A tactical roguelike where you throw flares to briefly pierce the darkness, draw a path in pitch black, and race dripping lava following you through the volcanic tunnels. Plan fast, dig deep, and descend to the safe place before the lava swallows everything.

即將推出搶先體驗

此遊戲的開發者打算以開發中的狀態推出遊戲,以將玩家意見回饋納入開發過程。

備註:處於搶先體驗狀態的遊戲尚未開發完成,且內容可能會有所變動。如果目前的開發進度未使您產生興趣, 建議您等待本遊戲開發至下一階段時再決定是否購買。了解更多

開發者的話:

為何採用搶先體驗模式?

「Flarebound is a handcrafted passion project being developed by a solo dad during nights and weekends. Early Access gives me a chance to involve players directly as I shape the game’s world, mechanics, and balance. Your feedback will help refine the core loop, uncover fun strategies, and shape how deep into the darkness the game should go. This is also a way for early supporters to get in at a lower price and influence development from the start.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久?

「Flarebound will remain in Early Access as long as it needs to reach its full potential — though I’m aiming to keep development focused and scope-controlled. I want to grow the game responsibly without getting stuck in a cycle of never-ending updates. Somewhere between 3-6 months is my plan.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同?

「The core gameplay — exploring in darkness, throwing flares, and drawing your path while time is stopped — is already in place. The full version is planned to include more of everything that makes Flarebound shine: additional enemy types, more environmental variety, expanded upgrades, new trap mechanics, and possibly some light story or progression structure. Nothing is promised, but the goal is to expand the challenge and discovery without losing the tight, focused feel.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何?

「The Early Access version includes a fully playable core experience with:
  • The complete time-stop and path-drawing mechanic
  • Procedurally generated levels in the dark
  • Several enemy types, including spiders and snakes
  • A light upgrade and progression system (flares, helmet light, etc.)
  • A minimal but atmospheric art style and audio direction
  • The game is stable and fun — but still evolving in terms of content depth, polish, and balance.

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎?

「Yes. Early Access is available at a lower price to reward early supporters. Once the game leaves Early Access, the price will increase. The Early Access discount will not return after full release, though occasional event-based sales may apply to the full price in the future.」

在開發過程中,您打算如何與社群互動?

「I’ll be listening closely to player feedback on Steam forums, social media, and through direct messages. I will send out surveys from time to time to make data-driven decisions about game features, what is fun gets improved and what isn't gets cut. 」

關於此遊戲

Flarebound is a tense roguelite digging adventure where players descend into dangerous volcanic caverns to recover ancient treasures. Armed only with flares, time slows down when you stop moving — letting you plan your next risky step.

Every run is unique, every artifact brings the museum closer to survival, and the lava never stops chasing you down the caverns.

Volcano

The volcano is about to erupt, threatening to bury a lifetime of treasures. You play as a daring explorer who partners with Elena, a museum curator desperate to preserve history before it’s lost forever.

Once you start digging, the volcano erupts and from here on there is only one way - down.

Runs

In each run, you:

  • Throw flares to light your path through pitch darkness.

  • Draw routes through collapsing tunnels and monster-infested chambers.

  • Collect artifacts, fossils, coins, and rare items.

  • Reach the escape pod to take your loot back to the museum

  • Complete collections and unlock upgrades

  • Balance risk and reward — deeper treasures are more valuable, but one mistake loses everything.

Monsters

Drawing a path into the darkness is dangerous - you never know what might lurk in the shadows...

...better throw flares to light up the dark before planning your path.

Upgrades

Every section ends with a gate that provides random temporary upgrades.

Museum

The home base, the Museum, serves as a display of your collections. Once you unlock the Upgrade Cellar you can also purchase permanent upgrades down there!

Helm-lamp upgrades, brighter bouncing flares, and path-length boosts become vital as you dig toward harsher biomes filled with snakes, skittering spiders, and stranger predators the deeper you go.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am making Flarebound in my spare time after kids’ bedtime, so every update is a labour of late-night love of game development.

Wishlist if you’d like to follow the journey down into the dark.

Roadmap to Release

Demo & Next Fest
I will participate in the upcoming "Steam Next Fest" if I manage to get a stable and fun demo together until then.

Early Access
Flarebound will be released at the end of 2025 in Early Access for community-driven balancing and to start the development of new biomes/volcanoes.

1.0 Launch
Date unclear, depends how early access goes and how much time I have, but some time in 2026. When launching the full version you will be able to complete the descent in many volcanoes and have proper Steam integration for achievements and trading cards etc.
