Dead Cells(V20240819)

【Game Introduction】

Game features:

Roguelite+ Metroid Castlevania (new type: RogueVania) : Like Metroid Castlevania, players experience gradual exploration in a connected world that combines the replayability of a Roguelike with a thrilling permadeath experience.
Soulful Combat: Whether facing a Boss or a rogue, the combat system is based on pattern recognition, weapons and spells are useful, you need to make the most of what you have at hand, and remember to roll and roll at all times.
Non-linear flow: Unlock new levels on repeated deaths, explore unknown corners of the castle, and fight a ruthless Boss. The element of discovery: Constantly discovering new surprises: hidden rooms, secret passageways, and fascinating sights tucked away in the corners of the castle: you don't have to look back, you'll die.












Roguelike, roguelike-like, Rogueschmike... No matter what you call it, there always seems to be some new term invented! With that being the case, we recommend our mashup of Metroidvania and Roguelike features, and call this new genre RogueVANIA! Okay, so the name doesn't sound like that in Chinese, but anyway, I'll explain some of the features of the game in detail below.

When we talk about Metroid Castlevania games, we usually mean a vast world consisting of several carefully designed fixed and connected levels. The game arena is a vast island that doesn't change at all. The creatures, bosses, and routes are all pre-set and hidden somewhere in the wide world to be explored. How to find them, of course, is another story.

In Dead Cell, however, death replaces the traditional mechanic of the classic Metroid Castlevania games that repeatedly went backwards to explore. At first, it seems like there are a lot of unreachable areas strolling along your path, but as you explore the world, the clues to these puzzles are revealed. Maybe it's a key, maybe it's a new special moving skill, maybe it's some lost skill. Once unlocked, you have this knowledge forever, and it allows you to explore the wider world of the game. Tired of stinking sewers? Climb to the top of the city and breathe the fresh air! Use your skills and experience and loot to determine your path.

Furthermore, as the genre name Rogue Galaxy City (RogueVania) implicitly implies, we are also heavily influenced by the popularity of the Roguelite genre in recent years. In the game, there are no checkpoints to save your real-time progress, and you face all kinds of nerve-racking, adrenaline-pumping danger. You have a lot to lose if you die, so you need to do everything you can to escape. Unlike traditional levels with fixed enemy positions and terrain designs, you can't challenge procedure-generated levels without developing intuition, reflexes, and the ability to adapt to changing situations.

As we mentioned, we are acutely aware that many players have a bad impression of procedurally generated maps, associating them with bad, boring levels and uninteresting, empty gameplay. Therefore, we chose a hybrid and eclectic approach to overcome this challenge, with each round of the game map essentially being a patchwork of several carefully designed small levels. In this way, you can enjoy a full, detailed, well-crafted game world and experience new things with each new game.

Don't underestimate the difficulty of the game, it won't be a walk in the park. Meet the monster and Boss battles designed based on pattern recognition, learn and master the combat skills in battle by battle, and become stronger and stronger. You need to master a variety of weapons that you can use in a unique way, and use rolling and dodging as an instinct to avoid the unexpected tides that come your way. We follow the principle of "hard but fair".

Are you tired of violence and death? There are many other elements to explore, finding secret rooms and hidden passages, and discovering fascinating landscapes hidden deep within the castle. Our dear art designers, Thomas and Gwen, have created a large number of exquisite and detailed pixel art illustrations for this book, which fill the world with beauty and touching, and create many landscapes worth staying in. Who knows, you might also care about the stories behind these beautiful landscapes?

The culture in this game is a collaboration between Enigma Voice and Indienova.
