About the Game

The Universe was bored with spheres, sooo last terayear of a shape, but of course, rings are IN! It plotted and schemed for six rings to form the stunning Chaine.

Up With Doznik is a first-person action-adventure roguelite with shapeshifting at its core. 

After a rather hard fall, you find yourself thrown into an unfamiliar ring. The dwarf, Doznik, helps you get on your feet and hit the road to the castle that houses the Portwork: your only chance of getting back to wherever you came from.

Arm yourself with whatever scraps of weaponry you can find and brew the most vile potions the rings of the Chaine have ever seen. Experiment with different builds and upgrade your arsenal with every run.

At its heart, Up With Doznik is an absurd tale of purpose, identity, and individuality.

FIGHT SHAPESHIFTING MONSTERS

Relentless hordes of shapeshifters await at every turn, each a shifting puzzle that responds to your actions and inaction.

DEAL WITH DEATH

The Auditors split Deaths across the Chaine, and it just so happens the Green Death's actually pretty chill, got a side gig too. When you're not busy dying, he's out there trading souvenirs for useful items guaranteed to make your next inevitable demise just a little bit more, well, survivable.

It’s all part of the service, you're his #1 customer, after all.

REGAIN YOUR MEMORY

Countless headfirst plunges can have an unhealthy impact on memory; side effects may include forgetting your own name. Fear not, as you'll remember bits and pieces throughout the journey.
