Nine Sols is an 2D action-platformer developed and published by Red Candle Games. The game is set in an Asian fantasy-inspired, futuristic taopunk world. In gameplay, combat emphasizes on the player deflecting attacks from enemies to build up energy to perform special attacks. It features a hand-drawn animation and a storyline for players to experience. The game was released on Windows and macOS on May 29, 2024.
Five hundred years ago, the Tianhuo virus infects the Solarians, an anthropomorphic cat race. With no cure in sight, the leaders -- the Ten Sols, develop the Eternal Cauldron Project, in where Solarians may rest in a virtual reality to delay the virus while searching for the cure. However the energy to power the project requires the brains of intelligent lifeforms, hence they set sail for a 500 year long journey on an island-ship named New Kunlun to the "pale-blue planet" (Earth) where "apemen" (humans) were discovered, leaving their home planet Penglai. Yi, the Tenth Sol, is betrayed and put in a temporary state of hibernating shortly before the ship's launch. He survives due to a special connection with the Primordial Roots, a plant that produces vast amount of energy which the Solarians harness for their technology.
Yi wakes up a few hundred years later in Peach-Blossom village, an area within New Kunlun where the Solarians had kidnapped humans to breed as livestock. He develops a friendship with a human named Shuanshuan and subsequently saves him during the brain-offering ceremony, waking up the Nine Sols in the process.
