ERSATZ

About the game

A closer look.

WHAT IS ERSATZ? ERSATZ is a speed focused, hardcore Action Platformer with Rhythm elements. Featuring a multiple genre Original Electronic Soundtrack which dynamically builds and changes based on your progression! In ERSATZ, your dash is also your attack, and hitting enemies recharges a dash block instantly. So use it effectively in combination with your slam to chain actions together and speed through 8 challenging and increasingly intense levels as fast as you can. Can you get an S Rank on every level and playstyle? _____________________________________________________________________ WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT ERSATZ "It’s the immaculate sound design and tremendous freedom of movement that makes Ersatz so satisfying to play." - Rock Paper Shotgun "If you're a fan of seriously good music and challenging platformers, stop right now and go get it.
