STORY Dying is a thing. Escaping from hell is another.

Underbreak is an Action/Shooter game with rogue-like mechanics, where you have to deal with demons on each level to improve your character (but at a cost : - )). More than 28 different runs !

As a newcomer in hell, you’ll try your way out of the underworld. Shoot the imps and get the keys to go higher and closer to the surface. But freedom has a price, and some pacts with demons will need to be signed…

Will you spend your life wisely enough to get through the circles of doom? Or die trying?

WebGL version added

Hi there, if you haven't had a chance yet, come try our game! I added a WebGL build (although I still suggest downloading it and using a gamepad (unfortunately the gamepad is having issue on WebGL so there you can only use Keyboard + mouse)).

Anyway, our game is a single boss fight and you have to combine items and imbue them with some of your life force (you are an alchemist) to transmutate them into an attack a shield or a cure.

Your goal? Bring down this big guy ↓ LD44-optimized.gif

Implementing your feedback

After getting a lot of feedback from this amazing community about the animations in our game being too slow, we decided to fix the problem. We have done this by adding a "Fast-Forward" button to the topleft of the screen. Clicking it will make the game fastforward until the next animation. And if you want to fast forward alot, you can lock the button by pressing the lock button next to it!

We have also added the names of the gods and have given them a short description as to what they stand for, so people actually know what they are doing.

Make sure to give our little game a go if you haven't played it yet, especially now that you can speed up the process if needed!

Blood Coins V1.1 is out NOW

I have just finished clearing out annoying bugs, that many of you had troubles with. Here is a detailed list of the changes:

-> The respawn now works. You can play the game multiple times until you find the ending that suits you best!

-> The dialogs are now way faster and less annoying to deal with. No more waiting for the text to slowly appear one by one.

-> The flying was a huge problem for most of you, and we, me and @marius-boenisch werent satisfied with that either. It wasnt supposed to be that way. But the stress at the end took its toll. However, now with V 1.1 flying feels way more intuitive and easier. You also dont fly with space anymore, but W for upwards and S for downwards. Check it out, there are some awesome boss fight at the end ;)

-> You can finally skip the annoying cutscene at the beginning if you want to play over and over again!

-> More good news considering combat and controls: The player now attacks in the direction the mouse cursor is facing. That also was something many people disliked and we agree, it was not optimal.

We appreciate every feedback for the new release and hope, that even some of you who already played the game, download the new version and tell us again your thoughts. Have a nice day!

This is what procedural generation was made for

Wandering around aimlessly in an infinite 3D world is actually pretty fun!

Text based goodness

Anyone looking for something text based that works within a web browser, please feel free to have a go of my entry.

https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/44/the-day-of-the-chosen

It's my first entry since 2013. I've been away from development for so long, it's good to have as much feedback as possible.

There are multiple endings to this one so be sure to try it at least twice, picking different things each time in order to get a better feel for the experience.

40+ ratings! You're awesome! Thank you

If you played my entry, I would like to thank you for feedback and playing the game! You are awesome!

If you didn't play my entry, I would encourage you to play my game and rate it. I would be really grateful.

I think this is my best game I have ever made for game jam. I'm really proud of me that I finished the game how I wanted. Although, I'm backing to my main project now More on twitter. Peace ;)

Render all the levels!

Just wrote a little scene in Godot that renders each level of Fluffensnuff and saves it as one huge image. Found it pretty nifty to talk about levels and progression :D

I can share the code if anyone is interested, it's pretty straight forward (as is everything with godot it seems).

Add an easy mod !

Hello ! Here my game from the Ludum Dare Game Jam

ncEM3V.gif

After reads some comments I took time to add an easy mode. To be honest, after 72 hours of work on it I wasn't really objective on the difficulty at the end of the Jam XD
