Evaluation

I Will Purify You launched on December 12, 2025. Following launch, Cheese Burger Studio was actively iterating on the game: a patch on December 19, 2025 added Spanish language support and balance fixes; a January 8, 2026 update added gameplay improvements and UI enhancements; and a January 26, 2026 update added a Hard Mode challenge difficulty and normal mode rebalancing. That January 26, 2026 post is the last developer communication on record. As of today, September 24, 2026, there have been no further posts, announcements, or updates from the studio — a silence of approximately eight months. The studio's post-launch update pattern ran roughly every two to three weeks from December 2025 through January 2026, meaning the silence since January 26, 2026 far exceeds any established cadence window. No future content was announced in any of the posts, no unreleased DLC is listed on the store, and the developer has not communicated any plans beyond the updates already delivered. The most recent post closes with a general "thank you" without teasing additional content. With no outstanding commitments and silence well beyond the historical update cadence, the game appears to have reached its completed state as of the final update on January 26, 2026.
Evidence
Most recent developer communication: a named content update adding Hard Mode and normal mode difficulty rebalancing, along with bug fixes. Closes with a general promise to keep working but no specific future content announced. This is the last post on record.

About this game

Purge the Beautiful Yet Deadly Anomalies!

Anomalies are spreading chaos across the world—each one mesmerizingly beautiful, yet undeniably lethal.
Your mission is simple: Purify them.
Become the exorcist James, and face the most enchanting but dangerous foes ever known.

2D Pixel Art Action Game

I Will Purify You is a fast-paced 2D pixel-art action game filled with stylish, adrenaline-pumping combat.
Each region features entirely different layouts, threats, and attack patterns.
The Anomalies you must purify are powerful… but the battles are all the more thrilling because of it.

Story

Creatures once believed to exist only in myth—Anomalies—have begun appearing across the real world.
These beings, awakened from legends and folklore, are the bosses you must confront.

To stop the spreading chaos, James—the exorcist of the Soul Demon Hunters (that’s you, sir!)—sets out on a global journey to purify them.

The only one who can stop this myth-bred disaster from consuming the world… is you.

Your Mission: Purification for the Sake of Humanity

As James, you’ll chase down hordes of Anomalies, test your strength in intense combat, and grow stronger with every encounter. The stronger you become, the longer you survive— and the longer you survive, the more you can purify.

Fight for humanity’s peace, James!

Adaptive Combat Through Weapon Combinations

Collect materials and currency during battle to unlock new weapons and Exorcism Powers.
Your arsenal includes:

  • A lightsaber straight out of a sci-fi film

  • Sacred relic weapons born from ancient legends

  • Even an adorable cat-themed weapon!?

Combine dozens of weapon types to craft your own build.
But nothing comes for free—every recipe must be earned through combat.

Encounter Mythical Female Anomalies

At the end of each region awaits a legendary female boss:

  • Each inspired by a different global myth

  • Each wielding unique supernatural abilities and patterns

  • Each provoked by your growing strength

To purify these beautiful but deadly beings, you’ll need focus, strategy, and relentless power.

Dangerous, Alluring Memories with Them

During purification, James encounters powerful female Anomalies— and IPU’s exclusive system lets you experience their subtle expressions, vivid body lines, animations, and voices up close.

But be careful— their charm is irresistible, and their danger is real. A moment of hesitation may turn you into prey.

Your encounters with them are not just battles… they’re unforgettable, seductive, and deadly memories.
