Skill Swiper

It was just another day in your mundane life, but when you opened your eyes, you ended up in another world! The goddess that mistakenly sent you there has granted you a special ability to swipe the skills from the monsters you need to battle in this procedurally generated, never ending dungeon. How long will you survive?

Skill Swiper was created in 7 days as a submission to the 2024 7DRL Challenge.

(This is my first 7DRL and first game on itch! It's still incomplete, but it's a start!)

How to Play

Skills in Skill Swiper work like cards in a deck. When you use one, it gets exhausted. When the deck is empty, it reshuffles all exhausted skills back into the deck for you to redraw into your skill slots.

To use skills, a player needs to pay attention to how a skill will be triggered as shown in the bottom right corner.

There are 4 types of triggers:

• Bumping into an enemy
• Staying in range of the enemy (where range is indicated to the right of the skill in R1-3)
• An enemy entering into the range of a skill
• An enemy exiting the range of a skill

When the condition of a trigger is met, the skill for that slot is used automatically. Another important thing to remember is that the range indicated on the skill is the maximum range a skill can reach, including all of the closer ranges.

For example, R3 skill can be triggered when the conditions are met on tiles that are 1, 2, and 3 tiles away from the player.

To show more examples, an R2 skill for each slot would fire when:

• Bump: you bump into an enemy
• Staying in range: you move such that the enemy stays either 1 or 2 spaces from you
• Enter range: you move such that the enemy is now positioned 1 or 2 space from you
• Exit range: you move such that the enemy that was previously 2 tiles away from you is now 3 tiles away from you
