About the game

A dark fantasy, grid-based dungeon crawler where every step hides peril. Loot, adapt, and survive in turn-based battles as you lead lost souls through cursed halls in this rogue-lite descent into madness.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.

AI helped me a lot when moving from GML to C#. The music in the Early Access version is also AI generated this is just a free-time hobby project and I mainly needed some semi ambient tracks to set the mood. Later on, I plan to purchase proper human made tracks before the full release. Towards the end of development I also used an AI plugin for Aseprite to speed up animating some of my own hand drawn sprites, but the very vast majority of the graphics was made by me, handcrafted, pixel by pixel.
