A playthrough of the demo for Chiaroscuro, where you play a Rose, a shadowy figure in a world of darkness seeking remnants of light for nebulous reasons. With some Metroidvania elements (and apparently a leveling system), you'll presumably get a variety of upgrades to come out on top.

We get one area and one boss before it ends (13:55 for the boss fight and 17:27 for a better version). Overall, I liked the demo. The art, music, and gameplay are all solid. Rose felt slightly sluggish initially but as time went on it wasn't an issue. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the auto-heal with full lumen as that seems to encourage hoarding it and makes it pretty easy to back off and heal to full.

I redid the boss fight to show more of what you can do, particularly upswing/downswing and using the bow/magic as I ignored a good chunk of that initially playing.

There also is a Kickstarter planned for Oct 1st if you want to support its development at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rustey/chiaroscuro
