New Indie Platformer Ayasa: Shadow of Silence Brings Little Nightmares-Style Mystery and Horror
Step into a world shattered by darkness and imbued with mystery in Ayasa: Shadow of Silence, a platformer that marries quest-driven exploration with mind-bending horror elements.
The official reveal trailer just dropped, offering players a glimpse into Ayasa’s powers - time manipulation, invisibility and energy control - abilities players have to master to save a world on the brink of destruction.
In Ayasa, players navigate the Inverted World-a realm once harmonious, where good and evil coexisted under the watchful presence of Tash, the Absolute. But that balance has shattered, and darkness now threatens to engulf the six lands of Faith, Hope, Love, Greed, Indifference, and Betrayal. Armed with remnants of Tash’s light, Ayasa must journey through these fractured lands, using her powers to restore balance and fend off the impending darkness.
"Ayasa is more than a game; it’s an adventure into the unknown, a test of courage, and a fight to bring light back into a world on the edge," says Edgar Janoyan. "We wanted to create an experience that feels both mysterious and deeply immersive, where every choice counts."
The game will be released on PC via Steam, PS4/5, Xbox, Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch in 2025.
