Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I want to be able to gather feedback and tweak the game based on user inputs. what works what is unbalanced, and further scale the unlockable in the future. I know there is only so much I can input in my game myself, and want an active community instead of a one-way street.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Maximum 1 year, if there is no feedback no nothing within time frame, I will just make it as full release as is. ”

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

“I want to be able to add more heroes possibly, more monsters, more skills, and possibly more permanent upgrades. The early access will have 100 skills with various evolutions but I feel like i can scale it to a lot more given the support of the community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Full game cycle, permanent upgrades, procedural generation of maps, unlockables, and multiple bosses.”

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

“Maybe, I honestly don't know where the evolution will take me, it might depend on how much time it will take me to build and how different it could be from the original game. but it won't be too far from the original price. ”

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

“I have been posting constantly in social media, release demos, and creating discord groups. I hope to have some sort of analytics within the game, so I understand certain pain points of players, where they get stuck, and insert an analytics form within the game to gather feedback.”

About This Game

Halloween never ends. Neither do the waves.

Build your own Halloween nightmare in Pumpkin Reaper, an action roguelike about surviving endless waves and discovering what your skills can do together. Wield sinister spells, fight alongside summons, and turn each level-up into another piece of your build.

Then open the Ritual Circle. Five slots. Two neighbors per skill. One rearrangement could change your entire strategy.

Five slots. 1,069 skill synergies. Nice.

Explore 1,069 skill synergies by arranging acquired spells, summons, weapons, and upgrades around a five-slot Ritual Circle. Compatible neighbors grant new effects and bonuses, from homing attacks and lifesteal to burning trails, piercing projectiles, and explosive hits.

Placement matters. A skill can strengthen its neighbor without receiving the same benefit in return. Even the last slot connects back to the first, giving every position a part to play.

Pause the action, swap skills, and reshape your combinations as your build develops. The choice is more than what to take next: it is where to put it.

Bring your theory to life.

Build around a pack of summons. Combine frost and flame. Experiment with bats, skulls, poison, and life-draining attacks. Pursue a favorite combination, or adapt when a level-up offers the missing piece for something stranger.

Find out how far your build can go.

Endless survival is the default. Keep your build alive through wave after wave, balancing damage, control, healing, and summons as you push for a longer run.

When you fall, inspect the damage and DPS breakdowns for your skills, rituals, and summons. Find what carried the run, spot what underperformed, and take a new theory into the next attempt.

Start fresh. Return with a better idea.

No metaprogression. No permanent power upgrades between runs. Build your strength during each attempt, then start again with what you have learned about the skills, the circle, and the combinations worth chasing.
