Pixel-based roguelike

Play it in your browser!

• Fancy procedural dungeon generation algorithm creates interesting and unique levels
• Fast shadowcasting field-of-view algorithm
• Energy-based turn system (reminiscent of Angband)
• Secret rooms!

Click to move the hero. For navigating tight, mysterious corridors, try using the arrow keys or WASD.

• Green: The aforementioned hero. He looks just like you, doesn't he?
• Yellow: A door. Move towards it to open it, and press C to slam it shut.
• Red: These baddies are monsters that wander around endlessly - hit them from the side to get rid of 'em, but just try to stay out of their way.
• Dark red: This is a corpse, indicating that you probably just killed something. It could also mean you just got trashed. Congratulations!
• Blue: A generic item. Pick it up if it bothers you, but don't expect it to do anything.
• Dark green: A staircase leading to a new floor. Press > to descend - more somewhat repetitive adventures await!
• Gray: A staircase leading back up to a previous floor. It won't do anything if you're on the first floor, but otherwise you can press < to use it.

Once you die (everyone does), just press R to restart. You could also do so mid-game, but you'd lose all your totally valuable progress. We wouldn't want that now, would we?

Anyways, enough chit-chat - get out there and start exploring!
