About the game:
Ghost Vanguard is a beat'em up game that combines stylish action with roguelike elements. Grab your sword and step into treacherous evil dungeons, using stylish and magnificent combos to defeat the sinister forces from the darkness and reclaim a hero's stolen soul.
- A reimagination of the 2D side-scrolling action with modern roguelike elements and fluid, high-mobility gameplay
- For fans of titles such as Dragon's Crown side-scroller and Devil May Cry's stylish action, with the dark fantasy worlds of Castlevania and Berserk.
- Customize your build with weapons, spells, and relics to unlock powerful synergies, with each build shaping its own unique combo style to keep every run fresh and exciting.
- Master a wide range of weapons, each with its own combo tree, tempo, and tactical depth.
- Ghost Vanguard features a replayable level design with randomized maps and diverse special rooms—including arcade-inspired mini-games, challenge zones, trap chests, and healing springs—that keep every run fresh and engaging.
Created by Wombo Combo Games, the team of 2 based in Japan is looking to raise $20,000 on Kickstarter to finish environments, enemies, weapons, polish gameplay details, balance systems, handle localization and console ports.
The team have said:
“We're excited to share our game on Kickstarter and with our new community. With our backers support, we can secure the resources needed to complete development while also gathering your feedback to refine the experience together.”
