Maidmachine's Apocalypse

Main

This game is a combination of such genres as RPG Maker garbage, self-proclaimed roguelike and boss rush. In it you take the role of an old maidmachine that spent most of its life in sleep mode. You awaken right at the end of the world and now its fate is in your hands.

Gameplay

RPG Maker garbage adds typical turn-based battle system. Self-proclaimed roguelike adds a ton of randomness to the items you get and the bosses you fight. Boss rush makes every encounter a boss fight, giving all of them a unique flavor.

The gameplay of this game is mainly about getting good build and dealing with RNG in different ways. Knowledge is also a big part of the gameplay. While there is no metaprogression, your knowledge grows with each failed attempt, eventually leading you to being able to beat the game even if you suck at everything it requires.

Along your way you will have to beat 5 bosses, with difficulty curve looking like "very easy, easy, very hard, what the hell, okay I can manage this". Each boss will have unique characteristics and unique drops. Some of them will also have this thing called "special effect". Special effects are basically checks of your build and knowledge. For example, there is a special effect that turns off your items, halves your healing and makes you constantly lose health. Have fun with that.

You can choose between three difficulties, with the easiest being reaaaally easy, normal being normal, and hard being hell.

Art

The game's art is pretty inconsistent, but has a certain  v i b e.  Out-of-combat looks like some kind of old painting with all these dark desaturated yellowish colors, while in-combat gets brighter and more saturated.

Music

There isn't much new music that you haven't heard in my other game's/on my channel. Even if not really original, the soundtrack fits the game perfectly (if you're ready to trust my taste).

Story

World end, you save world. Enemies bad, you kill enemies. To know more you can visit the library location, talk to the shopkeepers, and sometimes get lore books just by playing the game. Overall I'd say the story of this game is like 4/10, it's more about gameplay and  v i b e  than plot.

Look, this is a full run on normal difficulty with so many effects on it that you can't even understand what's happening.
