Repeated intro
Greetings from the Doinkhole. We are crawling out into the sun with a new game announcement.
What changed
- Gameplay
- Balance
Introducing: Dark Scrolls, a dungeon scroller!
Embark on a heroic quest to [can we please just fill this in later? We are so tired of writing, we wrote like a million words last game].
Choose between 9 unique heroes, including genre staples such as:
A barbarian (for all the bonk boys in the audience)
A mage "The High IQ choice"
Rat with saxophone 🎷
A thief, classic, obligatory
“Stop making up genre names?” “What is a dungeon scroller?”
Okay first of all, no, secondly:
It’s a platformer, but the screen keeps scrolling like a horizontal shmup, so you gotta keep moving.
…And it’s a fantasy randomly generated dungeon game that y’all are gonna call a "roguelike" and then argue about what that even means whether we like it or not.
Impressive sounding feature list:
🗡️Procedurally generated runs (aka: the level designer went on vacation)
🗡️Branching paths (choose your own adventure)
🗡️A weird perk system that you won't understand at first but then it'll click and your power will spiral out of control and it'll feel really good, promise!
🗡️A bigger, harder enemy that you face at the end of each level which we are calling a “boss”
🗡️Goose honks at you at the shop
🗡️Damage numbers appear over enemies when you hit them
🗡️ ONLINE MULTIPLAYER WHICH IS WHY THIS THING TOOK SO LONG 📢📢
Please please please wishlist, we are begging you, this is all we ask, we love you so much, we love you forever, beautiful gamers.
