# 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 — for as long as you can.
|
|
|

Built with **Godot 4.6** as part of a university game engineering course at Hochschule Mannheim.

## Gameplay
|
|
|
|
Enemies swarm in from all sides. Your only weapons are the spells you brew.
|
|
|
|
- Move with **WASD**
|
|
- Slimes drop **fruits** when killed — 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 → **level up** → choose one of multiple Perks
|
|
- Survive as long as possible

## 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 — 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 — expect bugs, rough edges, and future updates.
