The development of Jumalien :

Jumalien's Design: Jumalien began as a single-player Rogue-Lite with a mythology theme. To allow multiple players to play simultaneously, a multiplayer mode was created based on the single-player game. Following this, it became too complicated to maintain and coexist with a single-player and multiplayer game. The first was removed and replaced by a second multiplayer mode, Draft, which encourages confrontation, unlike the other mode, which is based on exploration.
 

During development, two talented individuals worked on the project: Emmanuel Dodet created the illustrations and interfaces, and Noé Hourant produced all the audio.
 

After being presented at multiple festivals and playtest phases throughout its seven years of production, Jumalien is ready for release!
