Newborn of the ABYSS

Author Comments

Deep beneath the dead world's crust, lies a realm never before seen by mankind's prying eyes. A world as beautiful as it is dangerous, a world of wonder and mystery. Inhabited only by ferocious predators, some of which have evolved incredible abilities, even making their prey believe they have mirrored and multiplied. Be the first one to descend into the Abyss and see the mysteries that await you.

Don't be scared, just close your eyes and jump into the darkness below.


Controls:

  • WASD to move
  • left click to shoot

Like you framera is low? If that is the case try downloading this game from itch https://tycro-games.itch.io/newborn-of-the-abyss. Sorry we don't have some quality settings so you can play it.

pretty good

I think the player moves a little slowly, but it looks really good.

Tycro-Games responds:

We plan to make the game a bit more enjoyable, we ll keep in mind this

It looks pretty great (the lighting effects really work well). I like the bullet reflection mechanic, as it gives you an incentive to not just spam shots all the time. I cannot figure out what planting shrooms is supposed to do (other than slightly draining your life). The effect of dashing feels pretty weak. Right now the game feels pretty difficult, it's mainly the spreadshot enemies that give me a lot of trouble, I have only made it to the second floor so far because of them.

Tycro-Games responds:

Well it is too hard, and we are going yo make it easier in the next version, the shrooms are useful when you are in a big dungeon and it is hard to not get lost. Glad you told us what is wrong.

Good game! The player's bullets bouncing back and hitting the player is a bit annoying, as well as the player being a bit too slow but other than that, cool pixel art and lighting effects!

Tycro-Games responds:

Was made for a game jam with the theme mirror, we plan to remove that and make the game more strategic
