2d Roguelike Loot Corruption
Make it a roguelike. Fill the empty enemy drop hook with pickups, then add upgrades that make you stronger. Then add the signature hook of The Last Forge: every upgrade raises your Corruption. More power, but more risk. Clear a room, choose a cursed reward, and feel the next fight change.

2D Roguelike: HUD & Meta
Quest 6 of 7 in the 2D Roguelike campaign.
Put the roguelike state on screen and make progress stick. Build a HUD CanvasLayer with health, dash and corruption bars that update from the systems you built. Add a gold and room-progress readout. Replace the death print with a real YOU DIED screen. Then earn and bank essence into a ConfigFile save so it survives closing the game. This is where the systems become a complete playable loop.
