Today’s Spotlight is about Remnants of Naezith, a fast-paced grappling hook platformer by Tolga Ay that came out back in February.
You play as Kayra, a human that has been infused with the power of Naezith, an ancient thunder dragon that was shattered to pieces and spread across the world. Naezith has sent you on a quest to destroy his remaining fragments so that they can’t be used by the forces of evil.
At it’s heart, Remnants of Naezith is a momentum-based grappling hook platformer with a heavy emphasis on speed running. Compete with other players in the online leaderboards or race their ghosts to learn a few new tricks.
Once you managed to blitz through the game’s official levels then you can check out what the community came up with using the game’s map editor. You can check out the original launch trailer above.
You can find Remnants of Naezith on Windows PC, Mac, and Linux via Steam for $9.99.
