The Developer Says...
Against Great Darkness is the brick-breaker, bullet hell, roguelite. Choose your pagan deity and break free from the clutches of Lucifer. Juggle your disks to defeat your enemies as you progress through the circles of hell and confront relentless demonic bosses.
In each run, acquire powerful relics that will assist you in your escape. Juggle the disks to unleash the power they hold and discover the synergies that will truly set you free.

Choose between acquiring motes of light, purchasing items in the shop, receiving a much-needed heal, or risking it all with unique mystery events that can either reward or hinder your ascent.
