Ichorous Kickstarter Announcement


Hey everyone!

It has been incredibly shocking seeing the reception to Ichorous, and we want to run with that! Almost 15k downloads and so much feedback! It was an awesome experience seeing people play the game in person at TooManyGames last June. It has cemented that this game could be something more.

That's why we've decided to launch a Kickstarter! The Kickstarter will be released alongside a major update that overhauls a significant portion of the gameplay, and we're excited to share more of the world in Ichorous!

The more of you that follow the Kickstarter, the more likely Kickstarter will be to push us to the masses!  SO PLEASE DO IT!

We're hard at work coming up with new creatures to fight, upgrades to find, and redesigns of characters that desperately need them! 

The Warlock has been the same since the original boss rush jam, and it's time for him to get a fresh coat of blood paint

He's a menace now!

Alongside the player, we have been redesigning the structure of the game to hold onto the feeling of fighting large creatures, while allowing for a more roguelike structure. We know the boss fights are in the DNA of Ichorous, so we wanted to make enemies that didn't feel mindless. The enemies you face will have unique movesets to keep them challenging and aggressive.


Alongside the blood offerings, there will be the addition of trinkets, items that make small changes to your character over time. These are meant to help expand your build and work in harmony with your offerings! As roguelike levels become integrated into Ichorous, offerings will be more spread out, so trinkets will allow you to develop your build between offerings.


Keep an eye out for more information! Monster Crate is working hard, and this is already shaping up to be the best version of Ichorous! Make sure to follow the Kickstarter, and our most consistent updates will come from Twitter!
