Ouroboros

GIVE US FEEDBACK ON OUR LUDUM DARE PAGE!

Ouroboros is a tough-as-nails roguelike game, made for Ludum Dare 47.

You are inside of Ouroboros, the serpent of infinity. Cycles of life and death run much quicker here. However, you have a way to cheat the system.

You play as your enemy. Use your hook to latch onto and control the bodies of other creatures, to escape the natural decay imposed upon your current host. Make sure to get out of each chamber fast- or you won't live to see the next loop.

HOW TO PLAY

Your host vessel is constantly decaying.

Use your hook to destroy creatures, as well as possess them. Possession does not stop decay, but it can buy you some time and extra hitpoints.

The hobbler may look silly, but it is a formidable entity. Its jump is powerful, and lands with real force. This vessel holds much power in terms of manouverability

The drip-feeder has found the ability to fill itself with gas, becoming lighter than air. As a result, its skin is thin and somewhat weak.

Destroy every creature in the room except yourself to progress to the next.
