  • Honor the Gods: Provide the Gods some amusement by willingly accepting additional burdens in battle and they will reward you with their favor. Burdens change the rules of combat in challenging ways that will force you to adopt new strategies.

THE WORLD:

This adventure begins with light surrounded by pitch darkness. This light is getting bigger and bigger. A large portal opens next to you, a mysterious being emerges from it. He gives you three creatures and a set of powerful scrolls for you to save a world, the world of Alexandria.

Alexandria is an ancient world that was once a utopia. This earth is considered the center of the universe, it is through it that cosmic bridges pass, breathing life into all inhabited worlds. Beings spread out over the universe have learned to use these bridges to travel to Alexandria, to mine ancient resources and scrolls from it, stored in hidden vaults scattered throughout the land.

In addition to Alexandria, there are two other worlds: Gradon and Alevia.

Gradon is a world, the main inhabitants of which are humans and dwarves. They share the world with huge mammoths, insects, snakes and other animals.

Alevia is a world of elves, more than half of the world is covered with mysterious forests called Lorandia . These forests are very dangerous, and rarely has anyone returned from there unharmed.

Setting Sun

Setting Sun

Setting Sun is an Co-op Rogue-lite Dungeon Crawler.

It’s set in a universe during the Japanese Edo period where Yokai roam the world freely.

The land is in turmoil because the Shogun rules with an iron fist.

A couple of wanderers answer the call to help mankind and fight the source of the corruption together.

THE SHOGUN’S DOMAIN

Traverse through a randomly generated room-based dungeon covering multiple zones on your way to the castle.

Several different types of rooms can be discovered on your way to the boss like enemy rooms, healing rooms, gamble rooms,…

THE SHINTO PANTHEON WATCHES OVER YOU

You have a chance to discover Dragon Shrines in the dungeon which will allow you to alter your abilities for that dungeon run.

So each time you start a new dungeon run you can try out a different build.

REBUILD THE VILLAGE

Aside from the dungeon the game also contains a village.

The village is like a sanctuary for the player where he can roam around before and after dungeon runs, talk to NPCs, buy upgrades, craft gear and more!

When you first start the game, the town is pretty abandoned.

But along your travels in the dungeon, you have a chance to find new characters to recruit to your town which unlocks new features.

For example finding Masamune on your travels will unlock the blacksmith in town and will allow you to craft new gear with better stats.

THE WANDERER

Multiple classes are planned but the first playable class in Setting Sun is the Ronin.

A Ronin was a Samurai without a master. An expert in the art of sword fighting but one who chose not to honor the code of the Warrior and thus considered “on his own” or a vagrant.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Slice your way through a procedurally generated dungeon

  • Master a skill-based fighting system

  • Learn the ways of the Ronin class (and several other classes planned)

  • Fight the Shogun’s army, thiefs, Yakuza and even Yokai

  • Try out different builds each run by discovering new blessings

  • Play the game solo or couch co-op

  • Recruit new allies and bring life back to the village

  • Unlock new buildings and features in town

  • Find new patterns to craft different gear sets or cook new Sushi dishes

  • Enjoy a unique trapanese soundtrack

  • Take a relaxing bath in the hot springs

Wartune Reborn

Wartune Reborn

I was going to protect this game because of the nice memories, but I can’t at the moment.

There are only 5 servers shown 88-92 (I bet it will eventually get to hundreds, glad that doesn’t show them all and say “you can’t join this server”), in the old browser version, servers had different timezones, from those five, 3 have the same time and the other 2 has -1 hour… It would be cool if you could actually see the timezones before creating a character, I made one for all those servers just to get dissapointed… I know the rest is some grind and P2W stuff, but not sure if I should play with the time issue, should I wait for other servers?

Rumours From Elsewhere

Rumours From Elsewhere

Deep and challenging platform action game attempting to meld Prince of Persia with a modern Roguelite. Momentum based platforming/parkour, ability based combat with character classes. Inspired level design, smooth controls, solid performance, excellent music, and imaginative worldbuilding are enough to carry the experience through a steep learning curve and significant UI deficiencies as well as occasional frustrating bugs (and sadistic gameplay systems that act like bugs).

I recommend this game if you like hard platformers with an emphasis on momentum rather than air control. Be warned, however, that the high-pressure gameplay involves features like a stamina bar (depletes with attack or dash but not jump or abilities), a timer on every level (which have randomized objectives), potions that do damage to you, weapons that kill you if you unequip them, monsters that CC you so other monsters can knockback you to the other side of the map where you fall in a lethal trap…you get the idea. This game is rewarding but punishing and a better UI would make it more comfortable.

This game is a lot of fun!

I love the look of the game, and it has a ton of character in everything you play as, kill, pick up, or read. Not to mention the sound design and music are great. Once I got used to the core mechanics, I was hooked and kept starting new runs to discover more about the game. Each of the characters feels unique, just as each of the areas are distinct, vibrant, and fun (except Misty Peaks, that place is agony).

On the downside, sometimes the platforming is just a little unwieldy. The jumping or dashing or platform grabbing seemed to occasionally glitch and caused me some significant frustration. This didn’t ruin the game by any means, but it did feel like an unfair game flaw that would crop up now and again. Also, here and there a hit box would be in dire need of updating.
