Games $1.99 Chris McFarland iPhone, iPad, iPod

New rooms are procedurally generated every time you play, meaning you'll have to be on your guard for every randomly-placed enemy, elite, boss, and treasure chest you'll come across.

How far can you make it?

Each room gets progressively bigger, harder, and more rewarding the further you go.

The concept is simple yet hard to master:

• Raise your shield to block enemy attacks.
• Lower your shield and strike your foes when the timing is right.
• Jump or move to avoid traps, or use your shield to reduce damage taken.
• Find the key to advance to the next room.
• Collect weapons, outfits, headgear, and shields of various rarities to aid your journey.
• Turn in souls from slain enemies to increase your base stats and passive abilities.
• Stay alive as long as you can!

Brace yourself as you learn the quirks of each foe, trap, and room type so you can strive for that "one more run" high-score victory! Each dungeon is infinite in length so it's up to you to push your limits; local scoreboards and global leaderboards let you track your greatest efforts.

Key Features:
• Single-player action roguelite platformer with randomly-generated levels, each room bigger than the last
• Wreak havoc with trusty axes, teleporting katanas, stealth-enabling emerald daggers, freezing ice wands, bouncing grenades, embroiling flamethrowers, hefty clubs, and powerful rocket launchers
• Find and equip outfits, headgear, shields, and more
• Hunt for power with 7 tiers of item rarities ranging from Basic to Otherworldly
• Learn to conquer multiple enemy types with elite variations, including fire mages, archers, leapers, conductors, ogres, flail knights, feelers, bloats, zaeries, and more
• Satisfying combat with persistent bloodsplats and gibs
• Tactical shield blocking
• Infinite jumping
• Deadly traps and obstacles to try and avoid, such as spinning pinwheels, acid clouds, and extremely pointy spikes
• Coins, hearts, souls, and keys to collect from slain foes
• Die-hard permadeath to keep your adrenaline going
• Treasure chests to loot
• Potions to keep you alive
• Special room events and bosses to master
• Passive abilities for you to gain strength and then some
• Coin-loving merchants
• Shrines of untold power
• Difficulty settings to match your pain threshold
• Challenge modes
• Soft savegame system (so you can quit and resume later)
• Personal local high-score system
• Global Game Center leaderboards for speedruns and bragging rights
• Sacrificial kittens
• MFi controller support

You're not afraid... or are you?

To those who will be lured into Lady Tallowmere's dungeons: good luck.

Unique game!!
sunday7601

I love this game :)


Challenging but fun
* I <3 lamp*

This one will test your tactics and reflexes. Lots of item variety (meaning different weapons have completely different play styles, and loot is randomized with different stats) and enemy variety. Challenging rogue like, but really satisfying. 5 stars for sure.


Incredibly Cool and Fun with Excellent Execution

This roguelike is incredibly well-made, polished and balanced, with an exciting random element where you never know if you will get the big god-like things that can be in a chest. Controls are great. If you’re a fan of procedurally generating content, this appears to be very sophisticated compared to all the others. It is not just slapping layout elements together, but really creates a feeling of uniqueness every time through. Fun fun fun!


You are my idol now
HuskiBoi

Found this today while browsing Steam. Saw the genre and was immediately wondering why I hadn't found it before. This was as much an inspiration as a distraction for me to work on my own game I'm making. Also enjoy spamming buttons and killing things and I feel the 2D genre just saw a gap filled in for me. I hope you keep making games or if you decide, keep building on Tallowmere. Haven't killed the cats yet. RNGesus has been with me on finding this game and seeing that it came out today and sparingly in game. Also cool that you're solo. I like having full control. I'm just rambling now but I'm going to buy it again on PC if that counts as a recommendation.


Its awesome but needs some work.
Majinmariosnorlaxbuuking

I love this game. It's awesome and entertains me. But there is just one problem that ruins it for me. The constant crashing. I have the iPad mini from 2012 and whenever I try to play, it'll just crash. It gets frustrating because I either can't play or if it does let me play, it'll crash anyway. Please find a way to fix this and this three will become a five.


Strangly Awesome!

When I first opened this game I thought I had wasted my money. Its a bit weird. Now I cant stop playing. I am not getting any work done.

Really good control scheme! It has a fantastic adventure feel. Lots of treasures and enemies with a great old school feel. Probably my favorite iPhone game. Hope it's on the PS4!


Stand-out Dungeon Crawler!
Holokaus_

This game is super amazing! Very intuitive control scheme and visuals are looking great on my iP6+. Thank you for adding the ability to adjust the text sizes, I can very much enjoy the experience w/o squinting. Overall, great rough-like platform and just awesome! For developers, if you are reading this; please add additional weapons, different enemies along with major bosses similar to the hydra. LOVE THE HYDRA! Hope it's not too much to ask for. You guys rock!
