Damocles Gaze is a radically tight roguelite top-down shooter where every run takes 12 minutes. No matter how many times you die, no matter how good or bad you are, the run ends only after the 720 seconds went out.

During the last 90 seconds you will be faced with a boss depending on how far you got. Your final score is defined by how much damage you can inflict them in these 90 last seconds. The further you got, the higher your damage multiplier.

Choose your modifiers wisely, and change strategies when death becomes insistent.

Word of warning: the last boss, the queen of cups, may be deemed "sensible content" due to its, er, genital nature. It's pretty hard to reach, you'll have to get very good at the game before you see it, but yeah, thought we'd let you know just in case it's an issue for you.
