A very sparse, yet polished roguelike. It seems I only ever got cursed items, but that must just be my bad luck!

I got cursed pants too. Nice work, however!

With a title like that I had to play it.
It was fun. Although defeating a frog and a cat didn't feel that brave.
It's pretty hard not to take the first item on a floor.

Reminded me a bit of gateway to aphsai. Nice!

Brings back fond memories of Castle of the Winds.

Great concept! Stops the issue of having to choose items to discard. Great work.

Nicely done!

Cool game, nice job (:
It's a pity that it have no sounds there !

I like the minimalstic graphics a lot. Some sounds would help the mood though. Still had plenty of fun with this. Good job!

If you pursue this, maybe make it so inventory is not so limited. Or, if you keep the limitation, remove traditional roguelike curses, etc. and make everything helpful, or immediately identified.

Interesting theme approach. Roguelikes ftw!

pusheax 2013-12-17 13:01

Really like graphics. One item is unnecessarily restrictive though.

yaru 2013-12-18 12:35

Good work! It's a good idea, gives the game a new layer of difficulty in a already difficult genre like the roguelikes are.

Nice game, missing a bit of information on what the different items do.

nichii 2013-12-22 07:40

Good game. Would be better if you had added some sound effects from sfxr....

kibertoad 2013-12-22 17:03

one item thing comes more like an unnecessary restriction. I'd rather have more options.

gnargle 2013-12-23 17:57

Pretty great! I liked the 'YOGO' item per floor thing, means you really have to plan ahead!

lucentbeam 2013-12-27 20:14

Heck yes! This is awesome. I love roguelikes, and I think this is a great use of the theme. Really great job.

mephi 2013-12-29 12:32

A bit too hard with the items restriction. Anyway good job!

This was more difficult than I expected. I only was able to make it to the 6th floor, but it was still a cool game. Very nice.
