Description

Runewatch is a Single-Player Roguelite First-Person Shooter with Role-Playing Game elements for PC. The player controls an elementalist who makes use of their magic abilities while exploring randomly generated dungeons, defeating enemies, and progressively becoming a master elementalist through exploration, killing, death and repetition.

History

D4 Studios was founded in Lisbon in 2021 by programmer Pedro Marques and artists Gabriel Santos, Gonçalo Vila Verde and Pedro Bezerra.

The first three members already worked together, having developed small projects such as Inner Mind – a 1st person Puzzle/Adventure and Asashin - a 3rd person Action/Adventure, bringing the team already some experience in PC development.

Before joining D4 Studios, Pedro Bezerra had also worked on similar projects such as Timefall – a 1st person puzzle/adventure and 3rd person Remains of Light - Action/Adventure.

With this in mind, the team now decides to bet on its most important title, and the team's biggest project to date, Runewatch: Age of Arcanum. The videogame arises from a partnership with the Lusófona University of Humanities and Technologies course: Degree in Video Games.

Features

Great variety of elemental spells available to the player, thus being able to create several builds and having the possibility of having a completely different strategy with each new game.
Randomly generated game map on each playthrough, changing the number of rooms the player finds and the loot they have.
Stylized environment with a strong focus on VFX.
Variety of enemies that influences the player to think through their spell choices on each playthrough.
