Loot River, the Tetris-inspired dungeon crawler, now available in demo
Loot . River There’s an immediate catch: its dungeon floors can be teleported around like Tetris blocks. So as you venture through procedural levels slashing ink-colored monsters, you’re also solving shape-shifting puzzles and using their movements to confuse and avoid enemies. .
Now it has a demo on Steam.
You can apparently use the slides to find new routes forward, kite enemies around, or trap them on impenetrable platforms and to dodge their attacks. I’m curious if it’s powerful enough to last a full game, but that’s what the demo should help answer.
The demo has instructions and two short levels. While, as noted, dungeons are typically procedurally generated, the demo is locked to a single seed so the levels are the same at all times. That’s probably a good idea if you’re a developer and want people to buy your entire game rather than just playing the demo forever.
Loot River is launching next year, and the demo appears to be available indefinitely. A rare treatment. Get it from Steam page now.
