blessfrey is a 2D action RPG developed for PC by chimchooree.

The game is designed to pit your skill + creativity against a series of combat + puzzle challenges while exploring the depths of the downtown dungeon.

Class progression is freeform, and virtually no decision is permanent. At character creation, you will choose a permanent First Class, but you can unlock several new classes for multiclassing through gameplay. Through swapping out Second Classes, you can find a combination to express your playstyle.

Each class has its own style of skills associated with it. Skills are individual powers gained through gameplay which give specific effects according to their rules. Your skillbar only has 8 skill slots and can only be edited in safe areas. The challenge comes from building winning strategies + synergies against the next area.

Skills are gained through exploration of the game world. As you encounter enemies, meet people, and reach new areas, you will translate those experiences into new skills. There are multiple paths to learning, so you can focus on parts of the game you prefer.

blessfrey has been lots of fun to work on. I hope you enjoy it once a demo and eventually a game drops.
