GRAVELORD, a boomer shooter that merges the frantic action of Doom and Quake with RPG-inspired systems. Launching later in 2024, the game brings fast-paced, gory chaos laced with macabre humor to fans old and new.
Meet Queedo the Gravedigger
Players step into the heavy boots of Queedo the Gravedigger, an oafishly strong yet dim-witted hero wielding the Total Uber Shovel. Armed with this absurd yet deadly weapon, Queedo fights hordes of dark minions while delivering snarky, funeral-themed one-liners that lighten the grim battlefield.
Tarot Cards and Strategy
A unique Tarot Card system sets GRAVELORD apart from its retro inspirations. Players unlock and combine cards to gain new powers, allowing for experimentation with different builds and play styles. This feature adds tactical depth to the otherwise frenzied combat loop.
