Ampersat Global

Ampersat is a shooty, slashy, RPG-y game mixing old-school/retro and modern sensibilities. A blend of influences from Gauntlet and Smash TV to Zelda and a dash of Angband, this is a handcrafted adventure with much appeal to fans of Roguelites. A labor of love from a solo developer, Ampersat distills some favorite childhood gaming experiences into a fresh, fun hybrid that sees you killing a lot of monsters, finding a lot of loot, freeing captured letters (um, what?) and growing from a world-weary warrior mage into a powerful smashing/blasting machine! Features: More than 50 handcrafted levels, many with exploration and light puzzles. Optional endless procedural area. Original gameplay elements based around freeing and capturing letters. Flexible character progression with extensive skill tree. Hundreds of unique pieces of loot find, buy, sell and augment. Upgradeable town hub. Tackle stages in the order you choose. 50 unique creature types with individual AI, 10 fiendish bosses. Drop-in local async co-op (and online using Steam Remote Play Together) - suitable for young players to team up with their parents.
