Hey fellow gamers and developers!
I'm on a journey, creating my third game, titled Reborn, and I'm searching for playtesters to dive into its early stages, provide valuable feedback, and help shape its future. There's still much that I'm working on, but the core gameplay loop of leveling up and progressing further is completed - just in need of balance adjustments based on your feedback.
Reborn is an Idle Roguelike RPG. Here's what you can expect:
Idle Gameplay: Perfect for multitaskers, Reborn plays on its own in the background. Focus on resource allocation, quest planning, and unraveling the mysteries of a quaint village without constant monitoring.
Roguelike Challenges: Embrace death as a part of your journey. Each demise strips you of your base inventory but not your experience, allowing you to grow stronger and delve deeper into the cave. You can store your inventory outside of the caves, so only take with you what you're willing to lose.
RPG Elements: Boost your stats with experience points earned. Early levels come cheap, but expect a steep climb as you progress. Craft gear, brew potions, and recruit companions to ease your grind.

Core Mechanics:
Mouse & (Limited) Keyboard Support: While a desktop game, I wanted to challenge myself to make a game that could be played with only mouse clicks. There is still WASD/arrow movement for those that prefer it, but navigating and interacting can all be done with the click of a mouse.
Strategic Combat and Exploration: Engage in battles and find your way through a maze-like cave system. Victory brings you closer to the next challenge.
Progressive Gameplay: Utilize the Auto Battler for cleared floors, focusing your attention on new, uncharted levels when the time comes. Spend experience points in the Barracks to level up and become more formidable.
Upcoming Features:
Vibrant NPCs and Village Life: Interact with unique characters and upgrade your home. I have 19 NPCs in the village, all with intertwining relationships and dramas. Get to know them through what will be up to 100+ different dialogue options as you slowly unravel the mysteries of Reborn.
Quests and Potions: Embark on quests to earn some coin, and brew powerful potions using ingredients from your adventures.
Farming and Companions: Grow your own resources for more powerful brewing, and recruit creatures to aid in your quest in unique ways.
