Demonic Dominion

In a world where infernal forces have taken over the world, the last human survivors have retreated into the dungeons. You are tasked by your evil master to enter the dungeons and wipe out the last resistance.

Not being a fighter yourself, you have to power to summon hellish creatures to do your masters bidding for you. Fight (or rather, let fight) through 10 levels and defeat the final boss.

This is my entry for Ludum Dare 55. Unfortunately I got sick during the jam, so I didnt manage to finish the game as planned. As such, this should be considered a prototype. You can play through it to the end, but several features are missing. Units are not balanced properly and the dungeons look rather bland.

Move your character with WASD.

Spawn creatures with Keys 1-4, using soul energy.

Each unit type has both advantages and disadvantages. Your demonic spawns will move to your cursor and attack enemies in range automatically. Killing enemies is rewarded with more souls.

Navigate through the dungeon and find the stairs to the next level. Keep in  mind that your demons will not follow to the next level, so don't waste all your souls.

When you are hit, you use up souls to protect yourself from damage.

In each level are boxes which spawn either more souls or equipment, which grants bonuses like better armor, more damage, more souls or a higher max soul capacity.

Equipment is kept after death, so if you die, you start with an advantage.
