Umbra's Defiance

Umbra's Defiance is a resource collection, roguelike game where you play as the shadow of a Lich, the final boss of an epic dungeon. Every single day, you watch heroes upon heroes die in your hand. You have become overcome with guilt and separated from your corporeal form to set up a shop and help the heroes kill your physical body.

We are a complete newbie (except for Locke) in Game Jams. Our two main goals are:

1. Fail and learn - there will be lots of mistakes and bugs which are all within our expectations, what we need to do is not let this kill our will but rather strengthen us and grow us to be even a better game dev/artist.
2. Release a game - to be able to release a game and not give up halfway (even if there will be a lot of insects).
3. Connect with like-minded people who will be a great resource and friends for the future.
