Abaddon
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Abaddon is my entry for the 7drl game jam 2024.
Additional Information on how to trigger the Horse Maneuvers, because I did miss it in the In-Game Help |
To activate "Thunderstruck" press "." multiple times to wait. If you are near an enemy, it will trigger. |
It's a turn-based, tactical dungeon crawler using 2d grid-based environments.
It makes heavy use of procedural generation for the dungeon, enemy & item generation.
You are given a quest for revenge, a demon horse and a sword called "Vengeance".
Now you must ride, up from hell, to seek revenge on those who wronged you.
Unique features:
- A finite health pool, no regeneration
- Sword of Vengeance gets more powerful with every drained blood of drop
- A demon horse companion, can be mounted for special combat maneuvers
- Tactical combat with heavy focus on environmental interactions
- 6 Dungeon Levels to beat
I did re-use assets and the core game engine I built for another project.
Clarification on what work was done during the 7days:
- New Core Sprites (Main Character, Horse & Weapons & Armors)
- Adjustment of the existing dungeon generation (eg. by adding new room templates)
- Complete Sound Design
- All of the scrolls/potions and abilities for the game
- All of the story elements & win condition
- All of the core game mechanics:
- The horse pet with the maneuvers
- The sword of vengeance with the blood mechanic
- The end boss
- The environmental hazards and their effects
