About the Game



The Feathered Serpent is a roguelike action platformer that pairs fast-paced combat with randomly generated levels, enemies, and items!

WAR AGAINST THE DINOSAURS

Battle against a race of dinosaur-people known as the Saurians. Exact revenge upon them for sacrificing your people to Quetzalcoatl, The Feathered Serpent. Just beware the raptors... clever girls.

UNLIMITED ITEM SYNERGIES

Well, to be more precise, there are exactly 1,087,562,120,541,668,200,000,000,000,000 potential item combinations to enjoy. As you progress through this lost world, random item drops will change the way your character moves and attacks. Experiment to find the best item combinations in each attempt to slay The Feathered Serpent.

BECOME FRIENDS WITH CATS, BIRDS, AND SHARKS

Experience hundreds of unique story events that are interconnected between the many NPC's you will run into during your adventures. Anyone who isn't a dinosaur is a welcome ally... except for that rogue dinosaur shopkeeper Brazak, I guess he seems pretty cool.

ENDLESS REPLAYABILITY

Each new attempt will have you encountering new enemies, dinosaurs, and bosses. Watch how bosses progressively become harder each time you defeat them. Experience how the game grows with you and changes as a result of your actions.
