Upcoming quirky roguelite The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles receives a demo ahead of its October 23 release.
The meme-aware roguelite by “Fix-a-Bug” studio is letting gamers set foot into the unknowable and the unpixelable in this free Steam demo.
Here’s the rundown and a trailer:
Combining a tried and tested pixel art aesthetic, with a distinct blend of turn-based arcade style combat and roguelite replayability, The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles delivers a throwback to the golden age of dungeon crawling. With a cast of eccentric characters, tricky foes, plenty of jokes, and a lot of pop culture references to unearth, every adventure through the Hyper-Dungeon will throw up new encounters to overcome…
Don’t let the funny dialogue and jokes fool you, though, this dungeon wants to chew you up and spit you out, again and again! Combat in The Crazy-Hyper Dungeon Chronicles features a unique fusion of turn-based strategy and twitch-based arcade action.
Forget just picking an attack from a menu, you’ll need lightning-fast reflexes to hit the “sweet spot” on a swing meter for critical hits and perfectly time your blocks to parry enemy attacks. Mastering this system will unlock powerful new abilities for each weapon, too!
Whether you’re a combat-focused Destroyer, a stealthy Explorer, or a lore-seeking Resolver, the demo offers a glimpse into what makes this game a truly hyper experience. The full game will feature a robust crafting system, deep character customization, and more secrets than you can shake a pixelated stick at.
The hyper features that await:
Journey into an ever-shifting dungeon brimming with traps, twists, and dead ends.
Choose your path with three unique playstyles: the brute-force Destroyer, the fearless Explorer, or the clever Resolver.
Master a one-of-a-kind blend of turn-based strategy and fast-paced arcade combat.
Uncover the secrets of the dungeon and its legendary previous adventurer by piecing together hidden messages and journal scraps.
Dive into the action with an easy-to-learn system that offers endless strategic depth to master.
