A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

'Non Shall Survive is a small arena survival game I made during some time off and set myself a deadline to get a demo out by the end of the year. Right now development is on pause.

  • Survive all twenty waves to win!
  • Along the way you can purchase up to 6 spells and items from the shop.
  • After collecting 6 spells you can buy spell-specific upgrades or, if you're lucky, the opportunity to merge 2 of your spells into one.
  • Currently 22 spells, 44 spell upgrades, 100 shop items, and 5 playable characters.
  • Easy to modify and extend plaintext format for enemies, spells, animations and upgrades.

Controls:

  • WASD, arrow keys or left analog stick for movement. (D-pad for menus.)
  • Return or (A)/(⨉) to select in menus, shop, etc.
  • E or (B)/(○) to cast character ability.
  • R or (X)/(□) to reroll shop items.
  • Escape/P or (start)/(☰) to pause.

Apologies for there being no sound/volume options or rebinding. Also if you're photosensitive later waves may have flashing lights.

Features royalty free tracks from PeriTune. Voice lines generated by VoiceVox.
