What is Hecaera: Awakened?

Hecaera Awakened is a souls-like fantasy story game where you play as Hecaera, this game is designed to be played in a Co-op/Multiplayer setting. Meaning that future phases of this boss will not be able to be played alone. (Currently only phase 1 is implemented, the boss is designed to have 4 phases.)

Due to the boss being designed for Multiplayer, the boss will indicate most attacks it does with ground indicators. Letting everyone in the encounter adapt to the boss with less issues.

Controls:

  • This game can be played with Mouse & Keyboard and with Controller. (Controller might have some issues with UI Menus).
  • To see the control scheme, press "Esc" or the "Options" button on your controller.

Known issues:

  • Teleport location of players when starting the encounter might be interrupted if players are moving. 
  • Some objects spawned by the boss might remain when it's killed during it's attack.
