Slashy Knight is back, and everything has changed! The King lost his Disco Crown at Party Kingdom. Sounds simple. It is not. Between you and that crown: 100+ handcrafted levels, 10+ cursed biomes, rude goblins, angry wildlife, suspicious penguins, and knights who never made it back. • One-finger controls: tap to turn, slash, and grab powers • 100+ hand-designed levels • 10+ biomes with unique enemies, traps, and bosses • Dozens of knights with unique powers and upgrade paths • Pick 1 of 3 perks every level and build wild combos • Upgrade heroes, stats, and abilities between runs • 3 launch modes: Campaign, Dungeon Run, Cursed Mode • Permanent meta progression • Seasonal events, rotating challenges, and post-launch content TAP One finger. Tap to turn, slash, and grab powers. The controls disappear in seconds. The builds you make with them don't. SLASH Forests, frozen castles, pyramids, abandoned mineshafts, and worse. Every biome changes the enemies, the traps, and the boss waiting at the end. STACK Level up mid-run and choose 1 of 3 perks. Stack them strategically and turn your knight into something the dungeons weren't ready for. CHOOSE YOUR KNIGHT A panda lawyer. A wizard named Mumbo. Dozens of knights with different playstyles and suspicious reasons for answering the King's call. SURVIVE Campaign reveals the truth. Dungeon Run is pure roguelike chaos. Cursed Mode is for players who want pain. GROW Spend loot between runs. Unlock new abilities. Your knight gets permanently stronger. KEEP GOING New heroes, biomes, modes, and live events keep the game evolving. The King sent you for a crown. The crown is real. Everything else might be a lie.

Loneliness is the only feeling you may ever know? You wake up, alone, on a planet that appears to be Mars. There is not much else I can tell you. The rest is up to you. In this first person solo game there are clues all around you but the only thing I can tell you is its time to start moving. While you still can. Finding your way home seems like the best option. What? You need something more than that? Mars 2055 is a first person solo adventure where you, as the player, find yourself in an unknown location, for unknown reasons, alone. In this sandbox you need to: • first and foremost: survive • search for clues left behind by other intelligence: human or artificial • use those clues to make good choices • use those clues to repair broken items • use those clues to restore damaged systems • use those clues to access secure areas • use those clues to MacGyver seemingly unrelated items into usable modules • be careful to not destroy the entire base with a single miscalculation When you have, and only when you have finally pieced together the entire puzzle, there will be an opportunity for you to escape, with nothing more than the suit on your back. Where does the adventure come from? Why it comes from the stories you tell yourself, alone, inside your head.
