A Prophecy of Steam and Punks
*Don't forget to spend your gold in the skills menu!*
In this roguelike we follow the story of Taylor, a farmer boy in a steampunk world.
When tragedy struck in his town he had to take matters into his own hands, but not without the help of Nyx, a priestess of Nelumbo.

Game Off Game Jam:
This game was made in November of 2022 for the game jam "Game Off".
The theme of the game jam was "cliché", and we applied it to the storytelling aspect, taking advantage of as many overused literary ideas as possible, starting with the name of the game itself (it follows the trendy name format "A __ of __ and __", popularized by G.R.R Martin).
