Tetraworld is a Roguelike game set in a world where space has 4 dimensions instead of the usual 3 (or 2 of the classical roguelikes). It is currently still in early development; however, playable pre-alpha builds are available.
Description
In Tetraworld, you start off as a new recruit hired by the Tetraworld Corp. to be a 4D treasure hunter. They provide your initial training in moving around in 4D space, and then send you off on missions to retrieve "gold ore". Not all is as it seems, however, and pretty soon, you will find yourself in a bind and will have to survive in a hostile land in the exotic geometry of 4D space.
Special features
- Full freedom of movement in 4D (8 perpendicular cardinal directions). All 4 dimensions are treated equivalently as far as movement and adjacency are concerned.
- Gravity. One of the axes of space is considered up/down; you will fall down unless a floor is blocking you, or if you are swimming, or if you're suspended by something.
- Climb-ledge combo move: a 1-tile high ledge can be climbed on in a combo move that costs 1.5 turns.
Versions and platforms
Currently only pre-alpha builds are available. Supported platforms are Linux and Windows (64-bit).
