THE CRYPT BECKONS

In the realm of Dankcrypt, a foreboding darkness has shrouded the land, casting an eternal shadow upon its inhabitants. Plunge into a treacherous world where ancient evils and malevolent forces reign supreme. 

Forgotten ruins and decrepit crypts lay scattered, holding secrets that whisper of a forgotten era. The land is plagued by sinister creatures, twisted abominations born from the darkest recesses of the human psyche. Their haunting presence instills fear and despair in the hearts of even the bravest souls.

Unraveling the mysteries of this twisted world will require unwavering determination, as well as a willingness to confront the darkest aspects of one's own soul. Prepare to delve into the depths of Dankcrypt, where the line between light and darkness blurs, and survival is not guaranteed.

This game is in active development. Currently, only DMG is available as development is primarily taking place on MacOS.

What's a .dmg file?

It's a disk image file for MacOS. I primarily develop on a Mac system so, so right now I only have Mac binaries built. 

Ah, I see! I was looking for .apks and was very curious about that one
