Unto the End is a brutal 2D platformer. The game was produced by 2 Ton Studios studio and released by Digital Uppercut.
Unto the End is set in a gloomy fantasy land inspired by Nordic mythology. The game tells the story of a warrior whose whole family was murdered by an intelligent beast. The hero miraculously survived its attack and when he regained his strength, he decided to set off on an expedition for revenge.
Unto the End offers only a single-player mode. Most of the game elements are characteristic for 2D platformers. We keep moving to the right side of the screen, avoid traps and solve occasional puzzles. What distinguishes this game from most titles of this genre is the combat system.
The authors have prepared an extensive sword fighting mechanic. Swinging the weapon blindly will quickly end with our death. You need to select the right moments to attack, dodge, parry the attacks and make full use of the various fencing techniques that are in the hero's repertoire. Each enemy type uses a different tactic. The game also has fights with powerful bosses.
Unto the End offers an attractive graphics design, which is made in a very aesthetic 2D. The authors have opted for an eye-catching style full of dimmed colors, while the monumental shots of the landscape harmonize with the harsh climate of this fictional world.

Game Ratings for Unto the End Video Game.
Nindie Spotlight: 6.8 / 10 by Justin Nation
Mixing together the general feel of grand retro action adventures along the lines of Prince of Persia or Out of This World with some more modern touches, Unto the End has the bones of a solid, if aggravating experience...
The Digital Fix: 4 / 10 by Mike Merson
Even with clear intentions and a striking presentation, Unto the End's borderline broken combat mechanics drag the experience down into a spiral of misery.
GameGrin: 8 / 10 by Richard Shivdarsan
Unto the End is a scenic, lonely 2D side-scroller that sets its primary focus on a fixed number of intense battles with its unique combat system that is difficult to learn, but satisfying is master. There is no hand-holding here, though sometimes you might wish there was.
