Description from Steam STEAM

Long ago, a powerful witch created a dungeon with a terrifying curse, then retreated into its depths. Any who fall within its dark, stony halls are cursed with undeath. Before long, they become nothing but a mindless, shambling creature. However, the dungeon also brims with treasure, a siren call to adventurers from all over the land. The only way to survive the curse is to rely on Rescuers, a band of 'human recovery agents' charged with plunging into the depths to pull out fallen adventurers. You are one such rescuer, fresh on the job. But soon after your arrival, a curious request comes in. Recover the corpse of a Holy Maiden. The implication is clear. It must be a corpse, and nothing else. When your fellow Rescuer absconds with the advance payment, you're left to keep things running. Will you solve the mystery of the ancient witch? Find the Maiden, then decide her fate? Or will you abandon all sense of duty to indulge in your selfish desires? Only you can decide. Plunge into the depths of Witchhome's dungeon to rescue adventurers from the clutches of undeath while making a fortune in the process! Manage hunger and thirst as you descend. Should you fall, the curse of undeath will begin to take hold. Without the cleansing holy waters of the church, you may find yourself permanently lost. Time is ticking! The fallen in the dungeon cannot survive without your help forever. Take too long, and you may find nothing but shambling zombies awaiting you. A dungeon survival adventure with real-time stakes! Your belly grows empty, and your throat grows dry as you move through the deep. Push too far, and you might find yourself starving to death. Be too cautious, and you might find your potential clients lost to undeath! Real-time combat with a variety of tools! A top-down adventure that requires positioning and clever use of resources. Plant bombs, hurl fire, or just cut enemies down with your sword! Return your spoils to the surface to make a fortune! Puzzling dungeoneering! Dodge traps, light your way, and discover all manner of adventuring tools to help you traverse the treacherous depths of the dungeon!

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

The game is played in a third-person perspective as the player's ship flies across each stage. The player is free to accelerate, decelerate, and maneuver around to dodge obstacles and attack enemies, but the course for each stage is fixed. Rather than space, the player's ship flies over planetary surfaces and through tunnels. On the surface, the player flies over 3D heightmapped terrain, avoiding mountains and obstacles. In tunnels, the player avoids mechanical traps such as large moving doors and twisting passageways. The exit of the tunnel appears later on the surface of the same stage, so the player may miss a power-up (or a challenge) on the surface by taking a tunnel and vice versa. Some tunnels are optional and may contain bonus power-ups, while other tunnels are entered at dead ends on the surface. If the player fails to properly guide his ship into the tunnel at that point, his ship collides with the dead end terrain and explodes, costing a life. Colliding with enemies or terrain, being shot by enemies, and the passage of time all drain the ship's shields. When the shields reach zero, the ship explodes, a life is deducted from the player's stock, and play resumes at a checkpoint. Since there are very few shield refills in the game, the only way to avert this is by destroying enemies and ground installations; upon doing so the player's ship automatically absorbs their power to replenish its shields. Extra lives may be earned by collecting 1-ups and scoring large numbers of points. In addition, the player has a limited supply of continues, which place them back at the beginning of the current stage. When all lives and continues are exhausted, the game is over. Each game world is divided into four stages, for a total of 20 stages. Each stage contains multiple surface and tunnel areas. The fourth stage of each world ends with a fight against a boss, with the exception of the final world, in which the boss appears midway through the stage. By collecting power-ups, the player can change their weapon between five different types. Collecting a power-up of the type they already have upgrades their weapon level, with a maximum level of three. At higher levels the weapon fires more shots at a time. The player can also use bombs which send a wave of energy across the stage. This wave is strong enough to destroy most enemies and installations, and stops when it reaches the game's draw distance. The player starts each life with one bomb, and can collect more within the stages, maintaining a stock of up to three. The player can score additional points by performing aileron rolls, collecting point bonus items, and flying at faster speeds.
