Solo developer Jo Drolet has announced the upcoming release of Lhea and the Word Spirit, an enthralling single-player roguelite where players guide lost souls through mysterious worlds. Your mission is to seal the ominous In-Between, navigating the delicate balance between life and death with the guidance of an ancient Word Spirit. The game features minimalist visuals and introduces a unique "timeline battle system".

In Lhea and the Word Spirit, you'll master the art of manipulating the timeline during battles to advance, equipped with a range of enchanted rings that you can customize and upgrade. These rings not only provide various spells but also unlock hidden secrets that deepen the mystery of the In-Between. Given its roguelite essence, each run through the procedurally generated realms will demand different strategies, ensuring a fresh and engaging experience every time.

Jo Drolet shares, *“I wanted to create this charming minimalistic world about life and death with the hope that players lose track of time and feel enspirited by this dance between unexpected discoveries, strategy flow, and heartwarming music.”*

Lhea and the Word Spirit is slated for release in August, but eager players can get a taste of the action earlier with a demo available during Steam Next Fest from June 9th to 16th.
