Manshin: Korean Shaman Action

A Korean shamanism action arcade game where you play as a mudang purifying folklore ghosts from across Korean tradition. Two original systems shape every run.

[Original Systems]
- Yin-Yang Balance: every weapon and passive carries a yang or yin alignment. Builds skewed to one side stack damage or defense bonuses; balanced taegeuk builds unlock unique synergies.
- Ritual Gauge: kills fill the gauge. Activating purifies the screen and triggers the chosen character's signature ult - 18 characters with 18 distinct ult behaviors (guaranteed crits, mass freeze, 3x damage window, magnet drop, and more).

[Core Loop]
- Auto-attacks: 13 traditional Korean ritual tools fire on their own - the bell, talisman, ritual knife, fan, incense burner, bow and more.
- Evolution: max a weapon and pair it with the right passive to unlock evolved forms like Spirit Bell, Guardian Knife, and Heavenly Bow.
- Ritual Gauge: kills fill the gauge. Activating purifies the screen and triggers the chosen character's signature ult.
- 18 characters: Manshin, Baksu, Spirit Medium, Goddess, Heavenly King, and more. Each has a starting weapon and unique ult so every run plays differently.
- 11 stages: Abandoned Yard, Graveyard, Crossroads, Mountain Pass, Haunted House, Shrine, Underworld Road, Dragon Palace. Korean folkloric atmosphere throughout.
