Echoes of Syntax is a retro-flavored arena roguelike where your magic comes from words.
Combine Nouns (projectile), Verbs (behavior), and Adjectives (element/effect) to create hundreds of spell variants — from Fiery Chasing Orbs to Icy Bouncing Mines.
Features
Word-crafting spells: mix Noun + Verb + Adjective
Fast wave-based combat with endless combos
One new card unlock after each wave
Simple, readable three-column word picker
Pixel-inspired UI, chiptune vibes, smooth camera
Boss music & a calm main menu theme
Progression
Start with a small deck of words, unlock a new one after each wave, and swap your build before diving back in. Find broken synergies and push for higher waves.
