Demo 2.3 Update

21 Feb

Demo V2.3:
One of the fastest and biggest patches yet!
We've been doing our best to bang this out as fast as possible. There's a lot of exciting changes and improvements to the game. Most notable is simply that the game is like 200% more fun to play. Blessing effects occur way more often, and each room gives bigger rewards, while enemies scale up faster than before.

We have a new weapon, charging thornballs, and the ability to string together Rival Abilities faster. The game has a higher advanced play now without affecting the base gameplay.

The big focus is on having fun, even if it means breaking the game is all that much easier. Curses =/= fun, so they're out, replaced by something called Gambits which is sort of like getting a huge bonus plus a huge curse at the same time. This helps with making every run feel way different than the last.

We also integrated new UI for dialogue. You will notice that there are sparingly few emotions and animations currently, but we hope to fill this out over the next few months, giving a very full and vibrant feel to the dialogue exchanges.

There's yet more coming out for next patch. We have big changes planned with adding a combo meter to replace the Hype meter (it's just easier to understand combo bars), more weapons, blessings, synergies, and enemies! We're also very excited to finally put in some better art soon and really beautify up the landscape... With more things you can destroy!

Thank you all for your support. We have Steam Events coming up again soon and hope to make our big push for more wishlists, so expect things like new screenshots and trailers too. See you in a month with the next patch!

Feedback

It's a banger; ok didn't know I couldn't add comments. Fun style, neat main mechanic, enough plotty thing to give purpose to runs. Didn't commit brain cells to telling if the various blessings were being replaced, stacked, or devolving at various points (x attack type becomes poison, same type now becomes ripple, ripple now becomes bigger, etc). Boons work like Hades so some clarity on 'replaces xyz' would clean that up. The ! made finding interactions simple. No idea what that tiny sapling was about...

Demo 2.0 Update

28 Dec, 2023

Demo 2.0 Update:
There was a break on the game for about a month after the Demo was released, partially to gauge reactions and look at what was most important to change. Huge thanks to all those giving feedback the last couple months. Going through streams and videos is a treat, and we are both surprised and pleased to see the demo popping up again and again around the internet. Sorry that we missed a few Rogue Labyrinth streams! It was a hectic couple months.

The biggest pain points were looked at to be solved first:
-The transversal system felt like there weren't enough choices
-There wasn't a lot of "punch" to the game's action
-The first 10 minutes of the game felt more unnecessary, and it was better to be put in the game directly

Our biggest changes were putting in the new Map system, so now players can plot out where they want to go and how long it takes to get there. We also now have a bit of time freeze on enemies when they are hit to give a nice snap to attacks.
Lastly, and the one we are most unsure of, the tutorial has been remade so it blends into the player's first run, rather than have a slower tutorial section. Overall testing has shown most elements of the game make sense after the much shorter tutorial, but it is still worrisome.

The control scheme has just been improved, however there is still work to be done to finish up adding a mouse+keyboard control scheme, as well as remappable controls. These will happen, along with a lot of performance updates, over the next few weeks.

There is still a lot of rebalancing and new little features to expand on the map system, but we want to first and foremost focus on accessibility and game performance. Just know that there's lots of new powers, conversations, and cute monster guys to come!

Demo Release!

3 Oct, 2023

Hello Leaflings!
We are pleased to announce that our Rogue Labyrinth Demo has been successfully released!

Thank you every tester and supporter who has been around these last months as we have slowly made our way to this point!
We've been in all sorts of game events, like PAX West's Indie SIX, which was a huge catalyst in making us decide to release this demo at all.

The next big step of our journey is updating the Demo periodically with more content and fixes until we finally release the Early Access next year. You can expect BIG content updates to the demo over the new few months. We also have channels in our Discord Server for suggestions and reporting bugs.
Speaking of, our Discord Server has had a small makeover! We now have a FAQ channel, and a channel to directly ask us devs your questions. Please do join the community - introduce yourselves and argue which character is hottest.
Please tell us if you are streaming or making any content of the game! We love seeing people enjoy what we have created.

We now have an updated trailer for the game here:

Controller only?

This is controller only?

Why did the art style change so much?

I really liked the previous art style, but this version seems... toned down. Less expression overall. Was there a real-world constraint that forced you to replace artists? Still addicted to your game, though!

Please add improved control schemes

I kept instinctively pressing Circle on my controller since most of the action games I play use a classic 'cancel-to-dodge' button scheme. Giving us full control over button settings will go a long way.

Linux demo but no system requirements?

Hi, just wanted to check this is actually releasing for Linux? It shows it has a Linux demo, but only shows Windows/macOS in the system requirements.
