A SUPER-ROGUELIKE
Taori is an indie cross-platform co-op super-roguelike about fighting super-big bosses on super-massive maps. Stack endless augments, customize a new build every run, and use wildly different playstyles.
RIP POWER FROM WHAT YOU KILL
Your build is made from specs: weapons, spells, enemy attacks, and unstable abilities ripped from the things you kill. Choose any four, even duplicates, and create a loadout that changes how every run is played.
THE ENEMIES EVOLVE TOO
Every enemy has something wrong. They use genetic algorithms, social behavior, formations, traps, and anything else they can find to end you. Your kills turn into loot as you fight through every stage (or loop endlessly), while difficulty scales with what you kill, not how long you take. After every stage, enemies gain random permanent augments from the same pool you use, and you better watch out for infernal enemies.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Taori is a solo-developed indie game made by a former Terraria modder, with music from a composer known for work on the Terraria Calamity Mod. Taori is built around the following promises:
No in-app purchases or microtransactions, ever.
Free updates forever.
First-class modding support.
Human-made art and visual assets.
An optimized, well-running, fun game.
