TowerClimb

TowerClimb is a difficult procedurally generated platformer with roguelike elements, five years in the making by brothers Davioware and Quazi. The fantasy world's premise: enormous and mysterious towers of ancient unknown origin stand above humanity, extending to the heavens. Humans climb them out of curiosity, usually dying. You play one of those humans, weak but driven by iron will to reach the top.

Each man's adventure is different. Run, climb, jump, swim and fly your way up the tower's atmospheric and lethal worlds, using items and resources found along the way. The platforming mechanics combine tight responsive controls with climbing mechanics that demand surroundings awareness and continuous planning for the next ascent. Different worlds introduce new mechanics, forcing your playstyle to evolve as you go higher.

A screenshot of every man's death is saved alongside the cause of death, tracking every attempt across hundreds of failures. Bonus modes unlock on top of the main game. Local multiplayer supports up to 25 simultaneous players, though only 4 controllers (Xinput limitation) are natively supported, with remaining players using the keyboard. Random events, rare items and reshuffled levels keep every session fresh.
