Platformer Elfscape: Ancestors is telling the story of a temple Guardian. She is asleep, waiting for the prophecy to come true - when the Chosen One shall descend underground, he'll fight a victorious battle against a Demon. One day, the Guardian is awakened, and she quickly realises the Chosen one is nowhere in sight. She needs to find him, and quickly - her life energy depends on it. Elfscape: Ancestors brings 24 levels, distributed into 6 environments, through which you'll be accompanied by an epic story told through visual-novel-like elements.

Hi all!

Elfscape: Ancestors is progressing really well, we basically have all the levels completed and now we will be continuing with some user testing. Apart from that, right now we’re mostly working on the game UI, map and small features.There’s not much progress to be shown on that yet, so today we want to show you a short gameplay of the finalized levels.

The gameplay videos are from the first two 2 lvel environments, green and purple, and they are accompanied by an epic soundtrack. The soundtrack is created by us and we hope you’ll love the unique feeling it adds to each environment.


Green environment can be divided into two parts. The first part uses a hand-drawn background with motifs of crystal cave and industrial buildings.

Green environment - crystals


The second part shows a silverfish nest - these silverfish live in a symbiosis with local flora, which has overgrown old bricks.

Green environment - silverfish



Purple environment is located inside a machine. Colors of this environment are cold and toxically aggressive. The walls are decorated with various ornaments that resemble computer circuit board, accompanied by glowing crystals in a contrast color.

Purple environment
