Rougelike

Overview & Objective

Welcome to the Runway! In this fashion-themed roguelike, you play as a Stylist (💃) navigating through a series of grids. Your mission is to survive the ultimate fashion disasters, clear the floor, and scale the ranks of the fashion world by stepping onto the stairs to advance to the next level.

How to Controls & Movement

• Click or Tap: To move, click or tap anywhere on the grid in the direction you want to walk.
• Smart Pathing: The game calculates your click and moves you 1 tile horizontally or vertically toward that location.
• Passing a Turn: If you try to walk into a boundary wall (🧱), you will not move, but the enemy turn will still trigger.

Understanding Your Stats

On the left side panel, you will see your Stylist Status:

• Confidence (HP): Starts at 100. If this drops to 0, it’s Social Ruin (Game Over).
• Floor: Your current level. The higher the floor, the tougher the fashion disasters become.
• Score: Earned by defeating poorly dressed enemies.

Combat & Gameplay Mechanics

1. Attacking Fashion Disasters

To attack an enemy, simply try to move directly into their tile.

• You will deal 10 to 25 style damage by criticizing their outfit.
• Defeating an enemy banishes them from the runway and adds to your Score.

2. The Enemy Turn

Every time you take a step or make an attack, the enemies will react:

• Chasing: If an enemy is within 4 tiles of you, they will actively move closer.
• Attacking: If an enemy is directly next to you (1 tile away), they will attack, causing you to lose Confidence.

3. Advancing to the Next Floor

Find the Stairs (🪜) to clear the floor.

• Stepping on the stairs immediately generates a harder floor layout.
• You will acquire better outfits, restoring +20 Confidence (up to your maximum of 100).

 Enemy Radar (The Rogue's Gallery)

As you climb floors, deadlier fashion crimes will spawn. You can track their remaining health on the right-hand Enemy Radar panel.

Enemy	Symbol	Threat Level (Base Damage)	Description
Socks & Sandals	🧦	Low (5 DMG)	A beginner mistake, easy to criticize.
Crocs (Sport Mode)	🐊	Moderate (8 DMG)	Aerodynamic but visually offensive.
Low-Rise Jeans	👖	High (12 DMG)	A terrifying blast from the past.
Neon Tracksuit	🧥	Dangerous (15 DMG)	Blindingly bright and hard to take down.
Fashion Police	👮	Deadly (20 DMG)	The ultimate boss of bad taste.

💡 Pro-Tips for Runway Survival

• Check the Runway Feed: Keep an eye on the text log on the left side to see exactly how much damage you are taking and dealing.
• Don't Get Cornered: Enemies will chase you if you get close. Try to fight them one-by-one rather than letting multiple fashion disasters surround you.
• Heal via Stairs: If your Confidence is dangerously low, prioritize making a run straight for the Stairs (🪜) to get that vital +20 health boost.
