I got the security prompt, after I changed that the game still doesn't load. Hangs on a screen saying BENEATH.

Couldn't load because security issues.

What OS are you running?

yngar 2014-04-29 15:59

I really like that auto-pathfinding

I couldn't get the Linux download to work (on Ubuntu 13.10) but I just downloaded the .jar (OSX download) and it ran.

Once I got it running, I really enjoyed playing! I'm a huge fan of roguelikes and this was good fun. My biggest gripe was just that if you clicked when you were already walking, you had to wait to get to your first click before you would go to the second click (I would expect it to interrupt the walking and take you to the new destination).

I would like to see a bit more variety, but since there was limited time I think that gets a pass. Great game!

thanks for the stuff explaining security issues - had that problem with so many games already and didn't get it. though the menu doesn't seem to work in the web version for me anyway

well done on the game though! i dived too recklessly :P

After security prompt I can't play, but I doesn't underscore it for this.

This is a really cool game, very in depth stats and item progression for a 72 hour game. I'm a big fan of this genre and the only way I could think of improving this is more diversified enemies and a basic soundtrack. Other than that great work!

Enjoyed this! nicely done path-finding and gear progression. I didn't find the turn based element have affect any of my player choices as i just went around clicking monsters. Maybe some more enemies could fix this.

Good work, a full roguelike in 72 hours!

Reminds me of pixel dungeon, if that's what you were going for? Really enjoyed it!

Nice game. Could use some music and more sound effects.

Good game, pretty basic, but that's expected for a game made in a short time. Graphics served their purpose, helped it create the mood. My only complaint is the lack of music. With just a bit of music (8-bit would especially fit the mood) the atmosphere would have been much better. None the less, good game, Impressive. :)

Pretty good game, simple and easy to play ;)

bubuiic 2014-04-30 10:32

I quite liked the game, a bit more variety would have been nice. Maybe just different colored slimes on later levels.

carrier_signal 2014-04-30 12:09

I loved a lot of this. Great job!

stepperz 2014-04-30 12:19

After playing pixel dungeon, yes very similar however i was hoping to implement a more puzzle based approach to the game eventually :)

l3dx 2014-04-30 17:44

Good job. Works great!

Nice dungeon! I really enjoyed playing this and it really reminded me Pixel Dungeon :-)

Very cool game here, i love this kind of games: inventory, RPG, etc. Great work :D

Not a huge fan of roguelikes, but still played this for quite a while because I got to keep my inventory upon death. Encountered one bug where the item icons in my backbag wouldn't match the items though (they were off by one I think). Liked the auto pathfinding, but I think using both the mouse (for long distances) and the keyboard (for single rooms) would've been easier for me. Too many small rooms and corridors for my tastes too.

Took a bit to get past the security, but the game was pretty fun. Having basic pathing for movement is handy.

kristof 2014-05-07 10:34

This is a really cool dungeon crawler! The only problem I had was, that I pressed Esc at one point (I wanted to close the inventory) and the game just returned to the menu screen and my progress was lost. Besides this frustration, the game was really fun.

mat4dor 2014-05-11 13:05

Great! Really liked it. A background music would be a great.

threef 2014-05-11 14:43

Oww... I also made roguelike, but I've spent too much time on 'not fun features'. Good game. :)

draklaw 2014-05-15 01:18

security prompt is a problem for larger audience, but fun game overall ;)
