Underworld

About the Game 

Underworld is a 2D pixel-art action-adventure platformer set in a haunting sci-fi realm deep beneath the surface. You play as a nano-enhanced swordsman, awakened by a mysterious AI after being left for dead in the ruins of a forgotten world. With your body rebuilt and your mind linked to advanced technology, you're the last hope to stop the growing corruption spreading through the depths. Explore a nonlinear world filled with dangerous creatures, hidden secrets, and lost souls. Every step forward requires precision, courage, and a sharp blade. Inspired by Metroidvania exploration and Souls-like combat, Underworld challenges you to think, adapt, and survive in a beautifully decayed futuristic landscape.
