Dragon Tiles

Dragon Tiles is a top-down action roguelite with bullet-hell survival elements. Rather than controlling one character with a set of skills, the player leads a group of heroes linked together in a snake-like chain. The heroes attack automatically as the formation moves, and the aim is to survive successive waves of enemies. The game is now released on Steam.

Each run alternates between short combat rounds and visits to a shop. Gold earned during play can be spent on new heroes, rerolling the shop’s offerings, buying items, or combining three copies of a hero into a higher star rank. Every hero has its own attack style and traits, and placing heroes with matching traits together activates synergy effects. Named synergy archetypes include Shooting, Chain, Field, Orbit and Beam, and heroes also carry elemental traits such as Physical, Fire, Poison, Ice and Electric, each with its own combat effects.

The round structure is kept short to reduce time between combat and shop phases, and the visual style is designed for readability and clear feedback. Different spending decisions in the shop lead to different team compositions and approaches from run to run.
