About Aeternum
Aeternum is a side-scrolling danmaku shoot ’em up in which you guide Ellica through waves of enemies firing masses of bullets, then face bosses with intricately scripted bullet patterns. Ellica studies Demonic Magic at Aeternum Academy, one of the realm’s most prestigious schools. When her best friend Macy goes missing, Ellica sets out to investigate a rash of student disappearances.
Story and setting
In Story Mode, you help Ellica unravel the mystery of the missing students. Along the way, she must contend with a crazed groundskeeper, an overzealous hall monitor and waves of wayward flying cats. You can turn off the dialogue to focus on dodging bullets.
Modes and difficulty
Alongside Story Mode, Arrange mode offers a more advanced scoring experience, while Pacifist Mode prevents you from shooting back. The game has five difficulty levels, from Easy to Lunatic.
Stages and bosses
Aeternum has five stages and eight full boss fights. Its original cast, story and setting accompany its bullet-dodging action.
Music
The soundtrack features 17 original chip-pop synth tracks by Jesse Bishop.
