Sporekind was started for Pirate's Jam with the theme "You Are The Weapon." Unfortunately, due to an unexpected work crunch I had to skip nearly all 2 weeks of this jam. But, I decided to submit in its current state as a commitment to finishing the project, even now after that jam is over.

📜 Check out the Game Design Document (GDD) for detailed concepts and plans. Will do my best for keep it in fresh state.

About the Game

Sporekind is an arena auto-battler with sense of roguelite elements, inspired by the strange and fascinating  the `zombie-ant fungus` (Ophiocordyceps unilateralis).
Take control of parasitic spores, infect hosts, mutate your abilities, and dominate swarms of rival insects.

🛠 Possible Features and Mechanics

• 🐜 Dynamic Hosts: Variety of infected hosts each with its own base abilities.
• ⏱ Infestation: Hurry, before your host’s lifecycle ends.
• 💡 Unstable Mutations: Gather DNA and take some temp abilities during runs for some dynamic and random effects.
• 🌳 Stable Mutations: Build a persistent talent tree for long-term progression. Unlock new Unstable Mutations to your ability pool.
• 🎯 Tags & Skill Behaviour: Modular skills with tags like Projectile, AoE, and Aura for dynamic upgrades and extendent behaviour.
• ⚔ Arena Battle: Engage waves of enemies, destroy nests, and even bosses.
• 🏡 Hub Management: Upgrade your spore colony and prepare for the next run.
