A BRAND NEW NEWSVANIA

a "Newsvania" is my cheeky term for a "metroidvania"—what makes it different, if anything, is an added emphasis on story, reading, and the NEWS. Aesthetically, this "Newsvania" features hand-crafted pixel art and animation.

fight foes with pen & ink

  • Swap pen nibs with the flick of a wrist!
    Each upgradable nib offers unique attack patterns, speeds, and hitboxes.
  • Unleash Powerful Strikes by Charging up!
    You can charge up your pen and release it to devastating effect! This technique is best used in situations where you won't be hit.
  • Trick Pens offer alternative strategies!
    In addition to regular nibs, Faye's pen offers a slot for a Trick Pen. These unique nibs typically do not use an ink reservoir for traditional combat interviews—their purpose is to "switch things up." Pictured right: the folding nib.

a newsworthy story & setting

On January 21st, 27xx, president captain evil declared: "all news is now illegal. Those found guilty of reporting, reading, or otherwise having anything to do with the news will be executed....with great prejudice."

With his declaration, millions perished in what is now known as "The Great News Purge." In a landscape devoid of NEWS, a reporter journeys into the heart of AMERICA, hunting for TRUTH. Her name: Faye Freelance.
