Sound Waves fit for Slaughter – Resonant Blade Launches on July 22nd

Music-driven pixel-based Hack-and-Slash built entirely by single developer debuts this month

Wise Wombat Games, a single-developer studio based in Austin, Texas, is launching their first title Resonant Blade on July 22nd. Battle a horde of AI-powered robots hellbent on destruction by wielding the ultimate sound-based weapon, solving resonance-based puzzles, and exploring shattered sci-fi world teetering on the edge of silence. The pixel-based hack-and-slash adventure game launches on Steam, with plans for eventual release on consoles. Players can pick up the game for $19.99 USD, with an additional 10% launch discount.

In Resonant Blade, you’ll step into the shoes of Atlas — a former scientist turned soldier, driven to fight after the Dark Synths decimated the world of Terra. Wielding the powerful Resonant Blade, Atlas manipulates sonic energy to overcome the Synths’ defenses. Tune your Resonant Tones to exploit enemy vulnerabilities, and sync attacks for maximum impact. Every encounter demands sharp reflexes, an even sharper ear, and careful adaptation. Dash, parry, and modulate your way through a battle for humanity, where every fight becomes a symphony of skill and strategy.

Key Features:

• Listen and Adapt: Match your Resonant Tones to defeat enemies and solve puzzles. A keen ear will benefit you in battle against the Dark Synths.
• Journey Through a Dissonant Landscape: Navigate through four dangerous dungeons and defeat six challenging bosses throughout your epic adventure on the planet Terra.
• Modulate Your Moves: Dash, parry, and modulate Resonant Tones to exploit enemy weaknesses. Harmonize three Resonant Tones to unleash devastating Triad abilities to deliver the finishing blow.
• Form New Frequencies: Unlock new Resonant Tones to power up the Resonant Blade and discover new ways to outperform your foes.
• Improvise Your Own Action-Packed Musical Style: Customize your gameplay with a variety of mods, creating a unique approach to combat that fits your personal style.
