December Update (v0.6): save system, new branch, new monsters, new class

The first big update for Golden Krone Hotel has been released! Version 0.6 includes several content additions, control enhancements, and a save system.

Changelog

Save system added
Renown System added - Unlock disguises (classes) by leveling up your renown level
The game is now fully playable with mouse: mouse can be used for all actions including movement and selecting magic directions
Sharpshooter class added
New branch: The Grotto. Stairs to this branch will appear much earlier than others.
Two new monsters: Electric Eel and Crocodile
Auto-run has been added. Hold down shift and a direction to move up to 7 tiles.
Mouse movement and auto-running is cancelled when taking damage or when first seeing a monster
All magic damage has been toned down by about 15%
Fire damage now has a chance to cause Burning
Monsters now attempt to get closer even if they don't have a direct path to the player
Reduced the number of gold coins and bullets generated
Clicking outside of a menu closes it
The class table has been refactored to prevent erroneous descriptions and several typos were fixed as a result
Death menu improved
Fixed the issue where the last few seconds of your death weren't shown
Fixed a bug with the throw ability
Fixed an issue with 0 damage attacks not being logged
Fixed an issue with the tile selector flickering
Added some additional error handling functionality

A note on the save system: It was quite complex to write, so there's currently no bells and whistles. You're allowed one save at a time, for now. Given how complex the code is, there may be bugs lurking in there. If you want to totally avoid the system, then don't save or exit a run before it ends. If you run into any problems with loading a current save, there's a button to delete your save in the options menu.

Your mission

You play as Sorina Arobase, a human general made famous for hunting vampires. You're on a mission of revenge to kill Fane, the exiled vampire prince. Armed with your sword, revolver, and spell book, you must battle hordes of blood sucking foes. But first you'll be picking one of 10 disguises that will help you on your journey.

Features

It's a roguelike, really! Turn-based combat, permadeath, and tough as nails gameplay
Fully dynamic lighting. Use sunlight as a weapon or snuff out torches to conceal yourself
A groundbreaking potion identification system that encourages risk taking
Each run requires you to play as both human and vampire, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Humans are frail spellcasters. Vampires are brawlers with super human speed and strength.
Leaderboard and shareable morgue files

Content

10 floors, 9 branches, and 6 bosses
Dozens of unique monsters
40 potions
20 spells
10 classes

Game length

Golden Krone Hotel is what's known as a coffee-break roguelike. A pickup and play style allows for short sessions and the save system lets you stop at any time. Winning runs take about 1-2 hours. Want a longer run? No problem! Just crank up the difficulty setting and attempt to clear all the optional branches.

Amenities

Traditional roguelikes are a ton of fun, but usually come with an alphabet-soup of commands that make them tedious and unintuitive. Golden Krone Hotel has a modern, streamlined interface:

A very small number of controls, all of which are rebindable
Completely playable with either mouse or keyboard
Keypress hints on all buttons to help you learn shortcuts
Tooltips on everything
No inventory management!
Items are picked up automatically and gear is auto-equipped

All of which results in less downtime and faster gameplay.

Before you buy....

Please be aware that, being an Early Access title, Golden Krone Hotel is not finished! It's lacking some of the the content, balance, and polish that will be in the full release. If, however, you're willing to play a game that's still in development and has the occasional bug, then buckle up. It'll be a fun ride.
