Indie publisher Firenut Games announced Chrysolite, a narrative-driven, pixel-art 2D Metroidvania-inspired platformer, coming to Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC later this year.
Developed by solo developer José Manuel Conesa Hernández, Chrysolite is a lovingly crafted platformer that engages players with its intriguing narrative and simple, yet challenging gameplay and uses hand-drawn illustrations to advance the narrative.
A brooding knight sits in front of a fire, the darkness surrounding him. His sword plunged into the ground, covered in the dried blood of his enemies. He warns you against going any further, but the intrigue of what lies beyond far surpasses your instinct of self-preservation.
Play as a young thief and explore the dangerous remains of a once-prosperous kingdom. Fight against hordes of terrifying monsters and make your way through challenging platforming sections to uncover the clues to unlock the dark story of the last days of the kingdom.
Chrysolite is participating in the Metroidvania Fusion Steam Event running from 4 -11 March, where fans can download the very first demo for the game for free as well as try out other exciting indie Metroidvana inspired indie games.
Chrysolite will launch for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam) later in 2024.

Step into the gumshoes of Lady Luck (voiced by Debi Mae West, Metal Gear Solid’s Meryl Silverburgh), a revered former occult detective fated to return for one final job: taking down her former Coven. Her departure was less than amicable; last time, she lost her left hand. Too tired to fight fate any longer, and with more overdue bills than bucks to her name, Lady Luck strikes out to Steeple City with cursed deck in hand, ready to track down everyone from her past life.
Slink through a hard-boiled city rife with taboo, where knowledge of ritual magic and possession of cursed artifacts separate the haves and the have-nots. Wield Lady Luck’s cursed cards to cast a smoke-based menagerie of magic. Navigate around patrolling ruffians by Evaporating into smoke. Faced with a group of huddled-up goons? Even the odds by intertwining their fates with the Chain Smoker card — now any cards cast affect them all at once. Snuff them out with a lethal card, or choose an affliction to help Lady Luck sneak right past.
Silently take out enemies using powerful card and state combos. Inaccessible guard causing problems with a spotlight? Take him out by marking his position with a Hex card, which tags any target within line of sight. Once Hexed, other cards combo with this state, like Peekaboo, which teleports the player behind any Hexed target in view. While lurking behind the unsuspecting goon, you don't need a card to know a silent takedown is the next play to get through.
Upgrade the deck and assemble the perfect hand for each highly replayable level, all built to encourage experimentation. Stick to subterfuge with Glimpse to see enemies behind walls and blind them with Ignorance to slip by undetected. Become a wickeder witch by taking out guards in one shot with Hand Cannon.
Discover hidden passwords to access secret pathways through speakeasies and interrogate former friends of Lady Luck’s ex-coven to settle "old debts." Gain new powers, intel, and cards to bring the coven leader in. Just hope the cards pulled come out in Lady Luck’s favor.
Sleight of Hand will be released on Xbox Series X|S and PC via Xbox Game Pass and Steam in 2025.
