The wait for Aeternum on PC is over! Our own little quirky bullet hell has finally made the leap, but we thought while we were at it why not fix a whole bunch of stuff, and add a bunch of other stuff!

Or buy on IndieGameStand or Desura!

(Buying on IGS gets you a Desura key too.)

Features

• Includes all 4 stages of the original game AND the Extra stage featuring the true final boss, Winter.
• Play fullscreen, or windowed with appropriate size/stretch options.
• Playable with an Xbox (or compatible) gamepad, or keyboard with configurable bindings.
• Additional Easy Difficulty.
  • You’ll find the exact same bullet patterns as on Normal, only taking a hit loses less Power.
• All new Arrange Mode!
  • Play as either Ellica or Aubrey.
  • An entirely new rank-based alternate scoring system for seasoned shmup players who demand a more complex experience.
• Unlock Aubrey as a playable character in Arcade Mode too!
• Toggle bloom filter on/off, for less powerful computers, or if you just plain hate bloom.
• New “Retry” option in the pause menu for practicing perfectionists.
• Fancy appearing text in Story Mode dialogue scenes.

Balance Changes/Bug Fixes

• Player movement adjusted. Ellica’s slow move speed is slightly faster.
• Bombing no longer fails a boss spell bonus.
• New “game over” animation. Sorry if dying felt cheap before.
• Arcade mode now starts with 6 lives in all difficulties.
• Powerups should no longer buggily appear above bullets.

As always, I’m totally open to questions/comments/suggestions/criticism, or just plain old talking!
