Check Out the Source of Madness Steam Early Access Trailer:
Thunderful Publishing & Carry Castle have revealed that the next big update for roguelite action RPG, Source of Madness, a Lovecraftian odyssey powered by procedural generation and AI machine learning, that generates unique horrors for you to face on every run, is now available.
The They Came From The Deep update adds two new biomes, a new class and themed decorations to celebrate Halloween. In the Plateau of Leng players will find themselves in a strange location where realities converge and a corpse-eating cult roams its warped landscapes. Another flavor of madness lies in wait at the City of R’lyeh, an ancient construction of non-Euclidean proportions that feels as if it’s spent eons waiting for the end of all things. The new Bloodmancer class starts players off with a blood band, gives them 50% less life, but adds the ability to gain life whenever they kill a monster or detach a limb.
Source of Madness sees you take on the role of a new Acolyte as they embark on a nightmarish odyssey. Uncover the cosmic secrets of the Loam Lands and The Tower of Madness, the moon’s mysterious Citadel. Battle billions of procedurally generated monsters with powerful spells, conquer epic bosses and explore gothic-inspired locations on a journey that blends roguelike progression with RPG-esque character building.
“We’ve been delighted by the overwhelmingly positive response Source of Madness has received since launching in Early Access,” said Per Fornander, Co-Founder at Carry Castle. “We’re improving the game with every update thanks to the help of our community and we’re really excited for them to see how we’ve expanded this twisted world in the They Came From the Deep update.”
