Aurumorn

A lost city of gold. The greedier you are, the slower your are

Aurumorn was once a city drowning in wealth but now it's in ruins... Yet you seek what was the remains...

Explore procedurally generated dungeons, fight off the golems and shadows still guarding the ruins, and hoard every last piece of gold you can carry. But greed has a cost: the more gold you're carrying, the slower you move. Choose your moment, keep hoarding and risk getting caught, or find an altar and melt your gold down into raw power before the dungeon collects its debt back.

Features:

• Procedurally generated dungeon rooms, no two runs the same
• Risk/reward gold-weight mechanic, the richer you are, the more vulnerable you become
• Melting gold at altars  permanently upgrade your strength 
• Melting gold at shrines permanently increases your max health
•  4-color palette, 160×144 resolution scaled up to 960x864, similar to the original gameboy

Controls:

• Arrow keys — move
• [J]— attack
• [E] — interact with altars and shrines
