Description
Valley of Decay is a 2D pixel-art multi-player Hack and Slash game. You can not only choose from many different abilities to fight against monsters in hordes or single great creatures, you can also wear strong items with passive abilities themselves, which support specific other active abilities to support many different builds and playstyles. There is also an auction house, where you can trade from self-found items extracted essences with other players. There is no currency, you can only trade with those. In addition, you can craft your own items with those essences, which you can then not only wear yourself, but they will also be contributed to the game database and other players can find your items themselves, being confronted with your signature. To top it all off, there is a leaderboard, where the best players are listed. There are no limits, no highest level, no strongest item. You can always become stronger.
History
The very roots originate from the game Warcraft 3: TFT, where I managed to develop a game inside the game, that became one of the more successful ones, with over 150k clicks and over 34k downloads on the "hiveworkshop", a website for uploading wc3 maps, alone. The game there had/has the same name as this one here.
That positive feedback made me want to do more, which all lead to this game here. I started the development 3 years ago and it has been a constant hobby of mine. It has always been my dream to create a game, where I can waste my time and have fun with my friends by sharing insane happenings. I hope to give exactly that fun to more people than just a few, because the world needs entertainment, laughter and joy.
