Souls-like metroidvania Ghost Song is now on Kickstarter

Indie developer Old Moon announced their Souls-like metroidvania game Ghost Song is now on Kickstarter.

While Ghost Song is now on Kickstarter, they’ve hit their funding goal but they have a bunch of stretch goals – some of which will bring the game to non-PC platforms. For now, it’s set for a release on Windows PC (via Steam).

Here’s the Kickstarter trailer:

Here’s a rundown on the game:

On the desolate moon of Lorian V, a long-dormant Deadsuit awakens from slumber—armed and combat-ready, memory clear of purpose. But something new is stirring…

Strike out beneath the surface in search of answers in Ghost Song, an atmospheric 2D adventure of self-discovery, ancient mysteries, and cosmic terror. Explore winding caverns lit only by bioluminescent flora, battle strange and powerful creatures, and acquire new abilities to help you unearth this alien world’s long-buried secrets.

Descend deep into the darkness—only then will you learn (or is it remember?) the truth.
