About
Abandoned Archive is a uniquely crafted, fast-paced, spellcasting roguelike. Set in an archive that has been long forgotten and sealed away, the player must venture deep below ground to uncover the dark secrets tucked away.
Discover the many schools of magic, and utilise their spells to fight your way down the tower you are sealed in. Battle with anything from lightning and air to gravity and time. Becoming powerful requires you to synergise your spells by carefully choosing upgrades and collecting rare relics that offer passive effects to be combined with your finest abilities.
When one day you find yourself sealed in a tower, a strange, sentient Orb proposes a deal. With Oblome the Orbite, who claims to be one with science, you forge onwards in an attempt to escape your imprisonment and find the city of Orbites. Tied to your pact, you must protect Oblome at any cost if any danger arises, and in turn, he will protect you. There is definitely something stowed away, some kind of synthetic horror at the base of this archive. Will you delve deep and decipher the mysteries? Or will you simply succumb to your surroundings?
Set in the country of Gratissia in the tower named “Turrim”, Abandoned Archive has the player exploring fragments of a species’ past, floor by floor. With an exiled ex-scientist as your guide and protector, there seems to just be many burning questions, with answers hiding in the cracks of the archive.

"This game sucks"
fun concept, horrible and i mean genuinely god awful boss design, most of their attacks dont fit their themes and unlike literally every other rouge like out there, they have no pattern or even familiarity when replaying against the same bosses. I love vedal but this game needs some serious refinement and shouldnt have been released in this state
For what most assumed a joke game, it's pretty good. Despite the dev being known for something completely different it has no real connections and can stand as a good product as itself. I'll admit I am not the biggest fan of rouge-likes leading to my low playtime, but that is a product of me being addicted to a different.
that's crazy
Other than a few spells being mostly impractical, it's pretty good!
10/10 would wishlist
A great rogue like game that has an addictive loop of experimental spell casting gameplay! It feels great to try new spells and even better to live long enough to watch them level up to the max. Can't wait to see where this game goes!! The bosses are strong and encourage honing your skills and exploring each level to collect health, powers and find secrets before taking them on.
