Across all dimensions, the only constant is Darkness! A procedurally generated RPG-roguelike journey across the multiverse! In One Way Heroics, you take on the role of an intrepid adventurer who must travel across the land and face the Demon Lord before a mysterious darkness engulfs everything.
The gameplay revolves around a central mechanic where players must constantly move their character to the right to outpace an encroaching darkness that will consume them if caught. This forces players to make quick, strategic decisions to survive.
Players can choose from 8 distinct character classes, each with unique abilities, strengths, and playstyles. For example, the Knight excels in melee combat, while the Hunter specializes in ranged attacks. As players progress, they can unlock new classes and equip powerful perks, allowing them to tailor their approach and add depth to the experience.
The game's environments are procedurally generated, ensuring that every playthrough offers fresh challenges. Players must explore these randomly-assembled worlds, encountering a variety of obstacles, enemies, and potential allies along the way. The constant need to move forward creates a sense of urgency and tension as players navigate the landscape.
Successful runs require careful resource management and strategic planning. Players must balance their actions, deciding when to engage enemies, when to explore for valuable items, and when to retreat to safety. The limited time and space provided by the scrolling screen forces players to think critically about their decisions, creating a high-stakes, challenging experience.
While each run ends in permadeath, the game features a persistent progression system that allows players to carry over certain items and unlocks to future playthroughs. This includes the ability to store powerful equipment in a dimensional vault, as well as unlock new classes and perks using hero points earned from previous runs. This encourages players to experiment with different strategies and playstyles as they work towards overcoming the game's challenges.
The game integrates a pseudo-multiplayer element, allowing players to see the status and death messages of other adventurers playing in the same world. This creates a sense of shared experience and a competitive edge as players strive to outdo one another, adding an additional layer of depth to the solo experience.
