Viking Ghost is the result of ‘beer, heavy metal’ and a love of the words viking and ghost. It’s a fast-paced dungeon-crawler with procedurally generated levels, and ‘rogue-like-lite’.
It’s a comical spin and is story driven with eight locations to smash through. It’s inspired by classics like The Legend of Zelda, Smash TV, Robotron.
”n Viking Ghost you’ll be using many different weapons and special abilities to fight your way through waves of enemies, as well as each level’s Boss. In addition to combat, you’ll be solving simple puzzles to advance through certain areas. Viking Ghost also features a light upgrade system, where you can spend experience points gained during battle at the end of each level, to further improve attributes like speed, attack, defense, etc,” described Dead Alien Cult.
”You’ll also be able to spend coins on various items to help you along your way.”
Viking Ghost is listed on Steam Greenlight with PC, Mac and Linux versions planned. It’s a single-player action adventure, arcade shooter. ”The idea for Viking Ghost came after many beers, a love for heavy metal, and deciding to randomly combine the words viking and ghost together because we thought it just felt cool,” says the indie team.
