Arcane Hunter
A roguelike treasure hunting game where you delve into ancient ruins to recover arcane artifacts.
Arcane Hunter is a first-person roguelike treasure hunting game developed solo for the Weekly Game Jam - Week 169. The theme was "Treasure Hunter," which I interpreted as a dungeon-delving experience focused on recovering powerful arcane artifacts. Players venture into procedurally generated ruins to collect artifacts that grant unique abilities, which can then be used in subsequent runs. However, death results in losing all collected items, creating tension and risk/reward decisions.
