About This Game

Katanaut is a fast-paced, Metroidvania-inspired action roguelite blending fluid combat and cosmic horror. Slash, dodge, and wield powerful abilities as you battle through a station sprawling with twisted, once-human horrors. Adapt, survive, and descend into the shadows to uncover dark secrets.

In this game, you can…

  • …take a syringe upgrade that costs 1 hit point and keep pumping your stats until you're sitting on 75% crit and about 200% katana damage.
  • …pet a cat during a mission and trigger a memorable "don't do that" consequence.
  • …beat the game once and have later runs start changing fights with new enemies, modifiers, and altered encounter behavior.

About This Game

Afflicted by severe amnesia, you drift deep into the Common Dream. You scour for the lost pages of the Necronomicon, while clinging on to any little purpose you have left. Faced with mad dreamers, horrible abominations and eldritch deities, you feel drawn to the dark Abyss deep within.
