Pack-in Game of the Month: Roguelight

tacknch

This mon­th’s pack-in game is an ab­solute­ly charm­ing lit­tle plat­former by Daniel Linssen (AKA Managore). Roguelight is a free (or pay your own price) game plat­former whose gim­mick is that you use your lim­it­ed num­ber of fire ar­rows to light your way as you trav­el down into an in­creas­ing­ly more dark dun­geon. You also col­lect coins to be able to get up­grades to your char­ac­ter, which then gives you the abil­i­ty to go yet deep­er in the the abyss. The style of Roguelight is very rem­i­nis­cent of orig­i­nal Gameboy games, which just tick­les me.

If you even re­mote­ly en­joy plat­form­ers, then this is a great free to play ti­tle to whit­tle away the time. Honorable men­tion goes to an­oth­er one of his ti­tles, Windowframe, which has you re­siz­ing the play­field as a me­chan­ic to help you tra­verse stages.
