What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to tune the game tension, room pacing, and enemy mix with real players. Early Access lets us iterate on combat readability, balance, and progression while we expand biomes, bosses, and quality-of-life features.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“About 9–12 months. That window gives us time to incorporate feedback and build out additional content without rushing.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Our goal is more content and more polish:

Additional biomes/layers, bosses, enemy variants, and room templates

New weapons and more upgrade variety

Expanded meta progression and accessibility/options

Performance improvements, achievements, and localization
(Exact features and timing may evolve based on player feedback.)”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Playable core loop with strong replayability:

Sunstone — Buried Temple biome with Main/Bronze/Silver/Gold layers
Aquarion Chalice - Flooded Catacombs biome with Main/Bronze/Silver/Gold layers

Procedural rooms with traps/hazards

15 kinds of enemies and different bosses per layer

Keyboard/mouse and controller support

Meta Progression”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. we plan to launch Early Access at a lower introductory price and slightly increase the price at 1.0 to reflect added content and polish.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Posting a public roadmap and detailed patch notes.

Run balance polls and gather feedback via Steam forums (and Discord, the link will follow).

Aim for regular updates (content drops or QoL/balance).

Share build notes and design intentions so you can see how feedback shapes changes.”

About This Game

In this pulp-adventure roguelite, light is life. Your torch steadily burns down as you sprint through procedural, trap-laced temples in search of ancient artifacts. Doors seal behind you; survive each encounter, loot fast, and move before the darkness swallows you. Tight, readable combat works with keyboard/mouse or controller.

From a cozy hub study, chart expeditions across biomes like the Buried Temple and Flooded Catacombs. A ruthless rival force—black-ops commandos (soldiers, snipers, ninjas)—races you to the prizes, while artifact-warped creatures (twisted golems and worse) prowl the ruins. Meanwhile, a fanatical cult known as the Order of the Eclipse seeks the relics for an apocalyptic ritual.
Core Features

  • Torch = Health. Your torch drains over time; refuel or die. Managing radius, pathing, and timing is the heart of every run.

  • Room-by-room combat. Enter a chamber, doors lock, defeat enemies, grab loot, move on—focused, readable encounters.

  • Procedural temples. Each temple layouts, hazards, and enemy compositions changes for fresh routing and tension.

  • Meaningful upgrades. Between rooms/bosses, pick build-defining cards (gun mods, torch perks, mobility, defense, elements) with smart tagging so choices fit your current weapon.

  • Boss arenas with clear reads. Set-piece fights emphasize positioning, line-of-sight, and pattern mastery.
