About the Game

THE GAME IS (NOT) OVER! 

GAME (not) OVER is a small survivors-like with deck-building elements, blending both genres to offer a fresh game.

Lost in the world of video games, use your cards to summon hero allies, and defend yourself from the hordes of villains who want to claim their revenge on you!

NON-STOP SURVIVORS ACTION! 

Your character is no hero… but their video game allies are!

Position cleverly your allies around you and watch them blast away the hordes of incoming enemies.

In classic "bullet-heaven" fashion, you’ll face hordes of increasingly strong enemies. But your allies will get stronger too!

CHOOSE YOUR CARDS, THEN SUMMON AND LEVEL UP YOUR ALLIES! 

GAME (not) OVER is also a deck-building game! Each turn, lasting about 30 seconds, you draw five cards, and you’ll need to use wisely the energy you have to summon allies to protect you! Including…

  • The peasant, defending himself with his pitchfork!

  • The wizard, commanding thunder!

  • The witch, throwing powerful fireballs!

  •  The ninja, attacking enemies with his shuriken!

  • The cyborg, slashing with their energy swords!

  • The fury, summoning powerful tornadoes!

  • The space admiral, summoning beams from above!

  • The knight, blasting enemies away with his sword of light!

  • The ice queen, freezing enemies in their tracks!

  • And more!

But remember, your enemies can kill your allies too… and if they do, you’ll lose their firepower!

AN EXCITING BLEND OF GENRES! 

Defeat your enemies to gain experience, and use that experience to pick up new cards that will allow you to summon new allies when you play them!

Play these cards again with your allies in the field to level them up, making them more powerful!

Take your time strategizing, choose which allies will protect you the best… Then blast away your enemies with their powerful abilities!

A run in this rogue-like lasts about 20 minutes. Will you survive, in the world of video games?

CATCHY TUNES!
