MIXTURE – GAMEPLAY

Mixture is an action-adventure self-co-op VR game where you control two characters simultaneously – Sola, The Moth Knight, and The Alchemist.

Lead the daring Moth Knight, navigating environments and battling enemies. Use her wing-like cape and lethal scythe, upgrading your tools of the trade along the way. Sola is a dynamic fighter, adapting to any situation, instantly changing direction and position. She can conjure powerful dashes or spread her wings and glide through the air.

Use the Moth Knight’s deadly weapon – the scythe, with two modes – which can be wielded for a variety of slashing and stabbing combos. The scythe also expands the Moth Knight’s adventuring abilities. It allows Sola to climb vertically on coarse surfaces and sharply change directions midair. Finally, it provides her with a devastating aerial dive attack.

At the same time, act as The Alchemist to interact with the world of solid substances by modifying their qualities with hand-crafted alchemy. Your hands can magnetically attract base elements. Using simple hand gestures, you combine them through alchemic processes, concocting bottled mixtures. As the game progresses, the range of available alchemic formulas grows, too.

Cast powerful mixtures at incoming enemies or alchemy-vulnerable areas with a variety of powerful transmuting effects. Learn alchemy’s offensive, tactical, and problem-solving uses through practice.

MIXTURE – STORY

Centuries ago, mighty Alchemists threatened The Realm of Matter, protected by The Order of Knights. After the long war, all Alchemists were captured and imprisoned. Each Alchemist was kept separately in a different hidden area of The Realm to lessen the possibility that all Alchemists might ever break free together at once.

However, suddenly in five different parts of The Realm, alchemy has clearly started to revive – aggressive golems attack peaceful wanderers, and acidic storms eat away at ancient structures.

Sola used to be of The Light, but her greed has turned her into an outcast in moth-shaped armor.

Exiled, she traverses dangerous, barren worlds of living metals, ores, and crystals to find means of redemption. To achieve this, she reluctantly frees and forms a pact with one of the imprisoned Alchemists.

Together, they form a force to be reckoned with, but there might be a price to pay for fusing Light and Alchemy.

Mixture is being developed by the Polish studio Played With Fire and will launch first on Meta Quest 2 and later on PS VR2.
