The Equinox Hunt is an indie stealth rogue-lite with a top-down perspective in 3D.

Story
The story is inspired from on a real one.
It can happen to anyone at any time. Our character is going for an interview to get a nice job outside the town, the next thing he knows is that he's in a dark room, finding clues about this "Hunt" that happens on the night of the Equinox.
I could go deeper but for now, it's pretty simple at its core.
"A normal person that is being hunted in nature by a crazy cult."

Features

  • Victims, not assassins!
    In this stealth game, you're the victim, a normal person not some overpowered assassin.
    You can't go on a killing spree to find your way out. Since you're too weak to fight the enemies, you must use the surroundings against them.
  • World Persistence
    Your character can die at any time and his death will be permanent. The death of a character will give you new opportunities since your next character will be a bit different. You can affect the world depending on how you interacted with it, changes should be visible on the next character.
  • Smart Enemies
    We have standard enemies, but we're trying to push the genre with our hunters that will hunt you based on the tracks that you leave.
