Dark Keep

THIS IS A DEMO/TEST FOR THE FULL GAME OUT SOON, LEAVE ANY BUGS OR FEEDBACK ISSUES IN THE COMMENTS BELOW: DARK KEEP is a first-person 1-bit ARPG set in a cursed fortress with four elemental realms. You begin in the Keep Courtyard hub and travel through color-coded portals to the Hollow Forest, Frost Wastes, Ember Desert, and Burning Hell. Each realm features open zones with terrain, ore and leather nodes to mine or gather, roaming enemies, vendor stations, crafting forges, side crypts, and a main dungeon that leads to a powerful boss. Clear the four realm bosses to confront the final Hell Lord, while managing a Diablo-inspired inventory, equipment doll, skill trees (Blade, Ranged, Magic, Hybrid), socketed gems, potions, gold, and a hearthstone that channels for 6 seconds (15-minute cooldown) to return you safely to the courtyard.

Move and look with WASD and the mouse. Left-click attacks with your current weapon; right-click blocks with a shield or casts a slotted spell. Use the hotbar (1–4 and Z–X–C–V) for weapons, skills, and potions—drag skills or items onto slots from the Skills or Inventory windows (I and T keys). Press F to interact with portals, shops, mines, and NPCs. Sprint with Shift, pause or close windows with Esc, and track progress on the minimap and quest HUD. Level up to spend attribute points (STR/DEX/VIT/ENE) and skill points, craft better gear from gathered materials, socket gems for bonuses, and push deeper into extended zones and floors. Death leaves a recoverable corpse with some of your gold; the Keep remembers everything.
