Ochre Heart
Find the source of the infection to free the caverns from its grasp. But beware -- you may need its power to defeat the corrupted creatures that stand in your way.

Save the caverns
Ever since the Ochre Sap appeared, things have been falling apart. The Custodians no longer keep their domains, corrupted into inaction or violence.
Only one Custodian remains unmarred. You. Make your way to the source of the infection and destroy it.
Explore the domains
Travel through the domains crumbling under the Ochre Sap, and discover ways to get stronger, whatever the cost.

Notes:
- Gamepad and keyboard supported; controls shown in-game
- The game saves your progress when you rest at statues; so if you softlock yourself somewhere we forgot to block off, you can quit and load in again (from the pause menu [Esc]) and it should respawn you at the last statue you rested at.
- There are 7 hearts to find, some more hidden than others. But you don't need all of them to beat the game; collect a handful for progressing, and the rest if you'd like to explore and discover.
Known issues:
- For some people, releasing the analog stick on the gamepad while moving will flip the platypus in the other direction. If that's happening to you and it bothers you too much, there's a Windows build (named "(Deadzone)") that has a much larger deadzone, which seems to solve the problem.
