Grim Fight

A snappy roguelite auto-battler with drag-and-drop squad building, crunchy item crafting, and flashy abilities.

TL;DR

Build a team, place them on a tactical grid, and hit Space to watch the chaos.

Merge components into powerful items, pick augments every few floors, and climb as far as you can on a single run.

Lightweight 2D action built with Phaser + React, shipped via Electron.

Features

• Tactical Auto-Battles: Your squad fights automatically; you set the stage with placement, items, and synergies.
• Deep Item Crafting: Combine components into completed items (think TFT-style recipes). Drag an item onto a hero to equip; merge automatically when a valid pair is present.
• Augments & Events: Every few floors, pick from random augments that reshape your run. Enemies earn augments on milestones too.
• Abilities With Style: From Dracula’s blood hunt to Rogue’s blink-flurry and Ymir’s freezing nova, each unit has a defining kit.
• Roguelite Loop: 3 lives, escalating floors, gold rewards, occasional loot drops, and run records saved locally.
• Satisfying Juice: Damage numbers, glow/border highlights, blood bursts, lighting, and smooth tweened movement.

How to Play

• Drag heroes from your roster/bench onto the grid.
• Equip items by dragging components onto a hero. Valid pairs auto-merge into completed items.
• Press Space to start the round.
• Win the floor to earn gold, loot, and augments at milestones. Lose all lives and your run ends (your record is saved).
