Devil Peach Soda

Devil Peach Soda is an action-puzzle roguelike built around fast-paced combat inspired by arcade puzzle games such as Magical Drop and Puzzle Bobble. You fight through a labyrinthine manor to reach Peaches, the huckster devil who trapped you there. Human and devil opponents stand in your way, and if you are defeated, they are contractually obligated to come back to life.

Puzzle combat

Match the color of your attack to an object on the board to deal damage and build mana for weapon skills. You can also deliberately miss to place an orb on the board, then use a cleaving attack to reach other objects. With quick attacks and the right weapons, you can cut through and dismember sections of the board, setting off large cascades of orbs.

To defeat each enemy and move on, destroy all of their hearts on the board while avoiding their attacks and staying alive. You can parry an enemy attack with a well-timed attack of your own. Matching your attack’s color to a falling object splits it and hits the object beyond it, while switching weapons lets you get around or through obstacles. If there is no color match to parry from, you can make a line of missed attacks to cycle your weapon’s color, then dismember the column of misses to split them.

Classes and builds

Character building combines classes, perks and items, letting you shape your approach to combat. You might play an Assassin with a shortsword to tunnel through the board toward a priority target, or a Brawler who builds up one massive attack. You can also pair a heavy greataxe with the elemental Sorcerer class.
