Spiritfall

October Beta is Live



“Greetings Omenforged.”

The time has come - The Spirits are calling you to restore balance to the world.

Our October Beta is now live until October 24th 09:00 UTC / 03:00 EST / 07:00 CEST



We have been working hard since our Beta in July on adding new features which lay the groundwork for future updates while also listening to feedback on the combat and resource management. Here is an overview of some of the changes and new features.


  • More combat moves and options, taking further inspiration from Platform Fighter combat (Neutral / Side attack split, better combo, more defined movesets, mobility & air stall options)
  • Meta currency no longer occupies a room spot in the map's route and is given to players as an additional reward in rooms as they progress
  • A new relic system allows players to equip one Relic with a unique effect, and can have random additional bonuses based on its level
  • A new in-run resource that powers up blessings you already own
  • New Elite enemy variants - more powerful but have better drops upon defeat
  • The difficulty of the game has been increased




We want to make Spiritfall the best game it can be. You can help us achieve this throughout the Beta by sharing your feedback in our official Discord Server: https://discord.gg/TzwwcUNW3n
