Bloody Heart

Made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 57!

Descend into madness. Bloody Heart is a game about rage, revenge, and the occult horrors from beyond our world.

Take control of a cards to hack-and-slash through waves of enemies. Find chests that contain better gear, combat powerful figureheads in the occult world, avoid the rats, and most importantly: finish what you started a long time ago.

Game made by myself, Celtican, with a guest appearance from Gardenovena, who made the capsule art!

Known bugs

• The Seer is incorrectly titled The Silent in the card, but correctly titled The Seer in the tooltip.
