KAZ is OUT NOW!

KAZ is OUT NOW!

KAZ is finally here! After months of updates, playtests, feedback, events, trailers, bug reports, balance changes (and a lot of keyboard abuse) the full version of KAZ is now available on Steam.

To celebrate the launch, KAZ is also 15% off for a limited time!

If you’re new around here: welcome! KAZ is a minimalist roguelike about moving fast, making quick decisions, chasing higher scores, (and trying not to destroy your keyboard in the process). Runs are short, the music and visuals react to what you do, and every item choice can change the run completely.

What’s in the full release?

The full version of KAZ includes:

• More than 110 items (and weapons) to discover and combine

• Over 20 unique, hand-drawn themes each with their own power-ups (Including contributions from the community!)

• Over 145 quests to complete

• More than 35 maluses that can completely change your run

• Multiple game modes, including Survival, No Stress, and Dance-pad Mode

• Daily, weekly, monthly, and all-time leaderboard challenges

• Twitch integration, letting viewers vote on your run

• A reactive soundtrack and visual system that changes with the gameplay

• AdjustedGame localisations added inEnglish, French, German, Brazilian, Portuguese, Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Japanse, Korean

Special themes and collaborations

The full release also includes a few special collaborations!

There are also custom in-game themes made in collaboration with MisterMV and Olexa! These creators were kind enough to feature KAZ on their channels, so we wanted to celebrate that by creating their very own KAZ themes inside the game.

We’re also very happy to have crossover themes based on Sol Cesto, Rhythm Doctor and Linkito!

We’re also excited to announce our collaboration with Keychron! The collaboration includes a custom Keychron theme in KAZ, as well as a tournament where you’ll have the chance to win a custom KAZ Keychron keyboard. Check out the official tournament announcement for more details!

Sol Cesto, Save me Mr. Tako, Rhythm Doctor, Linkito, and Keychron themes are available in game, and can be unlocked with KAZ coins as you progress. To redeem the Mistermv and Olexa themes, use the codes “ mistermv ” and “ Olexa ”.

Go to Options > General > Redeem and enter the code to try it out!

Thank you

KAZ has changed a lot since the first public versions. The game has been rebalanced, expanded, polished, redesigned, and pushed much further than I originally imagined.

A huge thank you to everyone who played the demo, joined the playtests, reported bugs, gave feedback, competed on the leaderboards, shared clips, or simply wishlisted the game. Your support helped shape the final release in a very real way.

This is a very simple game, but it has also been very complex to design. The goal was always to strip the roguelike formula down to something immediate, sharp, and replayable while still keeping enough depth to make each run feel different.

Now it is finally out.

Thank you for being here. Go break your keyboard. ;)

Play KAZ now on Steam and get 15% off during the launch discount.
