Hail of Hexes by Puffin Piling Games
Witch on the move! Gwendolyn has run out of ingredients for tea and has to seek some out!

It's been a year now since our first complete project, made in one week for a game jam. Like Gradius style shmups or Survivors style roguelikes? Take 15 minutes and give it a try!

Making a turn-based roguelike in deep space - cosmic horror /grimdark mood, and a bit of Space Invaders chaos.
