About the Game

Path to Magehood

This is a passion project made just on my own. It is a bullet heaven that starts of slow, gaining traction quickly through upgrades and rogue-lite elements.
In this game, you play as an apprentice mage determined to develope their prowess by summoning and overcoming an ancient monster. All of this, as hordes of smaller enemies relentlessly spawn, attempting to thwart your progress and prevent the accomplishment of your magical feat.
On your journey, you'll have access to over 40 in-game upgrades along with additional base-stat upgrades in the main menu. By strategically combining these upgrades, you'll uncover either formidable synergies or occasionally underwhelming combinations. Your selection of in-game upgrades will influence the probability of encountering powerful subsequent upgrades.

As a skilled wizard, you must demonstrate not only your magical prowess but also your wisdom and endurance in navigating the challenges that await you in my game!
Good luck Mages!
