Torchspine Games

Torchspine Games is a one-person game studio. Its first project is The Captive Spire, a twin-stick action RPG in development for Windows and macOS.

The Captive Spire

The Captive Spire is an action RPG dungeon crawl built around twin-stick combat, with shifting camera views - over-the-shoulder to top-down - across multiple levels of fast-action bullet hell.

Pick a captive and take the spire one tier at a time. Fast twin-stick action meets a camera that can shift among over-the-shoulder, isometric, top-down perspective, and orthographic views, always providing a clear view of the action.
