Relic Abyss is the next big feature-heavy roguelite survivor RPG

Another contestant enters the survivor-like battle ring with Relic Abyss, and this one is absolutely packed full of features that will probably end up sucking my life away. The style of it is kind of adorable too.

The story: "One day a giant sinkhole has appeared slowly devouring the world. Many refer to it as the Abyss. In it's wake, insurmountable amounts of unknown creatures were released and have wreck havoc upon the land. The world became engulfed with death, and the creatures reigned supreme.

This is when Goddess of Creation called upon the remaining brave adventurers of the realm to take arms, and fight against the denizens of the Abyss. Tasked with destroying the Primal Entity, will they be able to save the world?"

Ready to see just how many features it has? There's lots:

• 20 Playable adventurers.
• Play 5 base class characters that branches to 3 advanced classes based on specialization: Might, Magic, and Science.
• Over 134+ Unique Character Skills including Ultimate Skills.
• 6 Unique Layers of the Abyss to explore that have incremental difficulty settings.
• Fight 6 Level Bosses, 18 Mini-Bosses, and 18 Bounty Bosses.
• Choose from over 18+ Unique Relics. All of them have their own Awakened State.
• Combine Awakened Relics into over 16+ overpowered True Relics.
• Min-Max your run with manual/automatic Character stat distribution per level up.

You'll also get 1 hour and 40 minutes of music to go with it on the soundtrack. Nice!

The developer confirmed to me full Native Linux support and Steam Deck support at release. A demo is planned to release soon too, so if it sounds like it might be your thing, you're probably going to want to follow it along.
