Lone Warrior

Lone Warrior is a minimalist fast-paced action roguelite with reaction-based, 1-on-1 battles and short, repeatable runs.
Time your dodges, strike during brief openings and spend the gold you keep after death to unlock new spells, stats and items.

Core gameplay loop:
– Dodge telegraphed enemy attacks in real time
– Hit back while enemies are standing still or recovering
– Kill mobs to earn gold and upgrade your hero between runs
– Unlock new skills, spells and builds in a branching skill tree

Each stage is a series of 10 duels in a row. You probably won’t clear it on your first attempt – but every enemy you kill gives you gold, letting you push further next time with a stronger build.

Inspired by JRPG-style 1-on-1 battles, Peglin-like progression and the reaction-based combat of Timing Hero with improved gameplay and pixel graphics.
