Our take on Chasm
The story stays the same, but hand-designed rooms are arranged into a different world map for each player.
What is Chasm?
Chasm is an action-adventure platformer about a new knight recruit investigating a closed mine near a remote mountain town.
After supernatural creatures take the townspeople, the recruit explores catacombs and castles, fights monsters, and searches for equipment and abilities. The story is shared across players, but the world map is assembled differently for each playthrough from hand-designed rooms. The game has six procedurally assembled areas, boss battles, and abilities that open routes to previously inaccessible places. Character customization uses armor, weapons, and spells. Arcade Mode includes daily and weekly challenges. The vendor lists Windows, Mac, and Linux versions with gamepad support.
