Wrathflame

Wrathflame is a dark fantasy, top-down 2D bullet hell shooter with Pico8 pixel graphics and chiptune music. You play as a sorcerer-monk of the order of Wrathflame, fighting the machinations of the heretical Wyvern cult across 20 levels. After each level, you can level up one of your spells.

Combat and progression

Your attacks autofire, while you control your movement and choose when to focus or use Powerfire. Focus targets the position of your closest enemy. Holding it slows your movement to half speed and regenerates mana; once your mana is full, it regenerates your health. Powerfire consumes mana while held, doubles the damage of all your attacks and makes you move twice as fast.

You begin rusty, with the basics of one spell of your choice. Completing levels lets you improve any of your four spells, each of which has 20 levels. Maxing out all four takes four playthroughs. After finishing the game, you can keep playing through it endlessly, with each successive playthrough becoming more difficult.
