In the fractured realm of Eclipsara, three sisters—Iris, the forsaken oracle; Medeea, a rogue alchemist; and Lazuli, a star-bound engineer—are bound by a celestial pact gone awry. After unearthing an ancient chronolith that warps biology and time, they’re cursed with "Echoed Fates," a condition that links their vitality to unstable dimensional rifts. To survive, they must navigate surreal biomes where flora pulses with parasitic energy and gravity bends to their deteriorating states. But as their bodies mutate under the lith’s influence, trust frays: Will they mend the timeline or succumb to the metamorphosis devouring their souls?
Gameplay Mechanics
Symbiotic Strain System – Manage shared “Vitality Nodes” between characters; overusing Medeea’s alchemy drains Lazuli’s tech energy, forcing strategic cooldowns.
Rift Resonance Puzzles – Manipulate environmental distortions (e.g., amplify a biome’s gravitational pull to compress swollen terrain, revealing hidden paths).
Echoed Fate Events – Randomly triggered mutations (temporary tentacle appendages, fluid retention) alter abilities—embrace them to solve puzzles or resist for narrative rewards.
Standout Elements
Biological Clock Dynamics – Each character’s “Strain Meter” affects puzzle solutions; high bloat slows movement but grants crushing strength, while desperation enhances sensory perception.
Chrono-Fabrication Crafting – Harvest rift shards to build tools that temporarily reverse mutations, risking backlash if misused (e.g., a serum easing inflation might attract void leeches).
Triangulated Endings – Choices in one sister’s path rewrite another’s timeline—save Iris from corruption, and Lazuli’s tech becomes inert; prioritize Medeea, and the lith’s song drives allies mad.
Player Strategies
Leverage Mutation Peaks – Time puzzle-solving during maximum bodily stress phases for enhanced abilities, but monitor collapse thresholds.
Decode Lith Harmonics – Each biome emits unique frequency patterns; match them to character voice lines to stabilize unstable zones.
Sacrifice Synergy – Occasionally let one sister absorb corruption to cleanse others’ meters, unlocking secret dialogues that hint at true ending requirements.
