Roadmap Our Early Access Roadmap outlines the key additions and improvements we plan to make. These aim to deepen the game's story, expand your experience, and refine Ezechiel the Seventh's brutal journey. This roadmap marks the foundation of what's to come, but it's not set in stone. Your feedback will continue to shape Sancticide, and we’re committed to adapting the game based on your insights and experiences. About the Game Sancticide is a melee-focused TPP action game with rogue-lite elements set in the world of the biblical Apocalypse. Based on spatial and directional awareness, the combat system pays homage to the games of yore while manipulating the environment and physically interacting with it, expanding tactical possibilities.  The unique, twisted setting serves as a backdrop to the tale of Ezechiel - a fresh recruit to the Sin Collector Corps, haunted by remorse and guilt as he embarks on one of his most essential missions yet. Explore the unforgiving world in which death is not the end but merely another beginning.  The main storyline follows Ezechiel's trials and tribulations during his most demanding assignment yet. At the same time, the sidequest presents the day-to-day life of an officer serving Them at The Top.  Explore and learn the rules governing the world of the biblical Apocalypse, which is filled with agony, suffering, struggle, and a glimmer of hope and humanity in the least expected places. Dynamic Dueling in the End Times : dive into battles that blend old-school arena fighter intensity with modern third-person action mechanics fueled by the chaos of the biblical end times. Strategic Chaos : use the scorched remnants of the world to your advantage—slam enemies into hellish hazards, crush them with debris, and reshape the battlefield to survive. Heavenly Arsenal: Wield sacred melee weapons, unholy ranged gear, and the divine power of 'Purple' to craft a combat style worthy of a Sin Collector in the apocalypse. Build the character best suited to your playstyle by experimenting with various skills and abilities and customizing the weapons. Wield the Purple Powers , a divine force that allows: Kinetic manipulation of objects and enemies. Passive enhancements to boost your survivability. Active abilities to alter time, perception, or devastate foes. Together, they serve as an essential and helpful tool to make or break a fight. Just like in a game of chess , each enemy unit looks and feels unique enough for the player to quickly determine its capabilities, threat level, movement style, and weak points. Battle against various foes with distinct appearances, movement styles, and weaknesses. Encounter Sinners and Debtors , mortals marked for divine judgment, and outwit or overpower Proselytes - fanatical minions of Them at The Top. The idea of Kosherness assumes that all items and beings belong to one of two categories: Kosher (acceptable for Them at The Top) or unkosher (unacceptable).  This influences not only the flow of sidequests in Sancticide but also issues such as relations between enemy units, Ezechiel, and NPCs, the choice of equipment and player progression mechanics closely related to collecting and reforging unKosher items, as well as the access to certain areas. Death in Sancticide is never a simple punishment. It allows the player to better understand the persistent world's rules and adjust their approach with each run. Each defeat is a chance to strengthen yourself, refine your strategy, and explore the mysteries of the stalled Apocalypse. This Steam Early Access game is currently not a finished game and may or may not change significantly over the course of development.
