Official site of Magog |
It is supposed to be simple. You come in at the wake of the host, pick through the ruin they leave, and take what valuables the dregs did not find or comprehend. Only now you're not facing a silent waste, but a crawling army of the things still here. And yet the way back is sealed until you have walked the path to the end.
Features
- Continuous world using portal technology, no stair-scumming corner cases.
- Hex grid gameplay.
- Animated graphics.
Implementation details
- Uses an Entity Component System.
- The portal system is essentially the same as the one in Jacob's Matrix, except that the portals can't change orientation.
