Explore and survive in the Spider-people's web-like tunnels, dropping lower and lower into their labyrinthine domain.

In each level one nest contains the key to unlock the exit. Destroy the nest, take the key and find the trapdoor. Survive using the potions of health and mana you will find in chests throughout the narrow passages of the underground catacombs.

Use your staff to fire bolts of lightning to vanquish your foes. Knock back your enemies with a repelling blast and use this power to rebound off the walls and floors to reach the higher points.

Mastering the angles required to navigate the Spider-people's deep dwellings will take practice and be careful to manage your mana, it does regenerate over time but slowly!

A roguelite action game made in 2 weeks for the Roguelike Jam May 2022

The theme for the jam was "Web".

I incorporated the theme in the use of spiders as enemies but also in the way that the levels are generated in a web-like layout.

Low point, falling into a pit that I wasn't able to climb back out of. High Point, falling into a smaller pit with five spiders trying to fight my way out, dying, and watching them eat my body ha ha, very fun

Didn't notice you were a participant at first as comments are usually on the ratings page.
Hope you rated ;p

Oh oops! I went a bit wild and rated all the games on a spreadsheet before submitting them. Hopefully I did my other comments in the right place, ha ha oh well
