Mara - balanced version
HACK AND SLASH NIGHMARES
You play as Mara, a dream witch and nightmare huntress with the power to enter other people’s dreams and cleanse them of curses.
MARA is a roguelite top-down slasher featuring fast-paced combat, randomly generated levels, and dark, atmospheric dreamscapes. Fight through hordes of grotesque nightmares, unlock new abilities (not in this version), and restore peace to the sleeping minds you invade.
Controls:
- Movement: WASD
- Attack: Left Mouse Button
- Spells: Corresponding hotkeys shown on the ability bar
Attacks and spells are cast in the direction of the mouse cursor. The movement ability (SPACE) activates in the direction of movement.
