Overview

About this game

Dungeon Killer

Death has a price. Astrid is willing to pay it in blood.

Dungeon Killer is an intense 2D boss rush shoot ’em up featuring horror elements, visual novel-style storytelling, and fast-paced combat.

Play as Astrid, the eldest of the Nova Queens, a woman consumed by grief after the death of her husband. Unable to accept her loss, she steals confidential data from Nova Labs to locate a dungeon inhabited by Yin-Yan, the Goddess of Death herself. Her goal is simple: demand the resurrection of her beloved.

If the dungeon's creatures try to stop her, Astrid will not hesitate to carve her way through them.

Armed with a devastating experimental minigun capable of firing different colored ammunition, you must adapt to increasingly complex attack patterns as you descend into the depths of a realm where death rules over all things.

Face Monstrous Bosses

Each boss features unique mechanics, attack patterns, and personalities.

Milena Trusova, a drider ballerina whose graceful dance is as deadly as it is beautiful.

Madam Vyper, a marilith seamstress who crafts dresses from the skin, bones, and remains of her human sacrifices.

Mia, Kalia, and Anya, three angelic sisters.

Nissa, a necromancer siren capable of summoning corpses.

Balatra, a chaotic and sadistic harpy whose unpredictable nature turns every battle into a nightmare.

Yin-Yan, the embodiment of death itself.

Story & Narrative

Between battles, uncover the secrets of the world through visual novel-inspired story sequences.

Learn about Astrid's past, the motivations of the dungeon's guardians, and the consequences of an obsession powerful enough to challenge the natural order of life and death.
