Kernel Hearts - Locations
The world of Kernel Hearts: an ash-drowned realm ruled by the Angels, with the Tower of Babel rising at its heart as the vertical roguelike path the M.A.H.O.U. Unit climbs. Runs move through open, explorable levels on the way up, framed by the drowned world below and the god's seat at the summit.
