Perennial Order is an action role-playing video game developed by Gardenfiend Games and published by SOEDESCO.

About

Perennial Order is a 2D plant horror boss rush, set in an atmospheric Dark Age world plagued by nature-infested horrors.

Explore a mysterious world alone or with a friend, uncover a story through unusual NPCs, and cut down terrifying eldritch bosses, all in a painterly 2D style.

We like to describe Perennial Order as Hollow Knight meets Titan Souls—a beautiful dark atmosphere to explore, with boss-rush focused gameplay.

David vs. Goliath Combat

• Uncover a unique boss around every corner that will test you in different ways.
• Intense combat that utilizes twin stick melee controls.
• One-Hit-Death. Respawn directly at the beginning of an encounter to learn quickly from your actions; spend your time fighting rather than walking.

Captivating 2D Style

• A painterly 2D art style with a dark fantasy inspiration.
• Themes and visuals akin to the world designs of titles like Dark Souls and Princess Mononoke.
• Painstakingly crafted by one artist and one animator. We are developing the visual identity of Perennial Order through realistic, painterly techniques combined with 2D Spine animation.
