You have stumbled into the EmbeRogue Playtest, a turn-based, grid-based and boom-based traditional roguelike where everything will burn, one tile at a time. The first round of playtest netted significant improvements to the very start of the game, helping you understand better how you can navigate down to the boss. But you will probably still be defeated a few times, a lot of times. EmbeRogue isn't meant to be easy and this playtest includes maybe the most difficult part: The first dungeon, the initial point where you will dive and ascend from zero. This is a crucial part of the game, it is meant to make you stronger both in character build and in player's will. Coming out of the Pit in the full release will mean you have the resources and spirit to finish the game(you will need both.) Please have fun, remember dying is fun! And if the world seem lost, your resources too scarce, you can always restart it.
If you have any feedback or suggestion, kind words or appreciations, please tell me in the steam community forums. Also I'd be curious to see if you can beat Akuma The Reckless in this playtest build, tell me about it if you do! Cheers and Thank you,
