Some people have a soft spot for beautiful visuals when it comes to games, and that doesn't necessarily mean having realistic 3D renderings that you''d swear look the same as real life. Sometimes even plain pixel-art or 2D games can be designed well enough to be warranted the label of "beautiful", and that's precisely the how Khaldun should be called.

Within Khaldun, you take on the mantle of a lone traveler seeking the Fountain of Eternity to cure his illness, but you'll have to fight through hordes of monsters to get to your destination. As you explore these temples, you will find skills, weapons and mysterious potions, but you will also be able to purchase them from wandering merchants you will find along your journey. Your journey will take you through what looks like ancient Egypt, and you'll enjoy gazing at the visuals enchanted by the magic of night's darkness.

A central part of the game is the combat system, which is pretty much the one thing you must master in order to progress. You have your basic attack, a ranged attack that deals less damage and a handful of skill which you must make use of, such as dashes and teleports. Monsters aren't merciful at all and the good old "get in their face and attack" strategy will only earn you a one-way ticket to the "Game-Over" screen, so learning how to use your skills for strategic positioning is crucial. One of the most interesting features of the game is that the levels are procedurally generated so the replay value of Khaldun is extremely high.

While still in early development, Khaldun has all the ingredients that would make a platformer desirable, from the combat mechanics to the beautiful visuals that look as if they were taken from DeviantArt. This makes it a great game to try and have in any fan of the platformer genre.
