About the Game

Welcome explorer. Once more into the long night?

A charming twin-stick action roguelike adventure with a heavy emphasis on chaotic combat, cute characters and mystery!

Explore The Dark Mountain - a subterranean world full of monsters, secrets and lovable characters. Puzzle, upgrade and battle your way through three randomly generated areas to outrun a deadly storm and escape to the Overworld beyond. Uncover a trail of mysteries in this ancient kingdom of demigods and explorers, captured within an endless time loop.

What treasures await in The Overworld? Is there a way to stop the storm from spreading? Can you escape the endless time loop? All may be revealed beyond the long night.


Features

  • A charming single player adventure set in a world caught in a time loop.
  • Shoot, dodge, throw items and use Superpowers to fight your way through The Dark Mountain.
  • All upgrades are infinitely stackable and combine with each other to create chaotic combinations.
  • The bunting has physics.
  • Outrun a deadly storm that spreads from chamber to chamber, chasing you up the mountain.
  • A colourful cast of charming characters who remember you between runs.
  • Motivational cows?
  • Discover puzzles and secrets scattered throughout the world.

What a satisfying experience. I must have sunk over 25 hours into this demo already, its bananas. Replay-ability value is off the charts. Looks like a cute casual game but don't be fooled; it can be challenging. One more amazing game that will sit high on the scale of what makes a great roguelike.

This game is a lot of fun. I like the concept of having to go from the start but improving each time and it works really well in the gameplay setting
