Explore a mysterious planet in Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a Metroidvania-style platformer in which you play the survivor of a spaceship crash exploring an alien planet filled with swarms of monsters. As time passes, the game’s difficulty level increases, forcing you to balance the need to upgrade with the risk of facing more dangerous creatures.
Action platformer with roguelike elements
Risk of Rain is an action platformer with roguelike elements. With permanent death as a primary feature, players will have to play their best to get as far as possible. Fight on a mysterious planet with randomly spawning enemies and bosses, either alone or with 3 friends in online co-op. With over 100 items at your disposal, you will find the tools you need to find the teleporter back home. Discover a myriad of randomly chosen stages, from the desolate forest to the frozen tundra.
The three main goals for our game are simple:
1. Design a game that is randomly generated every play-through, to keep replayability high and fresh.
2. Time = difficulty. The higher the in-game time gets, the harder the difficulty gets. Keeping a sense of urgency keeps the game exciting!
3. Be enjoyable, regardless of whether you win or lose. No more fussing with complex and non-intuitive gameplay patterns. Players should not blame the game for their loss!
