You Only Get One Torch.

Torch Quest is a Twin-Stick Shooter-ish Dungeon Crawler with emphasis on risk/reward where you only get one torch and one hitpoint.

Explore the procedurally generated dungeons, collect loot and avoid/kill enemies. The torch only lasts for a couple of minutes and once it burns out everything will go pitch black; make sure you return to the dungeon entrance before this happens! Will you successfully escape with the loot or will you die on your way back?

Use WASD to move and the arrow keys to shoot fireballs. Shooting fireballs will drain a small amount of your torch's life, so don't overdo it.

Torch Quest was made in Game Maker. Art assets were made with GIMP, and sound effects were made with FamiTracker.
