"Sanguine Echoes is a gothic action-roguelite built around one inversion: your healing comes from attacking, not retreating. Landed hits convert damage you took back into
health, poise-break windows reward reading timing, and every hitbox is frame-accurate — so mastery shows, not stats. Three hand-crafted levels, three multi-phase bosses, and a
full roguelite loop (Eldritch Echoes + Blood Gem build choices) in a browser, no install."
