Stagick

Stagick is a battle & story game based on the curses library, meaning that it consists of an 80 x 24 grid of colored tiles!

Invade the building of a company possessing a 'magic stick', move around the map and interact with the people and more! Fight your way through the 70+ different enemies guarding the place! The enemies shoot at you – dodge and shoot back!

And then, after taking their magic stick ... there's still a lot of stuff to discover about the world of Stagick ...

Throughout the game, you'll talk to the people you're attacking – both in friendly and hostile manner. That means you need to be ready for some reading!

For ease of use, the game runs using an SFML wrapper, thus it renders into a normal window. Only for macOS (Apple Silicon), there's a version that runs in the actual Terminal window using regular libcurses.

YOU CAN TRY IT OUT RIGHT NOW BY PLAYING THE DEMO HERE!

Note though that the demo is stripped down to only a web recreation of the battle system so you can get an impression of how the gameplay works!
