Golem Fortress
A downloadable game for Windows
A top-down 3d game which borrows elements of classic games like snake into the dungeon! Enter the mountain fortress as Puddlewick the sorcerer to raise an army of clay golems. The fortress can be a treacherous place though, and for every golem you add to your legion, you may be closing your own way out. Growing to a 100 count formation before exiting the breach, what could go wrong?

Install instructions
This is an unreal engine build, so be wary of outdated graphics cards or specs.
The executable is zipped inside, do not delete the content folders. Due to time constraints no menu for exiting could be established before the deadline, so alt-tab will have to suffice

The Game is Great. I like the art style. The only crticism is that it should have a tutorial but otherwise a good game!
I agree, that's the top feedback I get. Next time or for future updates there may be a level to introduce things better. Thanks for playing
This is magnificient!! The poetic message that pops us when you die, the art style and the fluid movement really takes me back to the old nostalgic days!!
Thank you so much for playing
