Voltaire: The Vegan Vampire Gameplay

This game is an action-farming roguelike, a group of genres I honestly never thought I would see together. You take control of Voltaire, a vampire who, on his path to veganism, must plant crops to sustain himself. Players can gather the seeds for these crops by foraging, as well as crafting. They can then prepare the fields they have access to so that they can plant said seeds. Once the seeds become fully-grown plants, the player can then eat them to lower their hunger. Voltaire's hunger increases whenever he does various tasks. This includes planting crops, watering them, or foraging for them. You must always keep an eye on your hunger meter, as if it becomes full, you will pass out and night will arrive.

When night arrives, the game switches from its farming gameplay to its action roguelike gameplay. Various enemies will try to destroy your crops, as well as your home. You become empowered in the night, allowing you to attack these enemies directly. The crops you plant decide what enemies attack, so keep that in mind. You won't be alone in defending your home, however, as you can also plant crops that can attack enemies. Once you defeat enough enemies, you can level up, which lets you upgrade your character. The upgrades vary from improved melee attacks to stronger traps. Decide your playstyle and adjust accordingly.

What's even better is that you can play this game in split-screen co-op. You will need a controller to do so, but it'll make the game even more fun.
