The Comyths

The Comyths is a fast-paced, top-down action game built around six Scholars who wield the forces of Space, Time, Matter, Life, Mind and Void. Five Scholars awaken in Forn with no memories, guided by an AI that wears the face of their strongest companion—the one who killed them. As they travel through strange worlds, they question the path set before them and who they are meant to become.

The Scholars

Each Scholar has distinct abilities:

• Kunu (Space): Teleport, banish enemies into pocket dimensions and collapse the battlefield with black holes.
• Evum (Time): Set checkpoints, rewind failed moments, and slow or stop time to control combat.
• Yusa (Matter): Chain explosive barriers, break terrain rules and pressure enemies with artillery.
• Heva (Life): Command evolving summons, drain enemies to sustain yourself and fill arenas with living forces.
• Nimu (Mind): Brainwash enemies, create illusions and turn encounters against themselves.
• Yvon (Void): Spread void trails, infect levels and consume enemies caught in your domain.

Objectives and bosses

Combat runs revolve around four objectives, presented in a shuffled order each time:

• Reach: Move through marked orb points before time runs out.
• Destroy: Eliminate enemy waves within a strict time limit.
• Secure: Hold a designated area against incoming threats.
• Survive: Endure escalating assaults without exceeding the hit limit.

Boss encounters use the same structure. Complete objectives within a hit limit to destabilize a boss, then attack during a short, high-intensity Break Phase.

Story and progression

Fully voice-acted story chapters are available at any time, so you can uncover the narrative at your own pace. Instant checkpoints and quick restarts keep runs moving, while performance grades reflect objective completion, time and hit count. You can aim for S-ranks, which also unlock alternate-universe artwork and collectible gallery rewards.

Runs feature varied enemy combinations and evolving hazards across distinct biomes. The game includes 26 original soundtracks tailored to each Scholar, level run and boss encounter.
