Roguelegends: Dark Realms (or simply RLDR) is an in-development roguelike/lite horror game influenced by the works of channel mascot H.P. Lovecraft. It has the players diving into a dark fantasy setting where, to put it bluntly, stuff be bad. You can also play as a goblin. That's pretty sweet.
The game utilises retro graphics and classic RPG mechanics in a way that invokes older games while also being wholly unique. Pretty impressive for a single-person indie development team! Shoutout to Untrustedlife for managing that.
