Magicite the very colourful RPG platformer that comes with permanent death as standard is now released in full on Linux, but it's still getting big updates too.
I've personally play tested it a bit and so far as I can see it works really great on Linux and it is pretty hard. It's much better with more than one person.
There is another update planned soon too (if it hasn't hit already!) that adds unlockable companions.
About
Explore, craft, and survive in this Multiplayer RPG Platformer with permanent death! Featuring many Rogue-like elements, Magicite randomly generates each underground dungeon for you and your friends to delve deep into. Chop trees, mine ores, and hunt beasts in order to collect the resources and materials you need to survive the harsh and unforgiving environment. With a ton of character traits, stats, companions, and classes, players will have a different experience each play through! Be prepared to die... A LOT.
Magicite's main influences were mainly Monster Hunter and Spelunky. I loved the resource collection and crafting in Monster Hunter, and of course fighting giant monsters with my friends. Spelunky's brutal yet rewarding platforming was also something that I wanted to capture with Magicite.
Features currently implemented:
-Randomly Generated Dungeons - Experience a new dungeon each time you play. Expect tons of trees to chop, ores to mine, plants to harvest, and bugs to catch! Oh and giant monsters.
-Permanent Death - The game logs all of your stats in a play through, leading the way for achievements and upgrades.
-Crafting System - Combine any two items to create a new one! For example, Wood + Wood = Plank. There are tons of combinations to discover!
-Combat System - If you plan on just running in and swinging you sword, you're gonna get wrecked. Take time to craft useful items and examine enemy positioning before executing a well timed attack.
-Multiplayer - Want to put your friendships to the test? This is the game to do it! Permanent death only occurs when the ENTIRE party has fallen. So if your buddy gets knocked out feel free to run over and help him back up. Or not...
Upcoming/Planned Features:
-More Biomes
-Unlockable Races & Companions
-Bestiary
-Achievements
-Card Collecting
-More Items and Gear!
-More Enemies!
Check it out on Steam.
