Reaper's Ace
SteamHere is whats allowed: EVERYTHING! From in the nuts to honourable to backstabbing!

Greetings, unfortunate souls! It's me, Death, your friendly neighborhood Reaper, and I'm thrilled to announce my latest... hobby.
You see, the afterlife can get a bit repetitive, so I've spiced things up with a brand-new game: Reaper's Ace!
Think you’ve got what it takes to earn your place in Heaven, Hell, or the countless realms in between?
Well, you don’t have much of a choice, do you? 😈

it's a top-down roguelike where every move you make could be your last (again). Each run is a rollercoaster ride through semi-procedural levels and a small and cute open word where the only thing standing between you and eternal glory (or doom) is your deck of cards.

Join the ultimate underworld tournament in this top-down roguelike where the rules—and your luck—are always changing. Here’s what awaits you in the afterlife:
🎲 Puzzling Thrills: We are not just about dispatching competition here... we also have a vast number of puzzles to test your brains!

🃏 Deck of Destiny: Draw 4 random cards before each battle. Your spells are as unpredictable as your fate—every encounter is a gamble!
👹 Boss Battles: Face off against unique bosses where your deck could make or break you. Will you conquer or be conquered?
⚔️ Weapons Galore: Arm yourself with a variety of weapons to slay your foes... or die trying.

😈 Death’s Dynamic Dungeon: Death’s still designing, so expect surprises! Rules and challenges might shift as you delve deeper.
💀 Lighthearted Chaos: It’s all in good fun—or at least, Death thinks so. Dark humor and unexpected twists keep the afterlife... entertaining.
So, ready or not, step into the arena, wield your weapons, draw your cards, and impress me! After all, a bit of entertainment is the least you can do for your old pal Death, right?
