The Maw: a skull-shaped cave mouth with a sword planted in its crown, fog across the rocks below

Dark-fantasy action RPG

Avernal Maw

The Hollow Below

A dungeon that keeps descending.

Playable vertical slice · 000871

An action RPG that builds its own dungeons. Rooms, corridors and what lives in them are put together as you go down, and you are a keeper walking the floors below the Maw, sword up, torch behind you.

The dungeon is assembled floor by floor as you enter it, so no two descents read the same, and the way down is never finished. You keep a torch, a blade and a reason to go on.

Around the descent sits a working frame: skill tree with ranks, action bar, party list, minimap and a world map that shows where every keeper in the session stands.

In the build

  • Dungeons that assemble themselves floor by floor
  • Camera you can orbit, tilt and zoom to read the room
