You love roguelikes  ? My Little Roguelike is back for one month ! It's following the first Roguelike event : https://itch.io/jam/mylittleroguelike1

What is a roguelike ?

A roguelike is a video game where the character's abilities evolve through levels. Those levels are generally procedurally generated and death is permanent and there are no save points, so when the players dies he has to restart all the game from the beginning and his character's abilities are back to its initial state. Every game session is different because levels, ennemies and items are randomly generated.

Rules :

Your game has to be a roguelike. It means your character's abilities evolve through time (not necessarily in a good way, it can be downgraded or just... different). When the player dies he has to restart from the beginning and his abilities are restarted too. That doesn't mean the player can't have "continues" (for exemple if the player has 3 lives he can die and respawn 3 times before death is permanent, it's up to you). Procedural generation for the levels is not an obligation,  for exemple it also can be waves of random ennemies that player has to survive, getting new powers/abilities/items every wave etc... It's up to you again ! Just remember :

• Player stats/items/powers evolve through game session and restart when player dies
• No save points/checkpoints, death is permanent
• Every game session has to be different (using procedural generation for levels/items/ennemies etc) so your game has replayability

Everything else is to your appreciation. Feel free to play with the codes of the genra :)
