Indie developer FatHatCat announced Runeward Online, a free-to-play online action RPG that blends bullet hell combat with cooperative dungeon crawling. Players become Runewards, adventurers who enter handcrafted dungeons with random configurations, either alone or in small parties. The game features an online lobby for trading equipment and chatting with other players. Equipment customization is central: equipped pets act as weapon modification parts, and runes provide class-redefining performance. Combining these with weapons like magic books or greatswords enables builds that can bend the game's rules. Runeward Online is targeting a free release on Steam and is currently in pre-alpha development.
