Cursed Ruins Roguelike
A roguelike prototype made for the 7 day roguelike challenge!
Game made by Francis Coulombe with music by Eric Shumaker.
Move with the numpad, arrow keys or QWEASDZXC. Spacebar to get items or move down stairs. F2 brings up the inventory.
I've tried many roguelike-ish projects, but this is my first time trying to make a very standard classic style one! A lot of features are missing or not working properly, but I learned a lot doing this, and I might add to it in the future.
I streamed most of the process of making this, you can watch the vods here: 7 day roguelike 2026 - YouTube
The embedded version above has some post-jam updates like bug fixes and speed improvements. To see the state of the game at the end of the 7 day game jam, for judging etc, get the Jam Build downloadable instead.

i like this game
Is there any way to make it full screen? Between my screen size and my eyes I can't read what's going on very well.
Yeah, I feel like the browser version definitely needs it.
the downloadable version can be made full screen, but couldnt make it work for the browser one yet. Ill work on that soon.
Great job! The visuals felt very classic roguelike. (Well, I suppose not as classic as ASCII, but reminiscent of DCSS). I do wish the controls were slightly more responsive.
