Tallowmere

Tallowmere is a 2D action roguelike-inspired platformer about indulging Lady Tallowmere and seeing how far you can delve into her lovingly violent dungeons. New rooms are procedurally generated every time you play, so you stay on guard for every randomly placed enemy, elite, boss and treasure chest, and each room grows bigger, harder and more rewarding the further you go.

The concept is simple but hard to master: raise your shield to block enemy attacks, lower it and strike when the timing is right, jump or move to dodge traps, and find the key to advance. You collect weapons, outfits, headgear and shields across seven rarity tiers from Basic to Otherworldly, and turn in souls from slain enemies to boost your base stats and passive abilities. Each dungeon is infinite, so it is up to you to push your limits, with local and online leaderboards tracking your best.

The game offers satisfying combat with persistent bloodsplats and gibs, tactical shield blocking, infinite jumping, and a deadly mix of traps from spinning pinwheels to acid clouds. Enemy types range from fire mages and archers to ogres and flail knights, each with elite variations. Single-player and local co-op for up to four players sharing one screen, hardcore permadeath, difficulty settings, challenge modes and a soft savegame system round it out, and the game is translated into many languages.
