About Ancient Abyss

Ancient Abyss is a 2D Zelda-like action game where you will explore mysterious and hidden events in a randomly generated maze. As you progress, you’ll gain more power and collect items to help you reach further into the maze. As you walk through the layers of the maze and reach the bottom of the abyss, you’ll discover mysterious and dark forces, tucked away, so no one would find them...

Ancient Abyss features the thrilling battle and perma-death mechanics of the Roguelike genre, as well as the exploration and discovery of 2D Zelda games.

Features:


• RogueZelda: An action game that combines RogueLike and 2D Zelda elements, allowing players to experience exploration and discovery in a randomly generated maze. The game combines the depth of a RogueLike game with a thrilling perma-death experience.
• Explore: The game is full of unreachable and hidden areas, but players have the opportunity to master new skills and acquire new items at any time in the game. These new abilities will help players explore further to discover treasures and secrets hidden within the maze.
• Stimulating Combat: A wide selection of melee and ranged weaponry allow for multiple styles of play and create a unique combat experience.
• 2D world with dynamic lighting: Beautiful pixel art, intuitive and smooth animation and excellent dynamic lighting effects create a wonderful visual experience.

There was great potential here, sadly, it's abandoned. Don't bother buying this unless you don't mind getting an unfinished product, the last Official patch was in 2022.

Being able to dash a cross gaps should be it's own ability, not locked behind one single weapon. i could not progress in the game because I didn't have the right weapon.

** DO NOT BUY **I havent even played the game but i jsut wanted to warn anybody that missed it. Last update was 3 years ago. Really getting tired of all these devs who take the money and run its way past silly and just plain sad. I understand its a lot to balance but come on man they could do something and at least TRY. Sad.
