SpellWeave

Spell-chaining roguelite

SpellWeave is a pixel-art roguelite for PC built around arranging spells in a wand. You cast its slots from left to right, and each spell’s effect depends on the slots before it. Payloads deal damage, modifiers affect later spells, multicasts fire several payloads at once, and triggers recast the spells that follow them at the point of impact.

Reordering slots changes the result. For example, a triple cast followed by fork, giant, fireball, chain lightning and ice shard sends out three payloads, each split into three oversized projectiles. The game has more than 40 spells, with effects such as homing, piercing, ricochets, lifesteal and critical hits. Flight-path modifiers can send spells orbiting around you, fanning outward or curving back through enemies. Summons, including melee thralls, spirit archers and hex familiars, also count as payloads, so they can be multiplied by other spells.
