About Caveblazers

About this game

Caveblazers is an action focused platformer roguelike set in a fantasy world. Each game is unique with procedurally generated levels to explore and a massive amount of items, weapons and equipment to discover.
The game takes place in a recently discovered cave, said to hold "unimaginable power". You play as an adventurer setting out to explore the cave and find out what riches it holds. However, you are not the only one...

As you delve deeper in to the cave, you'll discover new areas to explore, new weapons and new monsters to try them out on.

Smart Characters!

Throughout your journey you will encounter AI characters. Some friendly, some hostile. We're using an advanced pathfinding system which means friendly characters will be able to follow you wherever you go, and hostile characters will be able to track you down wherever you hide. There is no escape. Be afraid!

Platformer Roguelike!

Caveblazers is a modern platformer which incorporates some Roguelike and RPG elements such as permanent death, randomized potion identities, an RPG-style inventory system and tons of items, equipment and upgrades!

Daily Challenge Runs!

Each day a new adventure will be generated! It will be the same for everyone and you'll only get one chance at it! These challenge runs give you a starting loadout, and feature a set of different traits.

Epic Boss Battles!

Between each area you'll encounter a boss. Each boss is very unique, requiring a different strategy to defeat. Bosses are generally gigantic monstrosities with life bars stretching across the entire screen. Good luck!

Character Customization!

A whole load of unlockable hats, tunics, trousers, robes, and more! Or perhaps you fancy stripping off and heading in to the caves in the nude? Go for it!

Compelling Combat!

Largely overlooked in other modern Roguelike games, Caveblazers attempts to move away from the simplistic combat systems we've seen in other games in the genre, and incorporates fun, fluid and fast-paced combat which is accentuated by the game's brutal and persistent blood effects.

Challenges!

In case that isn't enough content, Caveblazers features a bunch of challenges for the well seasoned players to take a punt at. These challenges reward players with new items, weapons & perks!

Cave blazers is ok from the short time I've played it, feels like a cheap knock off of spelunker though, so i wouldn't recommend this, I'd say save up for spelunker or wait for a sale on it

A great little gem, side scrolling game. A unique take on a classic adventure style game.

For the price, a decent pickup but controls need some serious getting used too

So, played it for about 2hrs so far and its an interesting game. Reminds me of spleunky a little bit but with more hectic combat. The controls are a little wonky on the steam deck but i may just need some more practice. For example, aiming any of the ranged weapons is like solving a trig problem lol

Tough as nails, but it keeps evolving as you play. Extra fun when a second local player joins. Lots of law and secrets to learn.

A great platformer

Fanatical User

The whole family loves it! While none of us three is any good at it, we keep coming back to it either on here or on Switch. The procedural levels, cute pixel art and great soundtrack back solid gameplay for a great challenging platformer with a fun character customization. Wether you're a single player or a co-op player (split-screen), Caveblazers is a lot of fun if you don't mind dying horribly in 10 thousand ways ^^ EDIT: Co-op is also available through an official mod for up to three players Online.
