A Top Down 2D Survival Rogue-like Game

A survival game for the exploration of Bevy/Rust and game development.

Feature-rich roguelike survival gameplay:

• [x] Diablo-style loot with randomized attribute rolls
• [x] Stat points upon level, tons of attributes to increase
• [x] HP, Mana, Food resources
• [x] Full procedural world generation, with tons of foliage, plants, etc
• [x] Random dungeon generation (Dimention support, like minecraft)
• [x] Chunking optimizations
• [x] Day/Night cycle
• [x] 4 enemies and 1 boss with animations and different attack styles/flavor
• [x] Tons of weapon types: melee, ranged, and magic with diferent play styles
• [x] Weapon upgrades (bows shoot in a spread, chain lightning upgrade, etc)
• [x] Fully custom UI implementation: Inventory, Containers(chests), Stats page, tooltips, HUD, etc
• [x] Damage numbers!
• [x] Wind shader for trees
• [x] Custom shader to render player's armor assets on top of existing animation files, without the need for new assets per armor piece combination
• [x] Tons of different items for crafting, building, and utility (like potions, food)
• [x] Beautiful art pack and UI (still a WIP)
• [x] Internal tooling for easy addition of new enemies, items, world generation items/params, etc all with the power of bevy_proto and custom tooling to make further development fast and easy!
• [x] Simple enemy AI, expanding to mroe complex behaviors soon
• [x] Saving/Loading gameplay -> blocked upstream for bevy_ecs_tilemap, a WIP
• [ ] Gameplay integration for mentioned weapon upgrades
• [ ] More bosses/enemies! -> (huge art bottleneck)

Future Plans & Goals

The goal is to launch on steam one day. The current state of the game is a lot better than it was a year ago, and im sure it will be even better next year. I currently have no idea when it will be ready for an early access release.

I am in the process of getting a ton more pixel art/animation assets in order to build out the bosses in the game, as well as some more hostile and passive mobs.

Beyond adding more art/creatures, there are some open game-design related concepts that need to be figured out before the game feels right. Some of those missing things are part of the list above, but a lot of them are unknown.

If you would like to play-test this game but don't know how to set up rust to compile it, contact me for an executable build of the game.
