00:12Hi, I'm Avichal, Game Director at Nodding Heads Games. We're making an action-adventure title
00:19called Raji Kalyuga. The story picks up six years after the events of the first game,
00:26when Mahabal Asura prematurely unsealed the heavens, shattering the divine equilibrium
00:32and plunging all realms into endless war. Raji Kalyuga features dual protagonists,
00:40allying players to embody both Raji, the warrior of fate, and Darsh, the dreamwalker.
00:46Characters switch based on story events and act as companions to one another.
00:54Raji employs acrobatic martial arts and wields the divine Trishul, while Darsh awakens to immense
01:02powers, controlling Siddhis to manipulate gravity, time, and energy. Raji can utilize attacks of
01:09varying intensities using different combos. The Trishul can also push back enemies, resulting
01:16in a knockdown effect, which can be followed by quick executes. Whether it's jumping off enemies
01:23for powerful attacks or flinging them up, Raji's got quite the arsenal at her disposal.
01:30Darsh, on the other hand, likes to keep his distance since he primarily conjures and throws
01:36orbs. Enemies hit by his orbs are tagged with the current selected Siddhi. Upon fully tagging
01:42an enemy, heal the Siddhi and unleash a powerful attack that can affect all enemies nearby.
01:49Darsh can switch Siddhis at any time and through the different combination of Siddhi attacks,
01:55the player can utilize varied attacks. Some of the unique abilities summon high damage energy
02:01orbs, enemy disabling gravity tornadoes, and even reality-pending abilities like summoning
02:08a black hole. When it comes to evading enemies, most games just have a dodge roll. This is where
02:19Raji Kalyuga sets itself apart as we crafted the customized evasion system for Raji and Darsh.
02:27Raji can perform sidesteps, flips, and dodge rolls. Darsh performs twirls and rolls, and all of them have
02:35their own unique follow-up attacks, providing different utility. You'll find plenty to explore
02:44in the game, from fun platforming and puzzles to special abilities that really bring the two
02:50siblings together. We're excited to share more soon.
