BLACKMARKET

BLACKMARKET is a first-person roguelite room runner set in EDEN, a buried megastructure of numbered corridors, sodium light and poured concrete, stacked floor on floor with no sky in sight.

THE CORE LOOP
Each stretch is a string of rooms and a hard timer. You have a couple of minutes to reach each Saferoom, and less time per room the deeper you go: drop through the hatch, hear it slam shut above you and you can catch your breath. Then the doors open again.
Let the clock run out and something is sent to collect you.

MOVEMENT IS THE GAME
Slide: carry speed through low gaps, down stairs and under jammed shutters

Wall-kick: kick off walls mid-air and turn a fall into forward speed

Trimp: hit a ramp at speed and leave it airborne

Pound: slam down from height and bank the impact into momentum

Swim: wade, dash and mantle out of flooded halls

Vault and climb: mantle crates, ledges and catwalk rails without breaking stride

ONE RULE, ONE WAY OUT
EDEN is not empty.
There are no closets and no lockers. You can not hide within the walls of EDEN.

DEALS
Every Saferoom has a terminal: an old green CRT on a steel desk with three Deals on the screen. Take one. Each bends how you move for the rest of the run:
* Spring Heels: jump higher
* Greased Soles: slides carry further
* Spare Grip: one more wall-kick before you land
* Late Jumper: the floor forgives a bad jump
No two runs build the same body. Deals stack, and the halls get longer to match.

EARLY ACCESS
BLACKMARKET is being built in the open by a small studio in Osaka. The core loop is here now: the doors, the clock, Saferooms, movement, Deals, Contracts and the weekly shift. New regions, entities and Deals arrive through Early Access, shaped by how you play.
