a pachinko roguelike where every run is a life.
pick a country and class. age through 15 rounds, picking up traits along the way. every character is shaped by what you chose, what the board threw at you, and how long they lasted. when they die, a new one starts.
every country plays different
33 countries, each with a unique mechanic. japan shoves pegs into their neighbors. canada leaves an ice trail behind your ball. norway sends viking raiders across the board on wall bounces. mexico hides a piñata in every round.
every class plays different
the butcher cleaves entire rows. the cartographer teleports the ball every few pegs. the astrophysicist pulls pegs toward the ball mid-flight. you pick at run start.
bosses evolve as you fight them
the carousel speeds up, splits, and unravels with every kill. the heartbeat puts you on a 25-second arrhythmia timer. the void warps your shots toward a growing black hole.
traits with real weight
fill the meter, pick a trait. stoic. earnest. twinned. charmed. mournful. some make you stronger, some keep you alive longer, some change how the whole board reads.
life+ difficulty
beat the game to unlock ten tiers of stackable modifiers. each tier locks until the last one's cleared.
