| Nocturnal encourages challengers to brave its beautiful ruins with a host of optional trials. Those seeking the glory of a true challenge can enable a host of speedrunning features, like faster transitions, skippable cutscenes, and a pausable timer. Only the fiercest warriors will try their hand Permadeath Mode, where you only have one life to undertake the entire journey. What critics are saying: “If you like the genre and want something that has enough spark of inspiration to carry it through a few hours, it’s definitely worth investigating.” – Gaming Age “Keeps things refreshingly tight, presenting a solid action game with a cool core mechanic and a handful of new ideas” – God is a Geek “Nocturnal is a must-play title for fans of 2D action-platformers” – GameGrin |
