Plead with the Elder Gods
A downloadable game
Reclaim What You Have Lost
Journey to plead with four elder gods to reclaim the life you once had.
Most pilgrims appeal to a single god, but what you’re asking for is beyond a single god’s power.
Plead with the Elder Gods is a melancholy 3D metroidvania adventure in a large interconnected fantasy world. Explore snowy canyons, lush forests, ancient ritual sites and long forgotten settlements; befriend and clash with other pilgrims; and gain the favor of the gods in order to reach your goal.
Features:
- Explore a large, interconnected world
Navigate a dark but beautiful world full of intertwining pathways, unlockable shortcuts, and hidden passages.
- Choose your own path
The domain of the elder gods is vast, and there is a lot to explore. You choose which path you go down, and which you leave for later.
- Receive gifts from the gods
Gain divine abilities that allow you to progress through previously unreachable areas. Grow horns that let you see more than the average human. Sprout wings to glide long distances. Transform your sword hand into a hardened spike, and pierce through various obstacles.
- Equip occult sigils
Find or receive magical symbols which will boost or change your core abilities. Equip a combination that suits your needs.
- Unravel the mysteries of the world
Meet peculiar characters, examine ancient artifacts, explore secret areas, and piece together the secrets of the gods.
- Battle people and beasts who have lost their “Heart”
Use your divine abilities to survive the perilous pilgrimage, and claim your enemies’ “Heart” as your own.

I just noticed that the Steam page for this game was taken down. Is this game still in development?
Hi there.
The long and short of it is, no, the game is regrettably no longer in active development. As such, my main concern was potentially misleading customers with a game that might not come out at all, which is why I decided to take the Steam page down (and hide the Itch page from my Itch profile as well).
I do want to come back to the project eventually (but not for a long while), but when/if I do, I will have to scale the project down and make a lot of changes, which was not reflected on the Steam page, either. This is why I didn't think it was a good idea to keep gathering wishlists for the game, since people would essentially be wishlisting a version of the game they will never receive.
I wrote an update about the state of the project a while back here on Itch, but I don't think it reached many people, so I understand you (and others) not knowing about it. You can read it here for more information: https://itch.io/blog/746953/an-announcement-regarding-the-state-of-potentially-odd-and-plead-with-the-elder-god
I was hoping you guys would do some kind of 'full version' of the jam!
Run cycle/animation looks a bit off and goofy, but everything else looks super promising!

Awesome I can't wait! I loved the first game.
Thank you! It will be quite a while before the game is out, but we'll have more to show soon. Just needed to have a page up, so we could show what the game was about to some events etc. Which is why we didn't make any big announcements yet :D
Hell yeah!
