Build 1.0.1 ReleasedThank you to all those who have bought or checked out Gemstone Keeper during first week of launch. This update mostly fixes some minor issues (mainly input related) following feedback from players:
- Mouse Input should now work on almost all menus, including the pause menu and shop menu.
- Directional-Pad when using controllers should now function correctly.
- Player sprite should no longer appear transparent after being hit.
- Minor animation fixes
- Score Mode should now display the best score achieved by the player on the menu page, with the seed they play with.
In addition to fixes, there has been extra input functionality which most players have not been made aware of. There will be opportunity to explain these in game, but in the meantime:
- In the Pause Menu, on audio options, you can use the scroll wheel for the volume controls.
- In the Score Mode Menu, you can manually enter the seed number using either the number keys or the numpad on your keyboard. This makes it much easier to get a certain seed value.
More to come soon, including a Linux build in the near future!

[ 2017-04-07 22:45:06 CET ] [ Original post ] Gemstone Keeper is a twin stick shooter where avid explorers go down into the Cistershire Caverns, a large, dangerous and mysterious set of caves and caverns that are filled with vast amounts of rare and valuable gemstones. This game combines the quick and reactionary feel of a shooter with the exploration and decision making of classic roguelikes.
Using an ASCII art aesthetic in its purest form, all visual assets are produced from a single text font file, software rendering and visual effects. The weapon and bullet system is fully interchangeable, over 150 gemstones to collect, several creatures and bosses, different game modes and a soundtrack that echoes through the open spaces in-between the rocky walls. Gemstone Keeper is the shooter that is both fun and eerie.
