About this game
Gilgamesh Drift is a psychedelic rhythm-parkour game set onboard a colossal space station, anchored in the orbit of a supermassive black hole.
Parkour your way through the ruins of Brinkharbor, a once utopian society where death itself held no sway, now fallen into desolation; slowly crumbling to a mysterious force of fractal corruption.
Follow the Wanderer and their faithful companion Birdy through the 5 districts of this city-station, each with their own unique visual identity and gameplay challenges. Ascend the megastructure and aid the mechanical caretakers that are its only remaining (friendly) inhabitants. Piece together the mystery and uncover the story of Brinkharbor in this modern sci-fi take on the Epic of Gilgamesh.
Features:
A Prince of Persia inspired parkour system where you leap, slide, mantle, dash and wallrun through the crumbling ruins of a megastructure.
Rhythm-based gameplay where every parkour move is synced to the beat.
A high-octane Mystical Phonk soundtrack by the composer of Gloomwood, Taylor Shechet.
6 different areas that each have 3 levels, for a total of 18 levels.
Unique music tailored to the vibes of each level.
A cast of fun and melancholic characters that you can't help but relate to, as they try their best to eke out a life in the ruins of this once mighty civilization.
An enigmatic world where EVERYTHING pulses to the beat.
A synesthetic art style incorporating fractal art from the depths of the demoscene, merging with the music into a trip you'll never forget.

Devlog 0: How To Never Ship A Game
Happy Holidays folks! The Steam Page Launch has gone pretty well and we're starting to rack up wishlists. Very thankful for all those who supported us with their kind words as the page came out. Was definitely a nerve-wracking time and so any and all support means the world to us as a tiny indie team. We are plugging away at the game + the demo we're aiming for release by the Next Fest in October 2026. And as the new year comes rolling around, wanted to share a devlog we made a while back: It covers the entire period in which I worked as a solo-dev on Gilgamesh, before hiring a team towards the end of 2024. It did pretty well on Youtube and the response was very encouraging, so I will continue to make more! Released another devlog following up from this that I will share down the road. Hope the holidays and the new year find you safe, warm and happy! Wishlist Gilgamesh Drift if you haven't done so yet!Read full article on Community Announcements (Sai)AnnouncementsOfficial
