About SLYTHE

SLYTHE is an arcade shooter roguelite where you steer an ever-moving snake of heroes — each with their own attacks, passives, and classes. Inspired by auto-battlers: stack heroes of the same class for powerful class bonuses, buy copies to level them up, and build a snake that clears the arena on its own — if you steer it right. Between arenas you play the economy: hire from the shop, bank gold for interest, ban the heroes you never want offered again, and shape a build from 80+ passive items with run-warping effects. Every sixth arena throws an elite at you; arena 25 holds the final boss. Beating it is where SLYTHE starts, not where it ends.

Gameplay

•
Your snake never stops moving — steer it with keyboard, mouse-follow, or gamepad (two stick modes)
•
Your heroes attack automatically when enemies are near
•
Combine heroes of the same class to unlock unique class bonuses
•
Clearing arenas grants gold — spend it, or bank it and earn interest
•
Buying copies of the same hero levels them up; at Lv.3 they unlock special effects
•
Ban heroes from the shop to sharpen your odds — build control is the real weapon

Loop past arena 25 with a run-defining relic each time around
