Our take on Katana Rama
Players who struggle to stay mobile may bounce off as soon as enemy barrages begin: the game explicitly makes movement central to avoiding both melee and projectile attacks. The energy system adds another decision point, since stored energy is needed to open doors or stun shielded heavy enemies.
What is Katana Rama?
Play as a hacker program trying to escape a digital security fortress with a stolen program.
Move through a procedurally assembled dungeon whose rooms vary between runs, fighting enemies that use melee and projectile attacks. Keep moving to avoid their attacks. A swift strike can kill most enemies and turn their data into energy. Build up that energy to break doors between chambers or disable a heavy enemy’s shield and stun it before attacking. Each dungeon ends with a boss fight that calls for using the available tools. The game uses low-poly visuals inspired by early 64-bit games.
