This was really consistently dark and menacing with glimmers of light in appropriate intervals. Great feel for the kind of game you describe. Loki's theme is really quirky in a way, I love it. That piano part in Odin's theme was also really epic. Nice job!

Description
Set in a dark cyberpunk world controlled by a neon infused pantheon of norse gods, you play as a half light and half dark elf who since birth has been imprisoned in a corrupted forest connected to Yggdrasil(the world tree). You have to escape to find out why the gods have imprisoned you, and why your mixed magical heritage is such a danger to the world.
Gameplay is a measured, strategic and intense souls-like with an emphasis on evading the attacks of the insanely powerful gods you face until they get bored and leave you alone.
Soundtrack is an intense combination of classical instruments and synths, with a distinctly different feel for each boss encounter and area. Most tracks are loopable or run once for the length of the boss battle till they leave
