EthyPale is a calm yet thrilling survival ritual set in a soft, glowing void. You play as a pale wisp, an ethereal spark of light adrift between worlds. Dark phantoms rise from every edge of the realm, drawn to your gentle radiance. Touch and drag anywhere on the screen to glide; your spectral bolts seek the nearest shadow on their own, leaving a trail of luminous mist behind every kill.
Every fallen phantom releases a soul orb. Drift over orbs to harvest them and grow your essence, a permanent currency that lingers between runs. Once in a while, a slain shadow leaves behind an ancient relic. Sweep into a relic to unlock a fleeting power that bends the rules of the void.
Eight relics shape every run.
- Aegis Veil wraps you in a shimmering shield that absorbs the next strike.
- Stilltime warps the void and drags every phantom into a slow waltz.
- Nova Pulse explodes outward in a radiant burst, vaporising nearby threats.
- Splinterbolt forks each shot into a triple spectral spread.
- Hearthlight mends a sliver of your essence and steadies your light.
- Soulpull magnetises distant orbs, drawing them gently into your halo.
- Frostmote chills phantoms until they crawl through frozen mist.
- Pale Fury doubles the cadence of your bolts in a moment of fierce light.
