Cave Trek

About the Game

[h2]No path? Dig one.[/h2]

CaveTrek is a single-player pixel-art roguelike platformer. Head into the caves with a sword, a shovel, and a supply of dirt. Search for the exit while weighing treasure against monsters and traps. Jump across, dig through, or spend a few supplies to make another route: the next move is yours.

[h2]Make the terrain work for you[/h2]

Dig through dirt and stone, then place the dirt you collect to create new footholds. Remove spikes that block your path, or place spikes where you need them. Take a moment to read your surroundings, then reshape your route.

[h2]One more treasure, or a safer way out?[/h2]

Gold, rubies, and chests can tempt you off the direct path. Limited health and tool uses give those detours a cost. When you find a shop, spend gold on shovel uses, dirt, or arrows. Spend your supplies on the treasure in sight, or save them for what comes next?

[h2]Watch the chain reactions[/h2]

Bats, spiders, and ghosts bring different threats, while spikes and rocket traps punish a careless step. Fight with your sword, shoot from a distance, or change course to avoid trouble. Exploding powder kegs can tear through the terrain—and catch nearby objects in the blast.

[h2]Learn something. Try another run.[/h2]

Explore randomized caves, cross a tunnel, and venture into the blue stone caverns. A new layout calls for new decisions. When a run ends in failure, take what you learned into the next one. Look out for the cave residents along the way: clear the threats around their houses so they can safely emerge.
