Project Absentia

Project Absentia is a retro FPS inspired by 2000s–2010s Flash animations and sprite comics, centered on vertical, aerial and elemental combat. You play as Abby, an angel captured by the Orkan Corporation alongside her girlfriend, Aurora, and her best friend, Orion. Abby escapes with only a Tommy Gun, her ability to glide and her wits, and sets out to rescue her still-captive friends by jumping, gliding and gaining the high ground against her enemies.

Levels and combat

The large levels are built around physical locations, including lived-in mines, castles, apartments, entertainment districts and derelict ships. Weapons are scattered throughout them. You can freeze enemies with the Hailer, blast them apart with Missile Launchers, drain their health with Blitzcraig—a man-eating plant—or use a double-barreled shotgun. The armory also includes the Rainbowitzer.

Interactive environments

You can interact with elements such as vending machines, breakable glass, mini-golf, water coolers and mirrors.

Characters and options

The cast of characters is fully voice acted. Accessibility options include subtitles, speech control and adjustable FOV, among others.
