Furries, magical girls and slick hack ‘n’ slash combat blend promisingly together in the late 2000s inspired Break The Night

Rock Paper Shotgun · 11 hours ago

Break The Night is an early-stage hack-and-slash game combining magical-girl transformations, furry-adjacent character designs, roguelike elements and late-2000s aesthetics. Its demo, showcased at SAGExpo, centres on three roommates trapped between realities after boarding a mysterious train, offering promising combat foundations despite limited story and variety.

The combat includes one-button combos, launching and slamming attacks, and a card-based spin move that may underpin the roguelike progression system. Movement features dashing and well-timed jumps reminiscent of Celeste, while the deliberately 2000s-inspired designs give the game a distinctive identity; it is currently available to wishlist on Steam.
