Features

Key changes from Pixel Dungeon mechanics:

• It's easier when starting out and for casual playing.
• It's big: levels are on average 4 times larger. More tiles, more textures, more MOBs... more stuff.
• Carry more: your inventory is increased to reflect the larger world.
• More hero classes for varying gameplay styles: play as Technoprancer or Pepe the Frog.
• More focus on exploring levels to their fullest.
• More food, less hunger: start with more food. MOBs have a chance of dropping food.
• Soulforging system developed for item upgrades and repairs.
• Updated status pane to display Gold and Souls.
• Firearms system implemented.
• There have also been a plethora of other code changes, too numerous to list here. Refer to the git commit history for details.

It has elements from the Dark Souls series: soul collecting, campfires for resting and upgrades.

• Vanquish foes and collect their souls.
• Spend souls on upgrades.
• Explore and return to the safety of the campfire.

Other neat stuff:

• All new custom Hero Classes to play!
• Technoprancer, for you gun-toting techheads.
• Pepe the Frog, for your meme-loving freaks.

• Drugs: find and consume drugs, to your benefit or detriment... responsibly!
• Chemicals: a whole new class adding good and bad affects for you pill-popping, steroid-injecting psychonauts.

• Guns: when blades and magic fail, shoot them in the face.

Getting Started

Tips:

• Rest at campfires often.
• Repair your stuff: ensure your equipment is functioning optimally by repairing them at the Soulforge.
• Enable your second quickslot, found in the Settings, in-game only.
• Take time to craft and upgrade your items. Spend souls at the Soulforge wisely: upgrade better, costlier items using Scrolls of Upgrade instead.
• Shops are found on all even-numbered levels, except for those with bosses.
• Buy a Gold Ankh as soon as you can afford it, to cheat death. You will lose all non-equipped items on dying.
• Use your firearms wisely: the noise alerts MOBs and the melee damage from pistol-whipping isn't great. Search for ammunition throughout the levels.
• Smoke 'em if you got 'em: smoke some Wannabliss--it could provide insight about the secrets of a level.
• Remember the basics, people: if you're on fire, why not step on some water?
• Don't play it like Pixel Dungeon: this is Dixel Pungeon.
