The wait is over, Dreamers. The Being and Becoming open playtest is LIVE NOW on Steam!
Dive into a world where gorgeous, handcrafted pixel art meets a nightmare that warps reality itself. As a rare lucid dreamer, you are the only hope to defy the prophecy of The Word and consume the spirits of the corrupted to save what remains of a dying kingdom.
What’s waiting for you in the Playtest?
- The Beginning of the Nightmare: Play through the game’s intro and explore multiple hauntingly beautiful locations.
- Master Your Arsenal: Experiment with a redesigned combat system featuring stamina mechanics and both light/heavy weapon archetypes (like the Exalted Axe and Cleaver).
- Face the Corruption: Challenge two epic bosses and a variety of regular enemies, including the swarm-heavy “Ghosts.”
- New Movement Abilities: Test out the new Slide move, ledge-clinging, and improved platforming responsiveness.
How to Join:
- Head over to the Being and Becoming Steam page.
- Look for the “Join the Being and Becoming Playtest” banner.
- Click “Request Access” and dive into the Collective Dream!
Release Window Update: We are also thrilled to announce that the full journey begins in 2026!
Don’t let the beauty of the forest or the grandeur of the cathedral lull your vigilance—the deeper you descend, the more treacherous it becomes.
