The Developer Says...

Vaporum is a grid-based dungeon crawler RPG in an original steampunk setting, inspired by old-school classics of the genre. Stranded in the middle of an ocean, in front of a gigantic tower, the hero has to find out what the place is, what happened there, and most importantly, who he is.

Players Like...

❤ Movement and Combat

The game's grid-based movement system lies at the heart of its combat. Players must strategically position their character to avoid enemy attacks and effectively counter them. Enemies have distinct attack patterns and behaviors, requiring players to carefully observe and adapt their tactics accordingly. The "stop-time" mode allows players to pause the action and plan their next moves, adding an extra layer of strategy to the combat.

❤ Character Progression and Customization

Instead of leveling up a traditional character class, players progress by upgrading an exoskeleton rig. This rig can be customized with different weapons, armor, and gadgets, enabling players to tailor their playstyle. As players progress, they can unlock new circuits for their exoskeleton, granting permanent attribute bonuses and passive skills. This deep character customization system encourages experimentation and replayability.

❤ Puzzles and Exploration

The game features a variety of environmental puzzles that players must solve to progress through the tower. These puzzles range from simple switch-based challenges to more complex, multi-step objectives that require careful observation and problem-solving skills. The tower itself is also designed for exploration, with secret passages and hidden areas containing valuable loot and additional story elements. Players who thoroughly search each level are rewarded with a deeper understanding of the tower's mysteries.

❤ Feedback and Reception

Players have praised the game's ability to modernize the classic dungeon crawler formula without losing its core appeal. The real-time combat with the stop-time mechanic, the deep character customization, and the atmospheric steampunk setting have all been highlighted as standout features. While some reviewers have noted that the puzzles can be hit-or-miss, the game's challenging yet rewarding combat and sense of discovery have been well-received by fans of the genre.
