saebashi Founder of //commentout commented on the announcement, saying:

“Early Access was important for the development of TOKOYO: The Tower of Perpetuity as player feedback influenced many of our design decisions. I know Nintendo Switch players are ready to climb the tower alongside their Steam brethren and threaten some of our regulars atop the leaderboards!”

You find yourself trapped in a mysterious tower—one that transforms its very structure every 24 hours.

The legacy of your epic struggle shall be carved into the hearts of those who challenge you like an epitaph. Surpass countless poor fallen souls and make your way to the heretofore unseen top!

Key Features

An Auto-Generated Dungeon that Changes Daily – This 2D action game is set in TOKOYO—the Tower of Perpetuity—a constantly changing and devilishly deceptive auto-generated dungeon crawling tower with fiendish monsters and brutal traps. The Tower of Perpetuity is automatically regenerated by the game server every 24 hours (in real-world time), allowing for players around the world to take on the same dungeon each day, and for one day only. Different traps and gimmicks await you each day, and you must compete against other players while battling your way through. The dungeon contains various differing branches, offering a certain degree of free choice and randomization.

Light Social Elements – Social features utilizing the network have been implemented in the game, in which a gravestone will be placed where a player meets their end, appearing in other players’ games along with their “relics” and “last words.” Take advantage of the different special skills afforded to each character and compete with other players as you struggle to surpass the countless bodies of your less fortunate rivals and fight your way through the impregnable dungeon.

Character Customization (Only Available on Steam) – Freely edit and customize skins for your character which will then appear in the game. You can even add opening and ending stories and dialogue to your character to enhance their narratives and personality! Take on the role of your favorite character and dominate TOKOYO: Tower of Perpetuity!

Official Custom Characters Coming Soon! – We have collaborated with popular illustrators, streamers, and game designers to bring you custom characters that you can play alongside the five existing playable characters. We will be implementing them into the game at a later date so please stay tuned!
