Das sagt der Entwickler:
“With Source of Madness we wanted to make a roguelite that does more than simply rearrange level layouts and enemy combinations, but rather creates all new unholy beasts to face off against in each playthrough,” said Per Fornander, CEO at Carry Castle. “We knew we were opening Pandora’s box by unleashing so many permutations of machine learning AI monstrosities, but thanks to our audience of Early Access players, we were able to ensure that this multi platform launch is as polished as can be.”

Das sagen die Beteiligten:
“There are plenty of roguelites that alter their level design every time you play, but Source of Madness takes things one step further by altering the monsters you encounter,” said Per Fornander, Co-Founder at Carry Castle. “These twisted monstrosities are created by an AI, ensuring that even we are finding new abominations to face off against. The billions of possible monstrous forms feels cosmically overwhelming, which fits the tone of Source of Madness’ Lovecraftian horror.”
“Source of Madness is among the moodiest, most intriguing roguelites we’ve seen,” said Dieter Schoeller, Head of Publishing at Thunderful Publishing. “We instantly fell in love with its gothic art style, endless array of monsters, and unique RPG-inspired character building. It’s already a great time, and we’re sure it will only get better thanks to the feedback by Early Access adopters.”

Teaser-Trailer veröffentlicht
Entwickler Carry Castle und Thunderful Publishing haben einen neuen Trailer zu ihrem Roguelite Source of Madness veröffentlicht. Das Spiel wird noch in 2021 auf dem PC via Steam erscheinen.
Das sagen die Beteiligten:
“We’re really thrilled to partner with Guerilla Collective to show off more of the game as we get closer to launch later this year,” said Carry Castle CEO Per Fronander. “We not only wanted to showcase our unique AI-driven art style, with its gothic and Lovecraftian overtones; but we also used this opportunity to tease a little more of the arcane lore that Source of Madness will contain for those willing to explore it deeper…”
„Source of Madness combines so much of what we love about cosmic horror and video games into one unholy cocktail of roguelike adventuring,” said Thunderful Head of Publishing, Dieter Shoeller. “Its procedurally generated creatures and labyrinths make it utterly unpredictable and eerie, as you encounter machine learning concoctions that feel truly one of a kind.”
