Use your dash to pause time and establish the perfect attack, pushing enemies into walls to conserve ammo.
Escape with as much loot as you can!
🧠And that's another game wrapped: I just finished A Forest, my #nonviolent tradtional #roguelike. While designing a non-violent roguelike, I might have
accidentally stumbled into interactive fiction.

AvivI'm a little anxious to share it, because it's not up to my preferred completion standard, but I participated in Roguetemple's Fortnight event, making a roguelike-take on Horizon: Zero Dawn :)
(Or at least, a passable prototype of one)
Streaming a little #roguelike #14DRL #gamedev on Twitch, if anyone's interested in hanging out.

Here's my (very rough, mostly incomprehensible beyond page 1) pre-jam design thinking: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iTWqd9br6944DuKysxqC0YUqzb7J4iCEwU6A0JFWuh4/edit?tab=t.0

I'll be sharing in-progress pictures and videos during the jam.
