Solo developer CurlyMango invites players into a dark medieval fantasy world of loot, magic, and bullet-hell chaos

LootMage Early Access Launches 11 September 2025 at 08:00 UTC
 

Seoul, South Korea – 11 September 2025 – Solo indie developer CurlyMango today announced that LootMage, a bullet-hell roguelite infused with dark fantasy magic, launches in Early Access at 08:00 UTC. Featuring three complete stages at launch, LootMage combines frenetic bullet-hell combat with creative build-making through loot collection and synergistic items.
 

Players begin their journey with only a wooden staff, delving into procedurally generated dungeons where every run offers new challenges and rewards. By collecting magical artifacts, staves, and spells, players can unlock powerful synergies and customize their combat style with Mana Stones that alter projectile speed, count, reflection, and homing effects.
 

“LootMage is about the thrill of looting, adapting, and discovering magical builds that feel truly your own,” says MinGyu Lee, developer of CurlyMango. “With Early Access, I want to grow the game together with the community, balancing and expanding based on real player feedback.”
 

Key Features
 

  • Loot-Driven Gameplay – Start with only a wooden staff and grow stronger by collecting powerful loot in each dungeon run.

  • Synergy System – Every passive item carries two magical essences. Collecting 2, 4, or 6 of the same essence unlocks potent synergy effects.

  • Combat Customization – Use Mana Stones to adjust projectile speed, count, reflection, homing, and more—tailor your playstyle run by run.

  • Procedurally Generated Dungeons – Each run presents fresh layouts and enemy encounters, ensuring no two journeys are the same.

  • Inspired by the Classics – Developed with love for fans of Enter the Gungeon and The Binding of Isaac.
