Compatible with your own tracks & USB dance pad!

<span class="bold">Crypt of the NecroDancer</span>, a musical roguelike dungeon crawler with GOG Galaxy integration for Windows and Mac OS X, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 33% launch discount.

Dance, dance, dance the night away. Dance the evil ghosts and skeletons into loot puree. Crypt of the NecroDancer is one of the weirdest games you will ever play, and not because it’s filled to the brim with sporks and quirky tweens. It's a rhythm-based roguelike that has you matching a song's beat to beat the crap out of baddies. It's a straightforward experience that sounds like one of the most innovative things in gaming, but it's not just a gimmick as underneath the notes and tunes you'll find a full-fledged roguelike with plenty of loot, replayability and challenge. Crypt of the NecroDancer let's you import your own music as well, so can you beat it on Through the Fire and Flames?

Practice at home, at work, or on the bus, with the two bonus soundtracks: the original Danny Baranowsky tracks, and Extended Soundtrack (in two remixed versions, by A_Rival and FamilyJules7X) all available in extreme FLAC, and optimal MP3!

For even more NecroDancer digital-swag, check out the extras pack with a behind-the-scenes Director's Cut video, super-high-res Dance Pad covers, and a bunch of other random stuff.




Got questions for the developers? You’re in luck - Ryan and Heather from Brace Yourself Games will be hanging out on the forums on Monday, August 17th, for a special Q&A session from 8 to 10pm GMT (10pm-12am CEST, 4-6pm EDT, 1-3pm PST) to answer all your pressing questions about the game, the life behind game development, or their favorite cat video of all time.





Unleash your killer dance moves in <span class="bold">Crypt of the NecroDancer</span> with GOG Galaxy support for Achievements and Leaderboards. So dance! Dance the dance of the NecroDancer DRM-free on GOG.com! The launch discount will last for one week, until Thursday, August 20, 12:59 PM GMT.

JudasIscariot: It's a good one to get used to how the various monsters move :) Once you get the hang of that you can try playing as Cadence, the main character of the game :)
Does the game have an inventory? Is there any kind of a save feature?

Hooray! ... It's about time, too. =P Bought. ;)

IronArcturus: Does the game have an inventory? Is there any kind of a save feature?
Yes, you have an inventory slot for one of each kind of item :)

The levels aren't all that long so saving while you are in a level is not a thing but once you unlock all 4 zones (you can do this with the Bard character even :) ) you can choose which zone you'd like to start in :)

I don't have "friends" who have the Mac version ;)

No inventory system, it saves what you unlocked but it doesn't save your in progress runs since there's only 4 areas made up of three levels a piece and you have a set limit on how long you can puts around in a level(this is done by the length of the song) not that the levels are really that long anyway. But once you have reached a new area that area becomes unlocked and you can always just jump back there.

Is there a rough time table for when the Linux version might show up?

This game has been on my radar for a while, excited to play it.
Posted August 13, 2015
Heard a lot of good praise for this title. However, it seems like something a wee bit too fast-paced for me. I like things with strategy intervals and non time limits coupled in.

So... just an interesting thing to observe, Necrodancer was in early access for about a year now. Now it's officially release and it already has 3 dlcs, which is technically day1 dlc then, isn't it? I'm a bit confused which way I can take that. Isn't release supposed to be the day where the game is feature complete and bugfixed?

The DLCs are soundtracks and extras. The game itself is feature-complete without them.

No native Linux version when there's one available, so I will pass for now. Nice looking game though.
