About This Game

The Path of Ren is a challenging precision platformer with tight, expressive controls. Run, jump, climb, swing, and master orb abilities to conquer 300+ unique challenges!

Master Orb Abilities

Orb abilities are easy to learn, but difficult to master! Use them to dash, crystalize, ghostify, warp, and slow time.

Collecting an orb lets you use that ability a single time with the press or hold of a button.

Collect Journal Entries

Collect thought-provoking journal entries scattered throughout the world. While entirely optional, they may give you a different perspective about the world of Mythoria.

Conquer Timed Trials

Test your skills by replaying the levels from story mode with time and point targets. Achieve bronze, silver, and gold medals and rank on Steam Leaderboards!

Unlock Outfits and Customize Ren

Unlock outfits and customize Ren to your own preferred style!

Thank you so much!

Precision platformer games have always held a special place in my heart, so it’s an incredible honor to contribute to a genre I love through this project.

As a solo-developer, all of the support I've received throughout the journey of creating this has meant a lot. Whether you’ve followed the game’s development, helped shape it through testing, or are just now diving in, I’m deeply grateful. Thank you so much! 💙
