How to Survive the Night in 20 Minutes Till Dawn, a Free Game on Epic Store
A thrilling top-down shooter with pixel art and roguelike elements
If you are looking for a fun and challenging game to play during the holidays, you might want to check out 20 Minutes Till Dawn, a free game on the Epic Games Store. This game is a top-down shooter with pixel art and roguelike elements, where you have to survive the night in a forest full of monsters. Here are some reasons why you should give it a try:
- The gameplay is fast and furious: You play as a girl who has a gun and a special power, and you have to fight your way through waves of enemies that get more and more aggressive. You have only 20 minutes until dawn, when the monsters will disappear. You can collect XP from each kill and level up, unlocking new skills and upgrades. You can also find and use different weapons and items, such as grenades, mines, turrets, and pets. The game is inspired by the indie hit Vampire Survivors, but with more control and variety.
- The graphics are simple but stylish: The game uses a four-color pixel art style that creates a retro and spooky atmosphere. The game is easy to follow, as you can distinguish the different types of monsters and bullets. The game also features boss fights that test your skills and strategies. The game has a lot of charm and personality, as each girl has a different appearance and power, such as teleportation, invisibility, or summoning.
- The replay value is high: The game is different every time you play, as the map, enemies, weapons, and items are randomly generated. The game also has a lot of combinations of girls, guns, and upgrades that you can experiment with. You can try to beat your own score, or challenge your friends online. The game is addictive and satisfying, as you can feel yourself becoming more powerful and efficient. The game is also short and sweet, as each run lasts only 20 minutes.
The game is not perfect, though. It can get repetitive and frustrating, as some combinations are more effective than others, and some enemies are more annoying than others. The game also has a limited scope and depth, as it does not have a story, a progression system, or a variety of modes. The game is more of a prototype than a finished product, but it is still a lot of fun.
The game is developed by Emberpath, a small indie studio that is working on a more complex and polished version of the game, called Emberpath. The game is already on Steam, and it looks promising. If you like 20 Minutes Till Dawn, you might want to support the developer and follow their progress.
The game is free on the Epic Games Store until 11 AM US Eastern time tomorrow. You can claim it in the app or on the web, and keep it in your account forever. Don’t miss this opportunity to enjoy a thrilling and addictive game that will keep you on the edge of your seat. ***
