ALPHA
Rogue Tap is currently in an alpha stage. All features are under active development.
Rogue Tap is an 2D ARPG in a roguelike package. The player crawls through procedurally generated dungeons in the recognizable roguelike mechanic. However, battles require real-time player action to survive.
Classes
You can tackle Rogue Tap as the Fanatic, the Aged, or the Gambler. Each character has unique start conditions and abilities.
Class Select Menu You can select your starting class. However, future party members may be any class.
Find Others on the Way
It is possible to find other party members inside the dungeon. These party members can by any of the available classes. Selecting your starting class only determines that of your initial party member.
Active Encounters
Enemy encounters appear as a single unit on the dungeon map. Once the enemy detects the player, they will give chase. If the player collides with the enemy, an active encounter begins.
Active Encounter A Fanatic is near death while fighting off a myriad of dungeon enemies.
No Turns Here
Enemy encounters happen in a real-time battle mode. The player can move around the battlefield and get the best position to use their skills.
Players can dodge enemy attacks, if they are fast enough.
Skills
Each class has a unique set of skills. Each character can have two skill equipped. Only equipped skills are available during enemy encounters.
Once unlocked, skills are not restricted by class. A Gambler can use skills made available by a Fanatic. However, the Gambler will not be as effective using those skills because his primary statistic is different.
Skill Unlock Menu Skills become available based on the classes of the party members, their level, and the amount of gold the party has.
Fanatic's Skills
Melee Attack
An immediate, physical attack. This attack damages all enemies in the hit area.
Brace
Significantly increases the defense of the entire party for a limited time. Use this ability before large attacks, or a series of rapid attacks from the enemy.
Charge
Recklessly charges an enemy and performs a devastating attack. All enemies in your path take damage. Once complete, the Fanatic runs back to their start position.
Revenge
The Fanatic focuses his rage. While the Revenge skill is active, the Fanatic will immediately counterattack any time he takes damage. This skill is very powerful when receiving a series or weaker attacks.
Martyr
A Fanatic does not shy away from suffering. While the Martyr skill is active, any damage the Fanatic takes is converted into healing for the party. The amount healed is based on the amount of damage and the skill of the Fanatic.
Equalize
Before the eyes of the Fanatic's god, all are equal. When activated, the Equalize skill reduces the health of all enemies to that of the weakest enemy. This skill is especially powerful after an enemy has been damaged.
Aged's Skills
TBD
Gambler's Skills
TBD
Dungeons
Dungeons are procedurally generated. Each floor builds up to a boss encounter.
First Dungeon Floor Every dungeon floor will be a unique challenge.
How deep can you survive?
Each floor builds up to a boss encounter. The boss' power increases over time. Defeating the boss' minions reduces his power. Once you encounter the boss, he will be much tougher if his power is not kept in check.
