About Red Rogue
Red Rogue is a platformer roguelike by Aaron Steed (robotacid): guide the rogue and her minion down through dungeon levels full of monsters, traps and treasure. There is no jump button: you fight by walking into monsters and landing on them knocks them back.
Items, spells and skills are chosen from a menu on the Space key, and your minion fights at your side. Every level hides an exit to the next one, so a run is a careful descent where each new item can change the fight. The sound and music are by Nathan Gallardo.
