Press release:
June 21, 2024.
The Marseille-based (France) indie games publisher PixelHeart and Toulouse.based (France) indie games developer Dreamirl, are today very glad and thrilled to announce that their frenetic metroidvania “Noreya: The Gold Project“, is now available for PC via Steam for a price of 27.99 EUR | USD, with a 15% off during the first week (the game will arrive to all consoles in the future).

Venture into a frenetic metroidvania and take part in a fight between divinities where you will have to choose between Corrupting Gold and Purifying Light to achieve your ends. The game offers players a choice between allegiance to the Gods of Light and Shadow or the gods of Corruption and Gold! But be careful! Decisions made in the game affect your progression by changing the available paths and abilities.

“I am proud of what we did with Noreya: The Gold Project, I think it is a really good, beautiful and unique game, and there is a lot of content to enjoy it for more than 20 hours. I am really excited (and stressed) to see what the players will think of it, and if they will understand and find everything I imagined and hidden throughout the game”. – Antoine “Inateno”, CEO and Creative Director and Game Designer.

Salluste, the God of Avarice, took power over the city of Lemia after imprisoning the Goddess of Light. Kali, a fighter who lost everything at the hands of the gods, sets out for the city to verify the rumors surrounding this new god who corrupts and subjugates humans in exchange for wealth.

Explore the City of Gold and its cathedral, confront the creatures of shadow and gold, pledge allegiance to the god of your choice to embody their power, or detach yourself from the gods and suffer their wrath.
