Ignistone Gameplay
This game is a sidescrolling roguelike game. Players take control of a character who can equip a variety of weapons and shields to fight off enemies. Players have a variety of weapons and amulets that they can use during their runs. Each of these weapons and amulets has its own skills, which should help the player as they progress through each run. Some of these skills are very synergistic and are compatible with one another. As such, it is up to the player to find the combination of weapons and amulets that match their playstyle.
Players don't just fight during their runs. They can also participate in various random events, which range from mining to making a dialogue option. These random events have an effect on the player's current run, so make sure to do your best whenever you are doing your game run. While some of these branches are positive, others are negative and could prevent progress. This gives the game a lot of replayability, as different branches can significantly change how you play the game.
After each run, the player can return to the village, where they can upgrade their equipment, change their companion's appearance, and more. After upgrading equipment, equipping skills, and changing your companion's appearance, it is time to once more dive into the fray. This is the main gameplay loop of Ignistone, and as such the player will have to get used to it.
