Perish

“A stylish, online co-op rogue-lite horde shooter in which dismal creatures roam Purgatory, a bleak ascending battle-platform in which players must slay thousands of lost souls to earn their safe passage to Elysium, the final resting ground of the Worthy.

“Balancing risk vs. rewards, ascending further upwards through Purgatory increases the difficulty and the amount of gold danake that you can accrue.  Dying will reset your progress and have you lose all the danake that you have accrued.  The trick of the game is to head back to Pantheon and bank all your gold danake as soon as the challenge get too hairy. “

Probably one of my favourite games ever, a long while ago I had made a bunch of cinemagraphs from my play through which you can find here.  The formatting is a bit pants now but some of the scenes are still cool. :)
