Game Title

  • INTO THE DUNGEON

Project Status

  • Implementation phase
  • Alpha candidate 0.1 available for testing. Feedback is welcome!

Synopsis

  • Dungeon Crawler
  • A living dungeon, ever shifting and aware.
  • Deep within waits an unimaginable treasure - but none who have dared to enter have ever returned.
  • You, the adventurer, will be lured by fortune and glory. The walls twist, the shadows stir, and ancient guardians awaken. Traps reset. The Labyrinth watches.
  • Can you navigate its treacherous corridors, outwit its guards and claim the treasure before it consumes you?
  • Or will you become just another lost soul, trapped for eternity?
  • Enter if you dare!

How To Play

  • You control an adventurere in a dungeon.
  • With the Joystick, your move forward or turn left and right.
  • When encountering one of the many things in the dungeon, the following actions can be used:
    • Button 4: Attack
    • Button 3: Interact (No you can't pet a slime)
    • Button 2: Heal (Even out of combat)
    • Button 1: Flee (25% chance on active enemy)
  • Your Attack is something special because on first press you make yourself ready to attack, and an attack-bar is opened. On second press, the cursor stops and its position on the bar defines the amount of damage. To deal the most damage you want to hit the middle of the bar.

  • All further details yet to be determined
