Pistil
A downloadable game for Windows
From within, Life persevered.

BEFORE YOU PLAY:
Pistil is Sagehart Studio's first game! We are a team of 4 first-year students based out of Melbourne, Australia; dumping a majority of our time and passion into this project since mid-2025. You may have caught our game at GP25, PAX Melbourne and/or SXSW Sydney!
PLAY WITH A CONTROLLER AND HEADPHONES!
NOT YET OPTIMISED FOR LAPTOPS!
THE GAME:
A 2D platformer/search-action with an emphasis on movement, destruction and exploration! This demo build will draw you into Pistil's dash-based mechanics as you progress through what remains.
Fun fact: pistil is sometimes confused with pistol.
FEATURES:
