Combat combines a scythe, a selected firearm, celestial powers, passive effects, holy fire, and time manipulation. The run structure passes through the Sunless Gate and the Scoured Path. Dying resets the current attempt while some currencies and character improvements survive, creating the long-term progression layer.

This is a pre-release product dossier, not a review. The old demo can establish its own dated content, but it cannot prove the final game's balance, performance, enemy route, best weapon, or complete progression economy. Those require the retail build and a disclosed version.
