In my country, most of developers can't get the respect and enough salary they deserve. I think it's the time, just try to fight for myself once... I spend about 5 months to create this game. I design rules, monsters and items, and programming, learn game engine, and learn English during this time. I like the arcade games of the 90s,that is my precious memories. I like roguelike games, random is really fascinating. I am used to the feeling of hard-core: upgrading myself is more fun than upgrading a game character. I rarely have time to play pc or playstation, so I need a hard-core mobile game. I need to control the development and keep it simple, because it's my first project. So, it's a herd-core mobile arcarde game with roguelike elements. No movement, just like midlife crisis No extra life, just like the real life No HP bar, just be familiar with them No AD No IAP I think everything in the game should be unique. So every monster, boss, weapon, skill and ability in the game has clear characteristics. The real beginning is the Dark Stage !!!! Until the release, there are still some things that have not been completed, and there are even some flaws. Under the enormous pressure from household spending, I have to release this game first. The game is not so perfect, but it's really a cool and awesome game!

Quoad Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 1,108 217 63 #4 Quoad, Feb 21, 2019 Just downloaded, as it’s the only one of today’s offerings that appealed. Have a dog to walk and 4yo to breakfast / get to school, and some heavy work today. But, yeah, in principle I’m on it! Quoad Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 1,108 217 63 #5 Quoad, Feb 21, 2019 Tutorial impression: entertaining, with decent potential and surprisingly creative use of monsters / one basic dynamic (torch, you’re static and rotating and armed). Linjiang Cao and Lull4by like this. Grimmsworth Active Member May 29, 2016 40 2 8 #6 Grimmsworth, Feb 21, 2019 Impressions: Played the game once and I liked the concept of it. Suprise attacks from different areas, monster that need to be timed properly and the feel of enemies creeping in every corner. Really fun game. Hope this gets more updates as time goes by. solarnya Well-Known Member Jul 22, 2015 907 287 63 Male Close to Tokyo, Japan #7 solarnya, Feb 21, 2019 I bought it and took some runs. Player can't move, just looking around, fight is in the dark, sight is very narrow so gameplay is intense and exciting. After each levels, you can get upgrade from one of Guns, Skills, Abilities or regenerate HP, those are roguelike elements. Personally I like this game so much! I still haven't reached boss... I need to keep up! psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #8 psj3809, Feb 21, 2019 I would amend your app description as it'll put some people off due to bad english. rougelike - should be 'rogue like' (rouge is a colour) yorrick Well-Known Member Oct 29, 2009 271 0 16 Sydney, Australia #9 yorrick, Feb 21, 2019 That is why I keep on reading incorrectly "Rogue One" for "Rouge One"! Talking about going dyslexic ... or demented! Quoad Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 1,108 217 63 #10 Quoad, Feb 21, 2019 Though I'm not sure the comparison is 100% obvious, this reminds me of nothing more than Let Them Come. I don't really do 'suspense' in games, but yeah. As someone has mentioned, it actually works quite well here. The feeling / knowledge that something is lurking up behind you. And the constant need to switch, rotate, upgrade. Linjiang Cao likes this. Linjiang Cao Member Feb 20, 2019 12 2 3 Male China #11 Linjiang Cao, Feb 22, 2019 Oh my god! What a stupid mistake I made...
