Play as the famous bearded caver who had all his equipment taken! Making it difficult to help ill- equipped treasure-seekers while searching for the actual treasure for the local museum. Help Spelunker from the cave system itself, as the real challenge is the hazards found in the cave. Avoid slipping and falling into holes, getting hit by stones, getting super cooled, running out of batteries or being pushed by in by foreign cavers. Since you lost most of your climbing gear, navigating the caves will be quite a challenge. In the beginning you have to make due with just running, jumping and climbing up and down narrow passages. On your way you will find bits of your gear, opening up new areas. The game consists of 4 cave systems to explore, an over-world and several smaller locations like towns and lone houses.
Roving in the Dark is heavily influenced by the limitations of 8-bit era games, with tiny pixel art graphics, a low colour palette and a low resolution. It does not have music in game, but 8-bit ambient sounds instead.

I would recommend this game for $5 or less. It's a short game and should be at that price point. Simple artwork and ambiance make for a nice atmosphere. The fall mechanics need to be tweaked because I shouldn't be losing half of my health from the equivalent of stepping from the sidewalk onto a road. Fun, but needs some work.
There are plenty of fun and playable metroidvania games out there, this isn't one of them: cheap deaths from collapsing platforms, falling objects that you can't see and having to repeat areas after dying again and again make this game far too annoying.
I think this game is overpriced for what it offers. Though I did buy it this sale for 1.80€ or something i just didn´t really enjoy it, but im sure someone else will. It just seems lackluster in general and the gameplay too simple. Love the idea and hate to give it thumbs down - would have given it a neutral if possible. Thx for making the game though.
Roving in the Dark
Very nice little game with peace gameplay not overloading with bang/bong/boom flashing/screaming stuff.
It looks retro/classic like Spelunky or Rick Dangerous and gameplay is also cool.
Good job!
I am really enjoying this game. It has some wonderfully crafted NES inspired graphics that utilise a great colour palette and the sounds are spot on for the era too.
The game revolves around rescuing treasure seekers and treasure in a dangerous cave network. Unlike some modern retro inspired titles, it is not scared to ramp up the difficulty, which is good.
Overall, an excellent game and I highly recommend it.
Great game. Very cool old scool graphics. You look around for people stuck in cave and look for parts, TNT to blast walls to get to other side and pick up batter packs so your flash light doesn't die on you. You also attach yourself to rope to get across platforms. Very much enoying the game and look forward to playing some more. Very relaxing vibe too. I recommend.
