Overworld 1.12 Released on Itch.io

Overworld
A browser roguelike made in HTML5

Overworld is now available on the web through itch.io.

It's been a long time coming for this vanilla Javascript roguelike. Intended as a mobile game, the Android build has always received the most love, with iOS always a possibility but far out of scope. I'm happy to report the itch.io presentation is excellent on mobile, and this humble minimalist roguelike should now be accessible to the broader audience.

Given the landscape of indie games these days, the achievements are modest, but for posterity:

  • Mobile first pixel art roguelike
  • 10 minute mini sessions
  • 35 different playable heroes
  • Introductory story, tutorial mode, replays
  • Built-in encyclopedia and manual
  • 10 years of dev time for the smoothest experience

Over the coming weeks I'll announce on the big subreddits and release the remaining media I have. And then I'll most likely have finished breathing this gift into the ether, to turn up in people's searches now and again until the end of time.

So long, and thanks for all the fish.
