What is Powerlust, you ask? An old school action RPG roguelike with manual combat. I hope to release it on 07.01.22. Powerlust is an old school action RPG roguelike with manual combat and a dark atmosphere. Made by one guy Hobby project made by one guy (me). I spent quite a few years on it already. No huge corporations involved No rigid classes You can create your own class, nothing is locked, feel free to play as a fire mage wielding a two handed sword or a necro archer. Tons of masteries and skills There is a vast number of options to choose from when it comes to spells, weapons, abilities and masteries. You can create a ton of builds and constantly find new ways of crushing your enemies! Really free to play! Micro transactions are just donations with some cool cosmetic rewards like different camera perspectives (top down, TPP, FPP), camera filters, character customization and the bloodbath mode. There are also some quality of life features like a faster character specialization unlock and an option to share items between your chars. Still in development This game is under ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT, I have many updates planned for it. I'd appreciate any feedback, it will be a really huge help in further development. I have an awesome community on discord and I hope to build one here too! Features: skill based gameplay no auto fight mechanics hardcore permadeath mode for roguelike fans procedurally generated dungeons gamepad support
This looks flippin' incredible! Please consider an all-inclusive one-time IAP for all present and future rewards.
Thank you! That's how it's going to work actually There are several tiers, higher ones include the lower stuff too.
Yeah, the game was available for free at first (on android). Then I added donations with no rewards. People started donating a bit, so I figured I'll come up with some non p2w rewards for them. I think they are pretty fun.
Love this game. Been playing it for quite some time. Especially the unique items and deep skill system. Creating your own class from many schools gives so many possibilities. Really recommend this!
The rewards you've listed above ARE fun! But yeah, major respect for the route you've chosen. I can imagine a dozen tactics you could've implemented instead to guarantee some money to line your pockets with, but you went with classy for-gamer-by-gamer-centric mentality. Scratch what I said above.... ALL of my monies are yours!
Thank you! ❤ Yeah, it's definitely not the greatest way to make money, I do have a full time job fortunately, so monetizing the game wasn't my main goal. The goal was to get a lot of player play (and hopefully enjoy) my game
Is it possible to have your character block with a shield in first person view? Later on a shield bash skill learned could have a chance to stun. Thanks.
First person mode is just a camera change, so all skills work the same way. There's a shield skill called block and there's also a skill called 'shield bash' that stuns the enemy ;d But to be honest shield skills could use a revamp, especially blocking seems to be pretty confusing to people (it's an instant block, not a continuous block).
Haha. Yeah, it does. Pretty random. I finished preparing the build, but wanted a little bit of time to make sure everything is fine with it. I have a fulltime job, so weekend is safer, in case I need to fix any after release issues.
Might just be me but not a fan of the title. The game itself looks amazing from the video but Powerlust ? Sounds like an 80's porno title !
Sure, some additional testing is always great. Send me your info via pm. Btw, I found a bug that might be a bit too annoying to be sent to public, so I'm not entirely sure if the 7.01 date is still happening. I'm sick right now, so not sure how fast I'll be able to make it happen.
