Caveblazers

Caveblazers is an action-focused roguelike platformer set in a fantasy cave said to hold unimaginable power. Each run drops you into a procedurally generated descent with new layouts, weapons, items, and enemies, until something inevitably kills you and you start over.

The combat tries to push past the typical roguelike's simplistic melee — fluid, fast-paced, with persistent blood effects that mark the screen as you cut through. Weapons feel varied and decisive; magic items add layered effects. Permanent death and randomised potion identities sit alongside an RPG-style inventory and a wide pool of equipment and upgrades.

AI characters populate the caves with smart pathfinding. Friendly ones follow you anywhere; hostile ones track you through hiding spots. Co-op companion characters are a real strategic asset, until something with a club mashes them into the floor.

Bosses sit between each area, each genuinely unique and requiring different tactics. Daily Challenge runs give every player the same seed and one attempt at it. Character cosmetics — hats, tunics, robes, or the nude option — sit alongside dozens of unlockable items and perks awarded for completing optional challenges. From The Yogscast's Deepnight Games.
