Playtest Info

Welcome to our pre-alpha page! This is a very early stage of our game's development. We would appreciate if you took the time to test our game as it is right now and leave feedback on our page or website.

Summary

Apocalypse Approaches is a fast-paced top-down roguelike where time controls your health, magic, and currency. Battle through procedurally generated dungeons and defeat enemies to regain lost time. Upgrade your weapon, cast powerful spells, and survive as the clock constantly ticks down.

Game Features

  • Time-limit - Every run has limited time, and every moment drains it. Take damage? Lose more time. Run out of time? Game over. Embrace armageddon and loop back.

  • Time-based combat - Defeat enemies to gain back lost time. Outpace damage taken with damage dealt for ultimate success! Every second can mean the difference between survival and defeat.

  • Time-based spellcasting - Gain time from enemies to recharge spells.

  • Time-based shopping - Low on gold? Sacrifice time to make up the difference.

  • Fast decision making - Will you spend time looking for upgrades to aid your journey, or move straight for the exit?

  • Procedural dungeon generation - Each run is a new and different challenge, as the world changes between each loop.

  • Adaptive Audio - Each run is scored by an adaptive soundtrack that changes greatly in intensity as you run lower on time.

  • Meta Progression - Scrap of a mysterious ore and Entropy can help further resist the time loop's reset. Use these currencies well to bolster your future runs!

Face the Apocalypse

After learning about the approaching apocalypse from the seer, you quickly realize how little time is left before the end of the world. Outside a small bubble of security lies a ruined landscape ravaged by devils, demons, and other untold horrors of the night. Armed with nothing more than weapons you find, brave the forces of darkness and bring an end to the apocalypse before it consumes all.

Solve the Mystery

Why is the apocalypse approaching? Why do you return to the inner city after dying? How can the townsfolk remember you? What does it all have to do with you? These questions need answers, but none of them matter so much as killing the thing that's causing it. You know that if you just keep charging forwards, you'll find the answer eventually.

Explore the world

Each loop is met with a uniquely twisted and destroyed landscape. With several distinct areas to brave, each more perilous than the last, you'll find new enemies, challenges, and mysteries to solve. You must navigate them all in order to find the end. Run out of time in one, and find yourself returning to the beginning.
