Step into the crystal-punk world of LUCID, an upcoming action-platformer that blends golden-age 2D sidescroller nostalgia with modern design. Players take on the role of Oenn, a young Sentinel driven by a solemn promise, as they journey through a fractured land brimming with mystery, danger, and shimmering beauty.
The hand-crafted world of LUCID isn’t just gorgeous—it’s alive with challenge. As you explore, you’ll unlock powerful Crystal Arts that expand both movement and combat, letting you cut through enemies and bosses in fast-paced battles that push skill and precision to the forefront.
