About the Game

DEV NOTE: I LVOE THIS GAME A LOT BUT WILL LIKELY NEVER FINISH IT. HEXDECK IS A SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR AND YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT INSTEAD.

Face the Pillar's Trials

Rogue Tears is a fast paced action roguelite with a huge amount of weapon customization. Prove yourself and defeat the trials of the pillar, or die trying...

Items and Synergies

Combine mods with your weapons to create your own devastating attacks. Find your own synergies to build your dream weapon, millions of possibilities are waiting to be tested. The unique customization system allows for player expression and promote thought and creativity with no clear correct choices. Random mods drop throughout as you go, and are lost upon death, giving each run a fresh feel and totally new options.

Chose your Hero

Pick from a roster of characters, each with their own specific strengths and weaknesses, as well as widely different movement abilities.

The Knight is resilient and powerful at close range, his leap lets him reach the peaks of even the tallest mountains.

The Rogue is strong with all weapons, but more frail than the knight. Her smoke bomb lets her get out of a pinch or quickly reach her target.

(IN PROGRESS) The Sorcerer is more powerful when left alone, but weak when surrounded. His levitation lets him move around quickly to set up his next attack.

Deadly Enemies

Each zone features its own set of unique enemies. They grow more and more aggressive and deadly as they go, and will not hesitate to gang up on you if given the chance. Disposing of them is no easy task...

Fierce Boss Fights

Each zone is guarded by a unique and powerful boss, each of which will require strategy and skill to defeat. Make sure to save up some life before the fights begin unless you want to reach an early demise.
