After years of diligent work, the young mage finally saved up enough to build a beautiful cottage in the woods—only to find it sits right at the convergence point between the Shadow Plane and the Material Plane. Every time night falls, entropic shadow creatures pour forth from the rift, laying waste to everything nearby. 200 sealing artifacts, 40 events, 15 difficulty tiers, and 7 wildly distinct bosses await you! Take up your arcane rifle! Squeeze the trigger and rain down fury on these ill-mannered pests! Mix and match to craft devastating high-damage trajectories. Some buffs rely on proper positioning, so think carefully before you pull the trigger. Don't forget to forge new bullets! Click the winged hammer in the bottom-left corner to craft new ammunition with varied attributes — choose from 240 unique bullet types! When the smoke clears, the roguelike spirit remains. At the end of each run, select the optimal build buffs based on your current setup.
