SleepStone [Rougelike-Concept]

A rather rough example, as the background hasn't been finished and neither has the red character. But entity and hud design are closer to being done.
Will update the example as time goes by and post designs and scenery.

So the current gameplay idea is a Beat'em up with fantasy themes. With the rooms consisting of long horizontal hallways rather than large open arena style rooms. Exception being Boss rooms. 'Deathpits' will exist, but will not instant kill, you will just take damage and respawn where you fell from. To cross them you must perform a Dash (If land exist on the other side.) The floors will be randomized based on preset room layouts placed in a random order.

Characters are handled as a class system rather than a blank slate character. 
Each character will have a special ability that works alongside attacking, and some abilities are passives rather than actives. Rather than going into the 'dungeon' alone, you pick 2 characters to go with you in a party system. But can only have 1 active at a time. Death to any party member is permanent outside of special circumstances or Co-op.

Each character has listed out traits to what they do and are good at respectively. With having a Role, and Style trait and then a third random trait decided by a slot machine before entering the dungeon. 

Due to the Beat'em up feel i'm going for, the movement is multi directional. So up, down, left, and right are all possible, but you can only face left or right.

I am working on the Gladiator, Sorcerer and Assassin classes. Gladiator and Sorcerer are the main starting classes I want to work on. Assassin is just a finished design.

Gladiator Physical.Melee - Starting Melee Character, uses a Sword and Shield. Special skill is Block, slows you down while you take no damage to all sources in front of you.

Sorcerer Magical.Ranged - Starting Ranged Character, uses an Elemental Magic Tome. Special skill is Elemental Switch, change magic on the fly. Fire, Ice, and Lightning. Each Element has different properties and will change your color.
