About the game

As the legend says: Those who get lost in this place, end up haunting it.

Description

You play as a SF character facing Heroic Fantasy creatures in this Dungeon Crawler with Platformer gameplay.
You wake up in the depths of a huge cave dotted with temples and dungeons. Face traps, creatures and bosses to make your way to the exit and return home. Collect everything that will allow you to improve your suit and thus increase your chances of success.

The game is in pre-production phase, I will give you more details on its content in a few weeks.

Features

  • Collect gems and items to improve your abilities.
  • Each creature has its own abilities and combat strategies.
  • Explore and get lost in labyrinthine levels.
  • At least 4h to complete the game at 100%.

In the DEMO you will only have access to a reduced area of the Grotto as well as a single dungeon.

Designer's notes

The estimated time to finish the game is the time it takes me to finish it 100%.
So it will take you at least twice as long.
For the content of my games, I always prioritize quality over quantity.

About releases

Grotto Escape will be released in April 2026 on Steam.

Current releases:

  • DEMO available for Windows 64-bit on Steam, GameJolt and Itchio.
