About the Game

Die. Learn. Die better.

A fast-paced 2D survivor roguelite starring peculiar streamers. Fight through hordes of everything content creators hate, build degenerate combos, and die anyway. Short runs and offline-first permanent progression.

Jump and stomp your enemies

A degenerate arsenal

  • 16+ Weapons with rarity tiers: from the "Admin's Torch" to the "Void Crows".
  • 30+ Runes for broken builds: including Toxic Chat, Hype Cannon, and Ban Hammer.
  • Peculiar Streamers: unlock characters with their own scaling rules and signature weapons.

The Atlas: Greed vs. Difficulty

Unlock passives in a massive tree to break your future runs. But beware: every point spent automatically raises the overall difficulty. Pick your poison.

Boss Encounters

Telegraphed mechanics and real patterns. It's not just about health bars; it's about skill and movement.

About Toloko Games
