Venatu
Venatu: A Dungeon Crawler of Rivalry and Survival
Descend into the depths of the dungeon; an ancient site filled with hordes of monsters, competing with your companions for your cause, whether it be money or honor.
Choose from one of four unique characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, and journey through an ever changing dungeon.
Upon entering, you agree you are never to leave, fighting inside the dungeon until you die. Until then, earn money and glory for every monster killed, whether it be for sick family members or to go down in history.
While Venatu is undoubtedly a strategy roguelike game, it has extensive survival mechanics. Kill monsters for food, fish, forage, and craft gear. Though, no one person can survive on their own, requiring you to befriend your rivals to keep each other alive as long as possible.
(!) IMPORTANT
This game was designed in a game jam, and was rather ambitious for the time frame. Because of this, there is a bug worth noting.
When the game is starting, be sure to have the tab in focus, as not doing this will break the lobby and require a reset.

Damn, the music is simple, but it slaps! Reminds me of something, but I can't quite put my finger on it...
(hiya!) I did the song that plays during gameplay, and it was heavily inspired by this youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@user-rx2ov9kt3y
maybe that's what it sounds like?
Indeed it is!
