Roguelite RPG Templates

Create roguelite rpg games with Summer Engine. Get inspired by templates below, or start from scratch with AI.

A roguelite RPG marries the risk of a run-based roguelike with the lasting growth of an RPG. Each run can end in death, but you carry something forward: a meta-upgrade, a new unlock, a permanent stat. The pull is the loop of pushing a little further each time as both your skill and your character grow.

A template gives you that loop ready: a character with stats and abilities, procedurally arranged runs, in-run upgrades you pick as you go, permanent meta-progression between runs, and combat encounters. With Summer Engine, the AI game engine compatible with Godot 4, you build on it by describing it: ask for an upgrade that appears mid-run, a meta-unlock that adds a new starting item, an enemy that scales with depth, or a boss that drops a permanent reward, and the AI wires the run structure and progression with you while you play runs to tune the climb.
