Good day keepers! So Ludum Dare 35 has just ended, for the past 72 hours there has been no sleep, no rest, just pure game development for a theme Shapeshift!
First things first
As this is the Shoppe Keep Community discussions, I feel I should start from it. Because the jam has ended, so has ended our "vacation" from Shoppe Keep, back on the horse and going strong, at the moment I am writing this, the project is open and bein worked on relentlessly, so expect updates to start popping back on, we have to make this a finished game, and not let it become one of the Early Access victims of unfinished games limbo, so those who have been with us for a long time knows that we always keep our word, and we always work hard to bring the best entertainment possible! Stay tuned. Now if you are interested why Shoppe Keep has not been worked on for the last 3 days, do continue to read!

Description:
Exhuman is a video game which grants you control over a measly human being who just wants to eradicate the world of demons, monsters and evil killer robots, but is too weak because of his flesh, but! He can find unique chests to replace his weak limbs with other creature parts, why? Because game dev.
This game is a rogueLITE in it's core, with a possibility to choose an option to make it a true hard rogueLIKE that removes all progress on death without even looking at you. The game will pit you against 3 separate themed levels each containing enemies native to that level, try to survive each level, and go on to the next one by evading ranged attacks, collecting scraps that heal you and finding new limbs to help in your struggle. Once all 3 levels are beaten, you can play the Arena which will pit you at ongoing waves of the same enemies you faced, and upgraded versions of them giving you a real challenge.
*Fast paced action
*Possibility to choose your play style RogueLIKE or RogueLITE
*4 humanoid forms that can be pieced limb by limb
*3 levels
*Arena challenge level after the game has been won.
There are 3 upgrades for each limb (Head, Chest, Left Arm, Right Arm, Legs)
Head will heal you on each melee hit
Chest will increase your base HP
Left Arm is your melee damage dealer
Right Arm is your ranged damage dealer
Legs let you sprint by holding left shift
Each tier upgrade increases the usefulness of a limb
Enjoy!
