About This Demo

What's in the demo

All of World 1: twenty floors, three mini-bosses, the Treewarden finale, and an endless mode that opens after you win. Records, a death recap and 15 languages. World 2, "The Frost", is in the full version.

About the game

Build something broken enough to break every enemy - and the game itself.

You don't control the hero. Your hero runs the dungeon in a small window on the right, picks targets, and dies if you got it wrong. The rest of the screen is the real game: an endless skill tree you grow in real time while the fight plays out below.

The tree is the game

Kills give experience, experience gives levels, levels give points. Everything you do with those points reaches the hero immediately - faster swings, thicker armor, a skeleton clawing out of the floor, a fire that eats the room. There is no pause between "strategy" and "combat": you build during the fight, and what you take in the next ten seconds decides whether your hero walks out of this room.

Every point is a hit

Allocating any node fires a pulse of damage into everything around your hero and closes some wounds. So building isn't only an investment in the future - in a bad moment, spending a point means intervening right now.

A new tree every run

The tree is generated from scratch for every run: the nodes, the branches, whatever waits around the corner. A memorized route doesn't survive into the next attempt - only the skill of reading what you were dealt and building out of it.

Keystones break the rules

Ordinary nodes hand out percentages. Keystones rewrite how the game works, and every one of them charges you for it. Glass Cannon doubles your damage and takes 40% of your health. Vampirism heals you on every hit and shuts regeneration off entirely. Broken builds get assembled out of bargains like these.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Generative AI is used in this game for localization.

Text plays a supporting role here: the game has no story, dialogue or voice acting. Its text is limited to interface labels, node names and short stat descriptions, while the gameplay itself runs on numbers and visual language.
