Description

Elemental Shifter is a top-down co-op action roguelite where your enemies' spells are your best weapon. Absorb an incoming spell and you take on its element, then hit back with an empowered strike: a tidal wave of water, plasma that bounces through a whole group, a void that pulls the room in. Fight through the run alone or with up to three friends online, pick a path, find gear, and chase a build that breaks the game.

Features

Absorb enemy spells. Time it right and an incoming spell becomes your next attack.
Seven elements: Water, Plasma, Fire, Geo, Aero, Aether and Void, each with its own empowered strike.
Online co-op for up to 4 players over Steam.
Builds that spike: paths, items and gear that stack into game-breaking runs.
Hand-made pixel art with a bright, readable top-down style.

Roadmap

December 2026, free demo: play the first level and test the combat.
February 2027, Steam Next Fest: the first 2 levels and permanent character upgrades.
Spring 2027, full release: all 5 stages and every boss, every path and item, and 2 new weapon types.
