Fans of co-op dungeon crawlers and PC modders
Worth noticing
Mod uploads are limited to files produced by the bundled devkit, which the site says checks each upload.

Field notes

The project describes its engine as a from-scratch 64-bit Windows and Linux build with Vulkan rendering, rather than an emulator. Its bundled devkit packages mods for sharing, while uploads are restricted to files the devkit produces. Online play includes regular and one-life Hardcore heroes, with fallen Hardcore characters recorded in a public Hall of the Fallen.
