Nemea
A downloadable game for Windows
After her three children's disappearance, the Mother followed clues that lead her to the demon, who attempted to sacrifice her children's souls for dark power.
The demon was defeated, yet her children remained lifeless. Determined to revive them, she sacrificed her own life.
As the Mother's soul faded, her children's spirits merged and were reborn as one in her arms. Among the mist of grief and joy, she vanished into the moonlight.
The child of the miracle---- Nemea, carries the graced name after her mother, and begins her journey.
NEMEA is a video game with hand-drawn graphics, inspired by games such as Castlevania, Hollow Knight, Zelda, and Kirby. It is still being developed, so some features may change in the future. If you have played the game and like it, please feel free to kindly leave a review. You are also welcome to post gameplay! If you encountered any bugs in the game, feel free to leave a comment or PM me on Twitter. At this stage, my main focus is to achieve interesting ideas and make the game more engaging and exciting.
I'm doing the art and programming for the game all by myself. I learned how to draw and animate through Hollow Knight, which explains why the game looks similar to it. I'm still figuring out my own art style. I bought the music and SFX from Unity asset store, but I will replace them with better ones soon.
If you want to support the game's development, you can become a Patreon and get more info about it. You can also follow me on Twitter for updates.

The game is very pretty, the game-play is very interesting and very cool, I really like the game, one thing could make it better, slow down the boss a little bit, Keep the hard work !!
thanks!
The game is absolutely stunning! Had a blast playing it and wanting to see a full version, am hoping for one =) took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out there was a destroyable wall with a key haha. Lost to the boss but plan on beating him off camera, woulda on recording but have a long trip today xD keep it up and left a follow!!!!
Loved the art style and the little touches like the tent animation. The combat and ability's need a touch up and White Widow needs their speed brought down juuuuust a smidge but overall a very good homage to Hollow Knight and would love to see what you come up with next.
Thanks! I am working on new feature!
Thanks for the game-play , the boss is really hard to beat !
its good but small issue it is hollow knight in every way but worse
Thanks for comment! I konw it's bad to make a worse version of hollow knight! I am still working on build my art style. Could you please tell me what part in demo gives you strongest hollow knight feeling ? And do you have the same feeling about two enemy in demo? Do you like the tent?
mostly the combat
This is really cool! I can see the inspiration from hollow knight and the art style is really nice! The only gripe I have would be the same as everyone which is the boss. It's kind of hard to find an opening or when to strike without losing health. However since this has been addressed before, I just want to say keep up with the development! Can't wait to see new things in a future demo!
Thanks!
really good looking game and I really liked the gameplay as well ! Really good work ! Cheers
well , made it to the boss but he isway too fast and such.
cant even get in one hit before I get killed :-(
Try to hit her when she land and dash to you. Don't try to hit her when she dash up! I'm going to remake white widow because she is something I created a long time ago and she is indeed too fast :-)
Also, you can become a light fairy to abvoid damage, but it needs timing.
didnt really understand what the whole white/black fairy thing was or did.
sure it did a short animation if i held A or D keys.
but no idea what I got from that or how it was related to the black white ying yang symbol in the top left
My fault, I should add ui to explain it. I am so familiar with the system myself that I forgot others are not. I have already started to improve it! :)
Hi, I have updated the demo, and added ui to explain what is black/white soul. Hope it can make things clearer! And the boss white widow is still in progress.
Hello Softme, my name is Bruno, I make indie game gameplays on YouTube, here in Brazil, I want to congratulate you for the great project, the game has a lot of potential.
