About Fractured Soul

You are the Entity, one who is able to shift between realities at will. Your mission is to defend the Typhon Cluster, lifeblood of all existence, from a swarm of invading hostiles. With danger on all sides, it is only your unique power that can give you a fighting chance.

Fractured Soul takes the classic platformers of the 80s and doubles the action! Your unique ability to shift between two parallel dimensions allows you to weave through enemy fire, catch opponents by surprise, and leap over impossibly wide gaps by using platforms in both realities.

A winner of the PAX Indie Showcase in 2013, an Honorable Mention in GDC Play’s Best In Show in 2013, and a two time finalist in Game Connection’s Selected Projects, Fractured Soul has won the hearts of critics the world over with no less than 50 reviews scoring the game 80% or better.
  • Pulse-pounding gameplay inspired by classic platformers of the 80s.
  • Playing in two realities at once literally adds a new dimension to the platforming genre.
  • Fire, water, wind, and anti-gravity each bring their own twist to one of the two dimensions.
  • Hardcore bonus challenge levels are unlocked through 5 star performances in the main game.
  • Two can play this game on the same PC - you and your friend can control the character in one dimension each!
  • Over 100 achievements to put your platforming skills to the test.
  • Online leaderboards to see how you stack up against your friends and the world.

I give this game a 10/10 I definitely recommend this game! It has been one of my favorite games and platformers of all time. The speedrunning aspect is amazing and gives you a reason to truly master the game. Anyone who is a fan of platformers and challenges will love it. It does a good job with the learning curve on introducing you to the switching mechanic, but it can be difficult to master. At its heart it is a skilled puzzle game through learning the best paths and strategies to speedrun a level--and has a suprising level of depth. Between the steam version and the 3ds version I've put over 100 hours into the game and only stopped because I was at the top of the leaderboards for most levels (on steam). I've gotten to talk to the devs some and they are really cool people who put a lot of passion into their game and it shows. They respond to their customers needs and feedback which goes a long way in my book. Also, I will give a cookie to anyone who can beat all my times. Feel free ask me for help or strategies to get past a level if you need it. I want really want someone to beat my times to give me an excuse to play again :D One last thing, do yourself a favor and play o…

Though it is a relatively short game, it is very memorable. I don't play it often, but when I do, it is always a great experience. The combination of the music, sound effects, and unique gameplay all make for a very nostalgic experience. I just wish it would work properly with controller bindings, and that there was an easy way to find the music online.

Fractured Soul is a pretty great Mega Man like shooter with the interesting concept of transferring through dimensions on the fly to get past the stages. I used to play this all the time on the 3DS. But after playing both versions, I gotta say that the hardcore mode on the PC version changed quite a bit of the content the original 3DS game had to make it easier like enemy placements, quantity of lasers, and the recovery time of the disappearing platforms being shorter. But at the same time, you get to see farther on the PC and the game runs at 60fps compared to the 3DS's 30fps cap. But this game is still good and I recommend playing it

A terrible port which has simply not been optimized properly to work with the XBox 360 controller. Rebinding keys does not work; navigating menus is a nightmare; working out what button does what is an exercise in pure frustration. This game will waste your time and money.

Very fun action platformer that unfortunately goes under the radar nowadays given its small status and port from its original handheld. I'm terrible at this game and have very little interest in speed-running at all, but it's a lot of fun and has plenty of replay value. Definitely a game worth giving a go, and certainly one that I'll be making returns to every now and then.
