A downloadable game

A  retro-styled, fast paced roguelike featuring:

  • 18 Upgrades with interesting synergies
  • 17 Colors in a gameboy color inspired palette
  • Dozens of enemies and two deadly Bosses
  • Lots and lots of ways to die!

Control with WASD & mouse. Originally made in 3 days for the CTMC Strawberry Jam #36, then updated with additional features over the course of 2 weeks. The jam was Minecraft themed, so several sprites are recolored from there and several mechanics and enemies inspired from it. Game is 100% free; please message @kaladun on Discord if you have bug reports or questions.
