Shadowvault

Welcome to Shadowvault, a roguelike adventure for the Commodore 64. Descend into the ever-shifting depths of the Shadowvault, uncover ancient lore, and master the power of forbidden contracts.

Key Mechanics

  • Permadeath: Death ends your run immediately.
  • Skill Progression: Skills raise dynamically during combat, improving weapon proficiency and survivability.
  • Equipment Tiers: Weapons and armor grow stronger on deeper floors (bonuses scale 1–5).
  • Fog of War: Only see a 7-tile radius around you. Explore carefully to avoid ambushes.

A very good new roguelike game. I added it to my video along with other games released in May.

Nice game!
