About the game
Roguelike
Ampguard is a roguelike in which you must start over from the beginning of every round. The only thing you'll carry over to the next round is your understanding of the abilities and foes.
Combat & Upgrades
The combat is designed to be fast paste and furious, with a lot of enjoyment provided by the perfect mix of upgrades. Players have five skills at their disposal. Each of those skills can be infused with one amplifier that points to one of the other four skills.
The power of the upgrades will be increased each time the player channels one of the highlighted skills. The chain will be broken if a skill that is not pointed to is activated.
Your aim is to complete each stage and destroy the huge yokai that awaits at the end.
Do this three times in a row to end the game and register your own time in the game's records.
Production
Ampguard was developed for the beta Mittweida over the course of a year.
This is an annual event at the University of applied science Mittweida.
During the beta 2021, I had the opportunity to volunteer as a trainee and have a better understanding of what the coming year may hold for me. I worked in the technical department, mostly on abilities, editor tools, and asset implementation. In the end, I was given a chance to create my own visual effects and implement sound effects into the game.
