About FoE Remains
Remains is a side‑view platformer that mixes familiar actions like jumping and climbing stairs with a large arsenal of weapons and explosives. The combat feels like a 2D shooter, while the game also embraces roguelike traits such as procedurally generated locations, lock‑picking, loot gathering, leveling, and skill perks.
The released content is extensive, featuring several large locations, almost a hundred enemy types, roughly two hundred weapons and explosives, dozens of spells, and over sixty perks. Development is complete, though future versions may still appear.
01 / THE GUIDE
Core Platformer Mechanics
Remains builds its foundation on side‑view platforming, using basic actions such as jumping and climbing stairs to move through rooms. These movements are required to reach new areas and avoid environmental hazards.
The platforming focus integrates with other systems, allowing players to explore varied rooms while maintaining a clear sense of spatial progression throughout each run.
- Notice how stair placement can change enemy encounter timing.
- Practice jump timing in early rooms to reduce accidental damage.
02 / THE GUIDE
Weapon Arsenal
Combat relies on a rich arsenal that includes about two hundred weapon and explosive types. This variety gives the game a strong 2D‑shooter feel within the platforming framework.
Players can switch between weapons to address different enemy types, making weapon choice a central consideration for each encounter.
- Try several weapon categories to see which match your play style.
- Balance explosive use with the amount of ammunition you carry.

Roguelike Exploration
Remains incorporates roguelike elements such as procedurally generated locations, lock‑picking, loot gathering, leveling, and skill/perk acquisition. Each run presents new room layouts and challenges.
Progression is tied to learning new skills and perks, encouraging adaptation as players explore deeper into the generated environments.
- Mark lock‑picking opportunities for future runs.
- Prioritize perks that complement the weapons you favor.
