Task Bar Dungeons

A tiny party of heroes marches across your taskbar
and fights on its own — while you work, study or browse.

THE GAME

Your taskbar is the dungeon.

Task Bar Dungeons runs as a thin strip above the Windows taskbar. Your three heroes walk, fight and loot right there — under your browser, your documents, your other games. Nothing to alt-tab into.

Open the full window only when you want to make a decision: swap a hero, equip a drop, spend gold on a new specialization, pick the next stage. Then let them march again.

  • 3heroes in the party
  • 6heroes to choose from, two specializations each
  • 30stages across three acts, one boss per act
  • 0clicks needed to keep the fight going
Concept: the party walks along a moonlit ruined abbey bridge in a strip the height of the taskbar.
TBD
Layout concept — not a screenshot. Interface in development.

THE PARTY

Six heroes. Three seats.

Front, middle and back line. Every hero has two specializations that change their weapon, their attacks and their role — so the same six faces make a lot of different parties.

Mara, a knight in blue-and-steel plate with a tower shield.

Mara

Guardian · front line

Shield up, jaw set. If something wants your mage, it goes through her first.

Sera, a fire mage in crimson robes with a ring of flame.

Sera

Fire mage · back line

Sets the whole wave burning and smiles about it. Elemental paths change what she summons.

Rook, a hooded ranger aiming a crossbow.

Rook

Hunter · ranged

Picks enemies apart from the back, one bolt per problem. Quiet. Reliable. Never misses twice.

Reyna, a red-haired mercenary with twin daggers.

Reyna

Swift mercenary · melee

Kunai from a distance or daggers up close — her specialization decides. Fast, loud, expensive.

Noxa, a dark elf sorceress holding a sphere of violet magic.

Noxa

Dark elf · curses & support

Weakens what Mara holds and heals what Sera scorches. The party survives because she says so.

Varg, a huge grey werewolf baring his teeth.

Varg

Werewolf · brawler

Not a pet. A teammate with more teeth than the rest of the party combined.

Sera, Mara and Rook fight through a ruined graveyard under a dead king's throne.

PROGRESSION

Bring the loot back to the Blacksmith.

Loot & rarities

Weapons, armor and jewelry drop from every wave. Compare, equip, upgrade the good pieces, salvage the rest into materials.

Specializations

Spend gold to switch a hero's path. Talent progress on each path is kept — experiment without losing anything.

Seven haunted places

Dead forest, plague cemetery, ruined abbey, burning mine, flooded necropolis, frozen gorge and the Citadel of the Abyss.

Act bosses

Three acts, three bosses. The Bell Warden is only the first thing that will look down at your party.
