Caduceus
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Hermes, please restore rainwater to the world.
Caduceus is a 3D first person shooter inspired by ancient Greek mythology. The player wields the legendary Caduceus and uses it to fire at enemies that loom around a procedurally generated dungeon. Do your best to guide Hermes through this mysterious area, fighting off foes through both melee and ranged attacks.
Caduceus was created by a 34-person team at the University of Michigan's WolverineSoft Studio, a semester-long voluntary student games studio. This project was in development from January 19th, 2021, to April 18th, 2021. Read more about WolverineSoft here.

Great wallpapers very much and I wish you good luck My greetings myegy games
Hii, I've made a video about the game and wanted to share some feedback about it, hopefully it is useful to you ^^
-The concept of the game is quite interesting.-Visually the game needs some work to make it feel a little bit more cohesive.
-The gameplay mechanics are good but they need some work as they actually feel a little bit glitchy.
-There are some game breaking bugs like the one that happend to me on the video, that ended up blocking the entrance to the first level.
Hopefully this is useful to you :D, also if you could subscribe that would help me a lot :)
Regards
Thank you for your feedback! I am hoping to make bug fixes to the game in the coming days, and will update the builds accordingly. Your video is very helpful! :)
Awesome, you are welcome ^^
