About RAD: Repeat After Death
Repeat After Death is an action roguelite platforming game where your actions become your own enemy. Make your way through the various dungeons and kill the monster with your attacks. Repeat this over and over again until you clear the dungeon. Simple enough, right? But beware, as your actions from every character before will haunt you and be repeated back in your next. Dodge your way through the many ghosts of your own movement to kill the guardian and get out of this looping purgatory.
Mirror of PersonalitiesChoose at least 2 of your favorite characters each run to cycle between to clear the dungeon with. The Mirror will pick one at random which you have to use to clear the iteration. Will you combine the speed of the rogue, the imaginative power of the wizard, and the entertaining mind of the jester in one team? Or do you dare challenge yourself by taking on all your different personalities at once?
Journey through Biomes
Fight your way through three different biomes, each with their own features and mechanics. The forest has helpful mushrooms and vines to get you to higher places, clouds can move and disappear, while the volcano has lots of dangerous lava you must avoid.
Items and Artifacts
Get different items throughout each run to help you get past the dangers of the dungeon. Gather souls to buy different upgrades and artifacts that provide a helpful buff before heading into the dungeon. Make each run stronger than the last to eventually defeat the last area of the dungeon.
Discover Yourself
Where are you? Who are you? How did you end up in this place? Talk to the different characters around the dungeon to figure out why you were brought here and how to escape this never-ending cycle. Discover something buried deep down in your past, and when the time comes, you must choose to either fight until the bitter end or accept who you truly are.Features

How to play this game : -> open the game -> play the game -> dead again and again in the game -> get stressed -> quit the game -> go to sleep -> wake up -> open the game again and continue to play -> repeat the process I think this why the game named repeat after death5 found this helpful
I've only begun to start playing this game but I've been having a lot of fun with it! As someone who doens't play games of these genre's regularly, the feedback and progression keeps me engaged with the game and honestly this is surprisingly fun even tho I keep dying lol It's not my main cup of tea, but when I want a challenge of this sort I can see myself coming back to play this game. It's one for my indie books for sure. <31 found this helpful
A fun roguelike puzzle game where you avoid getting shot by your own past self! The story is hella interesting, where you will uncover small tidbits of yourself and the "personas" you collected throughout. The cast is also charmingly interesting with delightful design. Gameplay-wise, it can be easy to get into and very hard to master as you juggle between knowing your "persona" quirks, the items/boost you get on each run, as well as enemy placements and the platformer section itself. It can be very frustrated, as I ended up being (I don't really play these type of games) but it does reward you greatly once you figure out the whole gameplay. If you get tired of being beaten up by the main dungeon, there is also a "Trial and Game modes" where you go through specific scenario to get more "souls" and "gems" as well as some random item to help you run through the main dungeon. Do recommend doing that if you get stuck. This also applies if you're very competitive as the Trials have its own active leaderboard. Do recommend just for the whole gimmick of "avoiding and remembering your past movement". Quite excited to see where this leads to.1 found this helpful
Great game, I played it during my past time. Wanted to unwind, but instead I ended up worked up, hating myself and questioning my decisions. 5 stars!
Stressfull yet fun at the same time, Like we know we need to move but the brain is still processing the echo movement! Unique gameplay and satisfying elements of story, narrative, and also will bring a new style within 2d platformer games. I hope there will be another game mode like multiplayer/coop campaign /split screen/ dual controller gameplay for next patch. IT WILL BE A CHAOTIC FUN! kudos and cheers for the team.
Thank the devs for adding more challenge and skill to this VERY unique game! I highly recommend it if you prefer a new taste in a dungeon platform genre!~
