Abyssmare

Abyssmare is a near-future science-fiction action game that combines first-person shooting with roguelite systems in a world based on the Cthulhu Mythos. You explore dungeons, search their mazes for resources and find the elevator to the next level, fighting the creatures in your way.

Explore the dungeons

The mazes appear randomly generated, but their variations are manually designed to provide randomness while preserving a designed exploration experience. You can find ammunition, medical kits, energy crystals, weapons and equipment as you explore. The game emphasizes fast movement and sustained firepower.

Weapons and equipment

Abyssmare includes more than 30 firearms, more than 20 sub-weapons with different functions, and a melee weapon for each profession. More than 40 equipment components have distinct functions and effects. Equipment can also have random entries.

Character growth

Growth takes place both during individual adventures and across multiple runs. In a run, you acquire weapons and equipment, improve personal attributes, gain random buffs and shop at temporary stores. Whether you win or die, each adventure earns resources that you can spend after the run to permanently increase the protagonist’s strength.

The game also includes custom characters, professions and character attributes.

Enemies

There are 16 regular enemies and 10 bosses. Except for the human enemies, they are based on creatures from classic Cthulhu Mythos novels. The game selects Mythos monsters and Old Ones roughly human-sized and vulnerable to human weapons, then gives them new designs. Most enemies have undergone physical modifications and wear “ShenWei” exoskeletons.
