The Leafbuds Are Rampaging!

The Leafbuds have decided to make the ultimate leaf pile, and for that they need the ultimate leaf! Help Maple Winters escape using her arsenal of items to administer wholesome chaos!

Leafbud Rampage is a Vampire Survivors/HoloCure-like game, from which it strongly draws inspiration. Waves of Leafbuds will appear and try to surround Maple and she must fend them off with a random assortment of items, many of which must be unlocked (see Unlocks menu for unlock criteria).

Levels are "endless" (Leafbuds will stop spawning at ~3 hours) and there is no win condition, just survive for as long as possible or until you want to end the run and start another.

This is the second game I've ever created, it's in a new engine, and I did it in only about 3-4 weeks. Expect some bugs, lack of polish, inconsistent UI choices, and maybe crashes, but fingers crossed I managed to fix the worst of the crashes.

Install instructions

Web version not expected to perform well!

The web version has inconsistent performance, especially on some levels and in late game. It is made available here as a demo of sorts prior to downloading the game.

To install just download the .zip file appropriate for your PC, unzip it, and run the executable.

On Windows you may see a blue warning window saying "Windows has protected your PC" because the app is unrecognized. You can click the "More Info" link in that window to show the "Run Anyway" button. Unfortunately the only way for me to get rid of that popup is to pay Microsoft $100-400 for a code signing certificate, and I don't think I'll be doing that.

If you wanna delete your save file (or edit it, I can't stop you I'm not a cop) then it can be found in your %APPDATA% folder.
