Step out of the forest as a lone warrior and stride toward the ominous lair of the Insect God. In this 2D retro-inspired action platformer, every swing of your spear brings you closer to destiny as you confront brutal foes and dark mysteries. Your quest centers on uncovering the secrets of the Insect God while pursuing a mysterious woman whose fate is entwined with this cursed domain.

A narrative-driven adventure, Obey the Insect God unfolds like a mythic odyssey drawn from ancient lore and the Kalevala. Explore what lies beneath the surface of the Insect God’s lair, piecing together fragments of a story that echoes through the walls and whispers in the shadows.

Combat is brutal and deliberately skilled. Master combos to launch enemies into the air, time perfect blocks to stun adversaries, and unleash a lineage of devastating skills that you unlock as you push deeper into the god’s domain.

The world rewards curiosity and persistence as you chart your own route through its haunting corridors.
