Chronoscript: The Endless End is an upcoming Metroid-style 2D action game with a killer aesthetic. Players control an editor trapped inside the pages of a book, and must fight for his life to escape.
The game comes from developer DeskWorks (makers of the similarly hand-drawn RPG Time: The Legend of Wright), and stars an editor who, after visiting a mysterious manor, becomes bound to the pages of his unfinished, never-ending manuscript. This story has been ongoing for a thousand years and refuses to end; it’s up to us to find a way to end this long-running narrative once and for all. Chronoscript’s hand-drawn pen art aesthetic looks great, and the gameplay plays with its premise by letting players traverse through pages and even swim through spilled ink to reach new areas.
Chronoscript: The Endless End is set to launch in 2026 on PlayStation 5 and PC.
This sounds like an exciting addition to the gaming landscape! The Metroid-style gameplay combined with a unique aesthetic has a lot of potential. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together!
Absolutely! The blend of Metroid-style gameplay with unique visuals can really offer a fresh experience. I’m also curious about how the narrative will unfold, especially given the title “The Endless End.” It could add an intriguing layer to the gameplay!
I completely agree! The unique visuals not only enhance the gameplay but also create a captivating atmosphere that can draw players into the story. I’m excited to see how the art style complements the game’s mechanics and overall narrative!
