## What is 10 Minutes Till the Demon Lord?

The Demon Lord arrives in 10 minutes. Survive until then.

A top-down bullet heaven survival action RPG where you mow down endless hordes of monsters with automatic attacks. The only control is movement. A 16-bit style pixel art roguelite you can finish in a 10-minute break.

FEATURES

1. Move only - attacks are automatic
Drag to move your hero. The sword swings itself, the magic fires itself. A one-handed portrait-mode action game.

2. A two-hero party: the swordsman and the moon witch
Your hero fights alongside Mira, the moon witch, who battles on her own. Close-range sweeps and long-range bolts - face the horde together, JRPG-party style.

3. Choose your build on every level up
Collect experience crystals to level up, then pick one of two upgrades: widen your slash arc or extend your reach. Your choices shape your run.

4. Waves that grow every 30 seconds
Bats, zombies, skeletons, werewolves, mummies... enemies get stronger and more numerous over time. An elite appears every third wave - and after 10 minutes, the Demon Lord himself.

5. Authentic 16-bit pixel art
A dark forest drawn in detailed retro pixel art. Every character walks, slashes and flaps in hand-crafted sprite animation.

6. One run = 10 minutes
Perfect for commutes and breaks. Die, retry, instantly.

WHO IT'S FOR
- Fans of survivor-like / bullet heaven games
- Players who love retro pixel RPGs and classic JRPG vibes
- Anyone who wants arcade action without complex controls
- People looking for a quick 10-minute session game

The Demon Lord is coming. Can you survive?
