Bane of Blackmore

Play as Aileen, the last surviving witchcraft practitioner of the Blackmore Family. In the aftermath of the Witchhunts that tormented the land of Ybod, Aileen embarks on a quest for vengeance to lay her slain bloodline to rest. But tread carefully—the pestiferous energies teeming within these beasts will corrupt your very soul.

Developed for Indie Game Academy's 2024 Founder's Jam.

Dev Note: We have multiple builds available to play. Our submission build was our production milestone and hard stop for Founder's Jam. The following builds up to our latest push include bug fixes and polish, currently scheduled to continue until the end of June 2024. Thank you!

Explore Vellispin, a northern ghost town of Ybod, and uncover the story of its fallen people through mysterious puzzle-solving.

Surrounding you are the wretched spoils of war, longstanding gifts of nature, and the essence of Blackmore's potent magic. Craft using the generational knowledge passed down to you in your Notebook.

There are treacherous monstrosities inhabiting the land of Ybod. Take great care and engage in bloodthirsty combat to defend against corruption.
