Co-op action RPG Serpent’s Gaze announced for PC

by

Okay, so I just heard about this new game called Serpent’s Gaze and it sounds awesome! It’s being made by the folks who used to work at Coffee Stain Studios, and they’re calling it a co-op action RPG. Basically, imagine a Soulslike with tough fights and huge bosses, but with the fun of building up your character like you do in a roguelike. I’m already hooked on the idea! And the best part? A demo is out right now on Steam, so I’m downloading it as we speak!

Feeble Minds is thrilled to announce the launch of our studio and give everyone a first look at our new game, Serpent’s Gaze. A playable demo is available now! According to CEO Jannik Reuterberg, our team combines industry veterans from companies like Coffee Stain and Paradox with exciting new talent. We’re dedicated to building a detailed and immersive world, blending beloved game elements with innovative ideas. We’re eager to get your thoughts on the demo and will be sharing more updates as development continues!

Here is an overview of the game, via Feeble Minds:

About

Serpent’s Gaze is a challenging cooperative game for one to four players. You’ll team up to battle difficult enemies and powerful bosses as you explore and unravel the mysteries of an ancient desert.

In Serpent’s Gaze, you’ll explore carefully designed levels – not randomly generated ones – and the game is best experienced with up to four players in co-op, though you can also play solo. Each playthrough feels fresh because of a “Curse” system that adds increasingly challenging effects, like extra enemies or minibosses that pursue you. Build strong character setups during each run to conquer the obstacles in your path.

You are a chosen hero, brought to life by the fading tree god Magnolia, and tasked with defeating the gods and rulers who have taken control of the land. Your journey will be filled with conflict, but you decide how to fight. As you progress, you’ll uncover the mysteries of the desert and learn the truth about Magnolia in a story revealed gradually through gameplay.

Key Features

  • Soulslike Combat With a Roguelike Twist – Choose your favorite weapon and fight tough enemies in heavy, tactical combat, with a plethora of different upgrade possibilities. Fight your way through handcrafted levels, and face the bosses—as many times as you need.
  • Play as a Team, or Face the Challenges Alone – With support for up to 4 players, you can face the challenges of the world together with your teammates, or play at your own pace alone.
  • Gather Blessings and Choose Your Playstyle – As you progress through levels, you find upgrades along the way—blessings from strange deities, gifts from your patron and strange relics to utilize in your pilgrimage. Choose wisely and explore endless builds and strategies.
  • Get Cursed by the Gods, and Adapt to New Challenges – The Curse system introduces random variables every run—everything from minibosses hunting you, to environmental hazards that keep new runs fresh and challenging. The Awareness system brings even more challenges, making each successful run progressively harder.
  • Explore an Ancient Desert and Its Mysteries – Battle through imposing environments inhabited by different factions. The desert and ruins belong to the nomadic Majin, while the city with its cathedrals is inhabited by the proud Attar’Esh.
  • Uncover the Intent of Your Creator – You are a scion—brought to life by the withering tree god Magnolia, with the sole purpose of vanquishing the opposing gods and usurpers who currently rule the lands. There is only one way to make the desert bloom again—violence.
