Aurascope is a 2D indie platformer inspired by the Super Mario series, but if you take the movement to a whole new level the likes of Sonic the Hedgehog!
We've been developing this game for 5 years, and now it's time for you to help us get it fully funded! You can support it on Kickstarter, wishlist and play our demo on Steam or itch.io, and follow us here, our official website, Bluesky! You can also join our Discord!
(we also have a twitter but im the tumblr guy on the team im not linking that, you can find it if you're interested)
If you want to know more about the game, I'll go into depth (and notably be less social media manager-y about it) under the cut! Otherwise, have a good day, and at least keep us in mind!
HAHA YOU CLICKED UNDER THE CUT I CAN DROP THE SOCIAL MEDIA SPEAK AND BE AUTISTIC
Hi! I'm Chao, and on top of being the only guy on the team with an active tumblr, I'm alsooo one of two main writers! Go thunk.
Aurascope means a lot to me, and I'm definitely going to use this chance to just... GUSH ABOUT IT. I can't exactly provide high quality marketing images because this is just me being unabashedly autistic about something I love, but if you're this deep in, I don't think you care.
SO! Aurascope. Like I alluded to earlier, one of the best defining parts of the game is it's movement. IT'S MOVEMENT IS SEXY AS SHIT TO PUT IT LIGHTLY. We have working time trial systems, and if you look at them, you can see just how FUCKING IN DEPTH THIS SHIT GETS!!!! It's just. FUCK!!! The lead dev put so much care into making sure the act of getting to places feels fun even if there's no platforming!
BUT THE LEVEL DESIGN IS ALSO INCREDIBLY FUCKING TIGHT??? Like. Okay. It took us so long to come up with the first stage's second mission, long enough for it to be a meme in the community discord. BUT IT FEELS SO GOOD. And the rest of the levels in the demo echo the sentiment; everything is so tightly designed that it's just AMAZINGGG AAA
Okay and to toot my own horn here: the writing. Not all of what me and my co-writer is implemented yet, but what is is INCREDIBLY FUNNY. It's not tailored to tumblr comedy or nothing it's just. Funny cuz it's funny. OH AND WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO PUT QUEER RELATIONSHIPS AND CONTENT INTO THE FULL GAME!!! It's gonna be fucking peak
Okay im gonna cut myself off here cuz i need to post this sometime in the next century BUT I LOVE THE GAME AND IF YOU READ THIS FAR CLEARLY YOU'RE INTERESTED. SO GO CHECK OUT ALL THE STUFF AND PLAY THE DEMO AND IF YOU LIKE IT PLEDGE TO THE KICKSTARTER!!! WE'RE GONNA GET THIS SHIT DONE

A flower is still a flower whether it’s blooming, blossomed, or withered. No matter where I am in my cycle of transformation, I am still a flower. I need to handle myself with that same amount of delicacy.

Vampiric spirits and werewolves
*****We are stepping into that kind of weather (season) where we are forced to prepare ourselves for the change in temperature (temperament). As we move into a new year, we are being called to evaluate our inner desires and what we are LIVING for. We will also start to see that others are here only for survival purposes and not living purposes. Think on it! A person who is only looking to survive will feed off of whatever is available, but a person who is looking to live will choose wisely.*******
There is an exposure of the true nature of people. We are being revealed our origin through our animalistic nature (animal spirits/guides). An example includes our sexuality and what drives us at a carnal level. This is eventually what we’re going to be defining as race in the future. For now, we call it our soul tribe. Those who act within their lower natures will fall subject to devolution. While others will transform into multidimensional beings. Think of animals in our realm, as they are considered a lower level of consciousness. They are proven to have self awareness and intuitive capabilities. However, they exist in a form that limits them to acting within their survival. As humans, we are looked at as a continuously evolving species. But, evolution has been mistaken for immortality. True evolution exceeds beyond physical form. It is being able to access shape and form in other dimensions/spaces. A light being, needing without a physical body to exist. We know that we have this ability because of our dream world. When we dream we experience our light bodies. Like shapeshifters, we shift into our many different forms.

Vampiric spirits and werewolves
When we talk about vampire and werewolf folklore we can see a connection to a sense of supernatural ability to exist through survival. Still these beings are at will to maintaining their natures, like being cursed. They have accessed capabilities beyond their human forms but still have to exist in that form limited to their lower natures. Basically living backwards! (Evil). Now they’re stuck feeding on the emptiness of their desires. We see this form of feeding is through human sacrifice. It makes sense, as all living things move through the evolutionary food chain. It is described as “the relationship where energy is transferred to one another.” It is a fight for nutrients and resources. The first trick is convincing one into thinking that there is a lack of resources, then it becomes the fear of needing, leading to an unquenchable desire. It gets to a point of being so attached to our desires we forget that purpose creates a reason for existence. Purpose is our motivation to get the things we want (desire). A fine line is being drawn to those who need purpose and those who create purpose. Ascension will only be available to those who use their desires for a creative existence rather than using it as a form codependency to survive.
