Intriguing, simple little game. I feel like some more colours could help with this, but the basis of this game is fun in it's simplicity. I think this should be built upon sometime, since it seems to have something here that could be pretty interesting to explore with a larger scope :).

Strangely addictive. This game looks very simple on the surface, but it's the little touches that really make it shine. There isn't anything particularly revolutionary here, but the graphics are consistent, the sound design is solid, and the controls are tight once you get used to the movement system. Well done!

I wandered around for a bit. Fun for a few minutes. I'm not sure if there's anything you can do besides wander around, collect coins, and go to other floors (there's no guide to controls).

I wish the windowed resolution wasn't so tiny, haha. But this is pretty neat!

Cool dungeon crawler. My highscore was 775 and floor 4 :D

One thing that was a bit annoying were the black thingies that would disappear and reappear. I at first didn't know they were bad and thought they were teleporters >.< And it was pretty much impossible to tell where one would appear unless you had seen it disappear. Some sort of warning system might be good, unless they don't kill you as they are appearing (I didn't test this theory though, and just tried to completely avoid them :) )

A solid game, rogue-like fun, though I feel the theme was underutilized. Also I liked the music, but the more I heard it, the more I kept imagining it like duck quacks.

This reminds me a little to the old Tower of Druaga from NES. But without those cryptic secrets.

I like it, as a base. I was pretty happy playing it, but after some time I was wondering if there was an objective.

I hope you do implement random dungeons, or else give them some variety, someday!

I love Game Maker! I like the audio, it added to the game. I couldn't figure out the purpose though. So after milling about for a while I gave up.

It looks pretty cryptic, like my own game, so I enjoy it a bit ;)

nice game, some color would have helped improved things, and more enemies would have been nice.

simple and fun, really hated those pink orcs that ran around at the speed of light, and the seeming random pits haha

It was okay but a bit empty.

Good game but the enemies walked around randomly,and it was easy to kill them. Also the teleporter appeared only in the corners of the level so it was kind of easy to find the next one

Ah! I remember Dungeons of Daggorath! I had that game for my CoCo 2 as a kid. :)
