Summum Aeterna
PLAY THE SEQUEL
Aeterna is a Roguelite game that combines world crawler mechanics never seen before in the genre with a fast-paced combat system and a unique 2D art style.
Taking the role of the King of Darkness, a mighty, powerful, and badass warlord condemned to eternal life, you’ll explore uncharted worlds populated with treasures, traps, hordes of enemies and powerful bosses.
Explore wild territories, descend into the most dangerous depths of Aeterna, and fight your way to the end of each world… If you can!
Classic Roguelite vibes
The King of Darkness may be immortal… But he can still be defeated. You will start your adventure over and over again, that’s how this kind of games works, right? Don’t panic, even if you’re defeated, you still keep some of the stuff and upgrades you earned the last time you lived… Some of them, at least.
Summum Aeterna allows players to keep their progress, featuring a permanent character and world upgrade system. No matter how many times you’re defeated, your progression in the skill tree will be saved, as well as the world improvements you unlocked will last forever.
Random worlds
Summum Aeterna includes a unique world generator system never seen before in the genre, the Seed Mechanic… Each one generates a unique world with different enemy behavior, special events, and even a larger map size, depending on the rarity and the genes contained in the germinated seed.
The world modifiers, so-called “seed genes” are positive and negative attributes included in each seed you find. They will determine the dangers, encounters and rewards waiting for you once you start playing. You can generate the world that best suits your playstyle.
Seeds create worlds and genes make each seed different from the last, and so will the worlds generated from them!
Brutal fast-paced combat
The key to surviving in Summum Aeterna is killing every single living (or undead, depending on the enemy) being you encounter. How to achieve that? Well, you play as a cursed monarch… Your weapons are crafted for a king!
Show no mercy, use your swords, pistols, and scythes to make them beg for their miserable lives before they do the same to you… You will choose a starting weapon at the beginning of each world, but you can switch it for a better one, whatever its type… It’s up to you and your skills!
Summum Aeterna also includes weapon customization options thanks to the gems, precious stones that increase weapon attributes and add cool upgrades. Add new offensive and passive capabilities and improve the combat performance of your weapons by embedding gems. You can also ascend your weapons to Summum level and unchained their true power by collecting specific diagrams!
Custom adventures
In Summum Aeterna you can define your own adventure. Each world will give you lots of rewards, including new seeds and currencies to upgrade your character skills, unlock new weapons, make the ones you already have even more deadly and, of course, improve the world’s attributes.
You can unlock new special rooms, increase the rarity of the ítems you find, and alter the world conditions by the world upgrade menu. You can also modify the rarity of your current seeds by mutating their genes, or recycling the ones you don’t want to get a seed with higher rarity…
Multiplayer leaderboard
Summum Aeterna features an interesting multiplayer and cross-platform feature, the so-called “Board of Champions”.This mechanic records the highest level seed completed in the shortest time possible by each competitor. There is a leaderboard for influenced seeds and another one for standard seeds.
The reward for being in the top 3 places in the qualifier will be a gold, silver or bronze crown, which his highness will wear in-game regardless of the player’s skin, and as long as the player remains on the podium. Do you want your King of Darkness to be crowned as every monarch deserves?

充满神秘色彩的肉鸽类魂恶魔城
《Summum Aeterna/永恒之巅》(个人翻译)是一款2D横版轻度肉鸽类魂恶魔城游戏,为《Aeterna Noctis/永恒之夜》的前作。就游戏体验而言核心内容还是肉鸽玩法,不过难度还是很高的(来自空洞骑士4门玩家的感想),此外游戏目前不支持中文, 可能对英语苦手玩家的体验会不太好。下面简单介绍一下游戏的优缺点~
优点
第一,《Summum Aeterna》的地图极为广阔。个人游玩了2-3小时,死了应该有七八次,其中死亡复活挑选地图的玩法较为新奇,其中有几个道具可供选择,不同道具分别对应不同地图(比如圣殿、天堂、宇宙)。武器有枪、镰刀、剑三种(目前就玩到这三种),武器样貌较为多样,如翡翠镰刀(自带中毒效果)、烈焰剑(自带燃烧效果)等,与游戏核心玩法较为贴切。同样,多种多样的地图和路线也给玩家带来了全新的挑战,同时散乱的剧情碎片也夹杂在随机的地图中,地图的碎片化也使剧情的拼凑变得困难,但其游戏地图的内容丰富性和多样的随机地图,也能让玩家在游戏世界中十分享受。
第二,那就是游戏难度极高,体现在场景的地形方面。游戏中有部分折磨地形,给我的感觉就像《Hollow Knight》中的白宫,缝合入了整个游戏一般,对玩家操作要求还是比较高的。当然,体验下来也适合喜欢挑战自我的肉鸽游戏爱好者游玩。
第三,游戏的肉鸽基本要素充足。如其中有类似hades的生命,伤害永久提升系统,能显著提升玩家多次游玩兴趣。另外武器的护符较多,游戏中可以给武器附上不同效果护符,例如毒护符、燃烧护符、伤害护符等,可以对武器进行不同护符的搭配以达到最优效果。
第四,游戏的复古风格与带有部分摇滚风格的配乐令人眼前一亮,带给玩家沉浸感的体验。游戏的美工,音乐都较为出色,小怪类型也较为多样,例如天使、卫士、骑士、巫师等,不会给人生硬、单调的感觉。
第五,新手引导内容较为充分,萌新玩家也能快速上手,而恶魔城游戏中经典特性二段跳在一开始就提供到给玩家,所以对新玩家还是比较友好的。PS:游戏城镇入口还有一个可爱的木桩,打他会不停的喊疼。
缺点
第一,游戏暂无中文,英语苦手了解剧情会有不小阻碍,其次对游戏整体玩法及框架影响较大。
第二,游戏的Boss难度较高,且Boss战无存档点,导致了正常玩家游戏体验较差,必须游玩较长时间才能与心爱的Boss展开酣畅淋漓的一战(Doge.jpg)。
第三,游戏暂处于抢先测试阶段,许多玩法、地图都还未完善。同时最令人激动的创意工坊也未开放测试,玩法和人物皮肤都略显单薄。
小结
出色的美术和优秀的类银河战士恶魔城玩法,构成了《Summum Aeterna》这款优秀的游戏,不过还有部分令人遗憾的小缺点值得游戏官方认真进行修正。如果喜欢挑战高难度恶魔城游戏的玩家,也有一定英语水准的话,那么不妨试试这款游戏。

牛逼,这么好玩的游戏为什么没人推荐,除了打击感可能一般,其他我觉得都很好,不是特别难的关卡,但是还充满机遇性,为甚恶魔玩的人这么少

前期过于漫长和痛苦这也是游戏冷门的根本原因但玩起来本质不错,中后期慢慢好起来,游戏性不错 ,可惜的是换新电脑存档覆盖了网上也找不到存档,好不容易的磨合期使我不得不放弃这个游戏,

这个工作室的游戏质量挺高的 另外一款类银河也不错。除了打击感稍差一点之外 剧情内容长度可玩性很足。做游戏挺用心的。但就是没什么热度。游戏有些地方听搞人心态。
