion** and **Dark Souls,** conveying story through tone.
### Gameplay
Engauge is designed around **tight controls** and **platforming.**
The mechanics consist of **running** , **jumping** , **wall-jumping** , **defending** and **using primary and secondary abilities**. Primary and secondary abilities are determined by items known as **cores**.
Currently, there are seven cores planned for Engauge. Besides cores, **Engauge also features:**
* **Jumping/Ability Puzzles** \- Take a break from the roil and toil of combat to complete ability puzzles. Use your abilities and platforming skills to overcome obstacles and solve the puzzles.
* **Collectibles** \- Pick up an array of curious objects throughout your journey. Read their descriptions to discover the mysteries of the world around you.
* **AI Interaction** \- Engage enemies in meaningful combat as you adapt to their fighting styles and exploit their weaknesses.
* **Hidden Items** \- Discover hidden items nestled throughout the nooks and crannies of the world. Your exploration can lead you to ability-cores, special collectibles and a variety of vanity items.
* **Special Events/Enemies** \- Trigger special events by exploring the world. Hear quirky conversations, face tough foes and even uncover the Legend of the Iron Gauntlet.
### Platform & Release Expectations
Forged in C++, Engauge is being developed for PC, Mac and Linux. In accordance to Programmer Ian’s wishes, Engauge will be released DRM free and will be designed to be modding friendly.
Sidenote: If possible, we would like to also release Engauge on the various consoles but without significant support from the respective communities this is unlikely. Don’t worry though, we are still planning for the port and expect Engauge to have an optimized control scheme/level layouts in case of release.
