Deepwarden (Teaser)Original Title

Beneath the mountain town of Hollowmere, the old bell has started ringing by itself, and each night something climbs out of the mines. You are the town's last warden. Take your sword and your lantern, go down, and find out who rings the bell.

Deepwarden is a first-person dungeon crawler with real-time fighting in smooth ray-cast tunnels: swing your sword, block, or fire a lantern flare that stuns. Rats crawl back out of their burrows until you smash the burrows; skeleton miners and light-hating Bell-wraiths roam the workings, and a skeleton foreman guards the stairs. Secrets hide behind cracked walls, loose stones and glowing runes, and an automap fills in as you explore. The soundtrack switches between exploring, combat and the boss without missing a beat, and a speedrun timer keeps your best time and most secrets for the session.

This teaser is one complete floor of the upper mine workings, on a standard 32K cartridge. The full game, in development on a 128K MegaCart, adds the grey deep galleries and a bell-cult temple, bats, spiders, hooded cultists and the Bell-Ringer's Servant, parries and ripostes, and a Stonebreaker rune to find on every floor.

Controls: the joystick or the Super Action Controller.
