Hey everyone, We're once again asking for some intrepid Dead Cells players to test some exciting, shiny-new and very chunky Dead Cells content and help us get some final polish on it. We will be asking for feedback and there will likely be some game-breaking bugs and weird crashes, you have been warned! NOTE: People who applied after our Discord message a few weeks ago do not need to apply again! If you'd like to take part then please fill in the form using the link at the end of this post. You will need to provide your full name, email and Steam profile name - we'll only use those details strictly to contact you about the beta, but if it makes you uncomfortable to give us that information then unfortunately you won't be able to take part. However, we've done this three times now and never had any problems, so you'll be in safe hands You'll also need to sign an NDA before we start, then not share any details of the content with anyone outside the testing group until we release the content. If you do, we'll come after you with the giant Frantic Sword we keep in the office. Only half joking... Applications are open until the end of November, then testing would begin around mid-December. We will not send anyone any messages before the end of November/start of December, so don't worry if you don't have any contact from us before then. You can apply here: https://forms.clickup.com/2460712/f/2b318-21862/ION7S0V1385HHFV92D Thanks in advance to everyone who wants to take part! Cheers, Matt, EE & MT

Roguelite? Metroidvania? Roguevania!
You grew up with the roguelikes, witnessed the rise of the roguelites and even the birth of the roguelite-lites? We'd now like to present for your consideration our RogueVania, the illegitimate child of a modern Roguelite (Rogue Legacy, Binding of Isaac, Enter the Gungeon, Spelunky, etc.) and an old-school MetroidVania (Castlevania: SotN and its ilk).Features:
- RogueVania: The progressive exploration of an interconnected world, with the replayability of a rogue-lite and the adrenaline pumping threat of permadeath.
- 2D Souls-lite Action: Tough but fair combat, more than fifty weapons and spells with unique gameplay, and of course, the emergency panic roll to get you out of trouble.
- Nonlinear progression: Sewers, Ossuary or Remparts? Once unlocked, special permanent abilities allow you to access new paths to reach your objective. Opt for the path that suits your current build, your play style or just your mood.
- Exploration: Secret rooms, hidden passages, charming landscapes. Take a moment to stroll the towers and breath in that fresh sea mist infused air...
Interconnected levels and progressive unlocking of access to the island provides you with a real incentive to explore your surroundings. Add in a degree of evolution for your character and permanent weapon upgrades and you can see where Dead Cells borrows from the long line of MetroidVanias that precede it.
At the end of the day though, it’s YOUR skills as a player that matter most! Roguelites are about constantly getting better, until what was an insurmountable obstacle becomes a walk in the park. Unforgiving combat wed to the absence of any kind of safety net makes for an adrenalin pumping ride each and every run and unrivaled replayability.
Dead Cells left Early Access on August 7th 2018 and comes with:
- 13 Levels - Each one with its own atmosphere, foes and secrets to discover.
- 4 Bosses - Made by the most sadistic of the devs, raised on the salt of the testers.
- 90 or so weapons and skills - Spears, swords, bows, freeze blast, etc.
- 4 special powers, unlocking new areas and paths (metroidvania gear lock items).
- 1 epic responsive, fluid and fun to play combat system.
- 1 Daily Run Mode Complete with leaderboards for lording it over your mates.
- Hours of fun (depending on your skill, anything from 10 to 30 hours or more).
- A few rage-quits, Ok a lot of rage quits… But you’ll git gud… Eventually.
