INKFARERS: Pixel Roguelike RPG

INKFARERS is a pixel art roguelite RPG where your weapon is a pen. Lead a party of fantasy heroes down the road: they march and fight on their own. When a foe winds up an attack, a shape appears over its head. Draw that shape before the blow lands to parry it, and your heroes strike back. Draw to parry Draw the shape clean and quick for a Perfect: more damage, extra ink and a faster charge for your heroes. Simple lines come first, then flurries of three and boss combos drawn in order. There are 25 shapes to learn. A party of heroes Eight heroes: knight, ranger, mage, priest, summoner, rogue, bard and alchemist. Bring up to four at once. Your parries charge each hero's power, and drawing that hero's own symbol casts it: a shield dome that blocks the next 2 hits, a rain of arrows, a hail of comets, a rising light that heals and revives, a thicket spirit that joins the fight, a sweep of daggers, a song that slows the shape timers and a flask that freezes every foe. Six lands, six bosses Walk from the meadows of Brightmead through Tawnywood, Gloamfen, Palecrag and the Sunken Dunes to Quillhold. Each land has a guardian halfway, with a twist of its own, and a boss fight at the end. A roguelite run Every run is a fresh trip down the road. After each guardian and boss, pick 1 of 3 perks that last for the rest of the run. With more than 40 perks in the game, you build your party a different way each time. Grow stronger between runs The ink you collect is kept when a run ends. Spend it in the upgrade tree on more than 50 permanent upgrades: heroes to unlock, room for a fourth hero, stronger hero powers, and signstones that start your runs deeper in. Endless mode and records Beat the final boss once to open Endless mode: the six lands loop and grow harder, and your farthest distance is your score. A book of records keeps every foe you have met, your highest Perfect rate on each shape and how far you have gone in Endless mode.
