Ava Hunt and Thieves of the Lost
The ruins don’t open. They push back.— A grounded, cinematic survival experience where every move matters — and hesitation is punished.
The world feels older than you — and it’s not happy you’re there.
Ava Hunt and Thieves of the Lost is a grounded, cinematic, story-driven survival experience where mystery unfolds through atmosphere and consequence.
You’re chasing something powerful — and the deeper you go, the harder the ruins push back.
Key features
Physical, momentum-driven movement: Move with intent — read the space, commit to every step.
Atmosphere-led discovery: The mystery unfolds through space, silence, and cinematic detail.
Measured stealth and positioning: Timing matters. So does restraint.
Tension over noise: Combat is a choice — not the only way forward.
Explore hostile ruins, survive escalating enemy pressure, solve traversal and environmental mysteries, and uncover fragments of a forgotten civilization — while rival factions and something far darker close in.
Every relic you uncover strengthens Ava — and pushes the world to respond.
Among ancient jungles and forgotten ruins
Forgotten sanctuaries, collapsed chambers, hidden passages, and environments shaped by an unknown Ethernal civilization buried beneath the modern world.
Resonant Relics System
Relics are more than collectibles. They awaken memories, grant abilities, and expose fragments of lost history — but every use leaves an echo that doesn’t fade.
Tactical Enemy Encounters
Enemies react to movement, sound, and proximity. Positioning matters, stealth is rewarded, and exposure is punished.
Not all hunters work alone. Enigma operates with purpose and resources — backed by the Thieves of the Lost, and sent to reclaim what should never surface.
The world dictates your movement
Unstable ruins, ancient mechanisms, and vertical spaces that demand instinct over precision.
The world shifts as you move.
The ruins don’t open — they test you.
Push through collapsing passages as ancient stones fight to stay sealed. Beyond the danger lie forgotten treasures — and truths meant to remain buried.
Progress demands motion.
Hesitation is punished, and instinct keeps you alive.
Move forward as the world collapses behind you.

Nothing is told — everything is felt
A distant voice follows Ava as the Signal grows stronger — and the ruins begin to answer.
The Forces Closing In
For millennia, the Thieves of the Lost have watched from the shadows.
As Ava draws closer to forbidden truths, their reach tightens — and Enigma is sent to claim what should never surface.
But Enigma isn’t the only threat.
As relic resonance intensifies, the Gloom awakens — twisted remnants of something that should never have existed.
They are not mindless. They sense energy, movement, presence — reacting to Ava’s actions… and to Enigma’s.
Every faction is drawn to the same truth: the Relics. The Ethernal Flame.
Resonance Mastery & Abilities
Ava’s bond with the relics deepens through Resonance Mastery — an evolving ability system shaped by the forces she awakens. New powers, passive traits, and subtle upgrades emerge as Ava resonates more deeply with the ruins — and as the world begins to respond in kind.
In Early Access, this system lays its foundation: relic awakenings, growing resonance, and escalating consequences as Ava ventures further into forbidden depths.
The Codex of Constellations — Relics System
Relics in Ava Hunt form a living constellation web inside the Codex of Constellations.
Each Relic unlocks lore fragments, Resonance effects, and new progression routes — revealing a larger pattern tied to the Ethernal Flame.
Relics follow distinct paths, allowing non-linear progression and meaningful choice as Ava evolves.
The deeper you resonate, the more secrets emerge — and the more dangerous the hunt becomes.
Factions & Threats
Relics form a living constellation within the Codex of Constellations — a web of symbols, memories, and latent power.
Each discovery reveals fragments of lost history, deepens Resonance, and opens new paths forward — hinting at a larger pattern tied to the Ethernal Flame.
Progress is never linear. The deeper Ava resonates, the more secrets surface — and the more dangerous the hunt becomes.
The scene above is from a chapter in development, "Aethyr: The Eternal Realm".
