Roguelike Elements
Lots of procgen; the map, objective, encounter rewards, and all crafting recipes are procgen. Strategies should thus vary significantly from run-to-run. Permadeath also comes standard due to the lack of save system, though runs are pretty short in terms of time.

Screenshots

Yes

Really Neat.

I had fun with this, and beating it was satisfying. The writing was fun but the encounters start to feel a bit samey after a while as you encounter repeated scenarios. Implementing a go-to node on click (if the path is free) would be a great UX improvement.

Are you planning to make a mac or web export as well? The premise seems fun and I would love to play but I currently only have my mac laptop and I'm unable too.

Developer

There are no current plans for additional versions.  I'd have actively preferred to do a web build, but unfortunately I discovered during this project that Godot 4 doesn't (yet?) support web export for C# projects.  As a Unity refugee experimenting with Godot for the first time during this jam, C# is what I use.

Okay, that's sad to hear, hope they fix it in near future
