A top-down post-apocalyptic ARPG inspired by Path of Exile. Fast, mouse-driven combat with intentionally minimal 2D graphics.

Set in 2300, after a rogue AI collective shattered humanity's golden utopia. Navigate desolate ruins, fight automated constructs, and uncover the mysteries of the "Great Silence."

Profit Paste Tree

Harvest Profit Paste from elite enemies to unlock upgrades in your class's paste tree (press P).

Stalker

• Empowered Cleave — cleave deals 40% more damage
• Reality Cleaver — every 5th cleave tears a rift, dealing 300% damage in a 10-tile cone and leaving a void that slows enemies 70% for 3 seconds
• Void Embrace — become smoke when death whispers
• Entropic Decay — enemies crumble in your shadow
• Paradox Armor — cheat death by 5 seconds

Technomancer

• Ghost Arc — lightning ignores walls (and mercy)
• Singularity Arc — arc chains infinitely, growing 20% stronger with each jump
• Overload Nova — double detonation plus a cryo minefield
• Quantum Entanglement — 15% chance to spell echo

Hordemonger

• Webweaver's Wrath — spiders leave lingering webs that slow and entangle
• Necrotic Plague — your minions spread terminal debt
• Skeleton Overlord — every 10th skeleton is an Overlord with 500% health and 200% damage
• Singularity Core — all damage has a 5% chance to collapse enemies into a micro-singularity

Quests

Players fight the Profit Engine, an AI system that harvests humans for Profit Paste and enforces debt slavery through its Tithing Choir. Starting with rescuing a prisoner from processing, quests escalate to hacking corporate grids, raiding caravans, and stealing incriminating ledgers. Sequential, objective-driven missions build toward rebellion against the machine.

Features

• Real-time combat against AI constructs and corrupted beings
• Status effects: burning, chill, freeze, shock, poison, bleed
• Procedurally generated maps (or hand-drawn with the dungeon generator GUI)
• Environmental storytelling with NPCs like Silas, Bob, Alice, and Charlie
• Stripped-down visuals for performance and clarity

Install

pip install pygame noise==1.2.2

noise has no prebuilt wheels, so pip compiles it from source. On Windows that requires the Microsoft C++ Build Tools; on Linux/macOS a C compiler and Python headers (python3-dev).

If you'd rather skip the compiler, just install pygame — the game falls back to a pure-Python noise implementation. Map generation is slower and produces different layouts for the same seed.

Run

python main.py
