About
Nocturnal is an action game where you play as Ardeshir, a soldier of the Enduring Flame, returning to his homeland, Nahran, after many years of absence.
Following the appearance of a mysterious Mist, the island has recently fallen into chaos, and Ardeshir must wield his flaming sword and use powerful abilities to confront its mysteries and free Nahran.
Repel a dynamically generated Mist that reacts to the flames of your sword.
Carry your flames across Nahran: your blade can also ignite the environment, activate mechanisms, and even destroy creatures born from the Mist.
Defeat enemies and explore the environment to collect ash, which can be offered to Phoenix statues. You'll gain new skills and bonuses vital for your survival.
Explore a compact island offering a streamlined experience centered around a singular concept. (game length: around 3 hours)

Está bueno, fachero, unas 4 horitas bien dadas o mucho menos si no eres manco como yo
It's a good, beautiful, and very short game with (almost) no annoying controls, which to me is a rarity among side-scroll rpg-ish games. It also runs super smooth on my not-very-good laptop, too! But all that, for 17€? I probably wouldn't. Wait for a discount :)
很有创意,有火就不会死,余烬和神凰的对决
Cara, simplesmente não tenho palavras, gostei demais do jogo, a cada fase e boss eu pensava algo tipo "É sério que esses caras meteram uma bomba dessas pra eu matar?", e quando passava da fase ou boss era simplesmente um pulo da cadeira, eu gostei demais desse jogo e vou jogar o segundo jogo também.
体量虽然没有太大,但也不失为一款好玩的游戏
iyi
Schönes, kurzes Spiel mit einem sehr tollen Artstyle und einem wirklich guten Combat-system. Dennoch würde ich es aber nur im Sale kaufen, da 16 Euro einfach zu viel für ca. 3 Stunden Gameplay sind; da ich es aber gratis bekommen hab, kann ich mich nicht beschweren
I've not been vibing with this game. Contorls feel clunky and for a platformer it was not inspiring me to continue playing it. The central theme is fire: upgrade weapon with fire, throwing dagger with fire, use fire to hit (special) torches for progress and keeping the fire going. Combat was simple. Camera work in certain placed quite bad and causes awkward deaths as you cannot see the next platform; Otherwise camera is decent. Music and sound felt flat to me. Might be worth considering when free or for a couple of euro's. But the original asking price of 17 euro's, that's hard pass for me.
Short, but competently-made. Nocturnal has, pretty much all I could ask for for a game its length. A good story you can follow, good gameplay and level-design, enough variety, both in enemies and mechanics to keep things fresh for its duration and an accessible difficulty level. It also runs quite smoothly, though that's to be expected. There's customization, collectibles, a cool graphical style and good music. Normally, my reviews are longer but honestly, Nocturnal hits the mark. The game leaves you wanting more by the end. There isn't any real replayability ; You can get all of the collectibles in one run with surprising ease given its genre The price it goes for on sale is quite fair in my opinion. Though a lot of folks got it for free during a giveway a while back. Overall, I'd give the game a 9/10
Très court mais sympa ! Nocturnal nous propose des combats dynamiques et embrasés dans un univers sombre et énigmatique. Le style graphique "dessin animé" est vraiment propre, les détails du décors, comme des animations, sont très soignés. Coup de cœur pour l'audio que je trouve particulièrement réussi et qui nous offre une remarquable immersion. Coté gameplay, une mécanique principale assez innovante et plutôt bien équilibrée, sur un fond de maniabilité classique, simple, intuitive et efficace. Pour le prix, j'ai obtenu Nocturnal gratuitement. Le jeu se platine en 2 heures sans trop de difficulté... Néanmoins, je recommande.
