Hambone Alley

A bowling-flavored roguelite deckbuilder. Your deck is the rack of pins, and clearing it extends the frame, so chains can topple hundreds of pins.

A rack of pins mid-explosion in Hambone Alley, with the score and the pin minimap

Racks grow by a full row each frame, all the way to a single rack of 300 pins. A run takes 5 to 15 minutes, with no timers.

  • A pure simulation, with no physics engine: energy spreads from pin to pin, and the 3D lane is presentation only.
  • A headless balance simulator plays hundreds of runs in under a minute to tune the difficulty curve.
  • Taken through Steam Direct myself: the store page is live, with a free demo on Steam and itch.io.
