# Hexwarden > **Brew. Cast. Survive.** A top-down survival roguelike where you play as a witch holding her ground against endless waves of slimes. Collect magical fruits, brew powerful potions, and unleash devastating spells โ€” for as long as you can. Built with **Godot 4.6** as part of a university game engineering course at Hochschule Mannheim. ๐ŸŽฎ **[Play on itch.io](https://mik141.itch.io/hexwarden)** --- ## Gameplay Enemies swarm in from all sides. Your only weapons are the spells you brew. - Move with **WASD** - Slimes drop **fruits** when killed โ€” run over them to collect - Fill all **3 cauldron slots** to trigger a brew and unleash a spell - The fruit combination determines the spell - Earn XP from kills โ†’ **level up** โ†’ choose one of multiple Perks - Survive as long as possible --- ## Team **Jaro Winkelhausen** โ€” Game Development **Arthur David** โ€” Game Development **Meik Schรผrmann** โ€” Game Design, UI & Menu System --- ## About the Project Hexwarden was built for the *Game Engineering* course (Prof. Dr. Kai Eckert, Hochschule Mannheim, SS 2026). None of us had significant game development experience when we started โ€” this is a learning project made with a lot of trial, error, and genuine enthusiasm for the genre. Inspired by [Vampire Survivors](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1794680/Vampire_Survivors/). We're still actively developing it โ€” expect bugs, rough edges, and future updates. --- ## License This project was created for educational purposes.
