I spent the weekend working on a game for LDJAM 37.
It’s called Smallest Dungeon :
It’s a fast paced roguelike where you mostly get to choose what loot you get.
You can get the game for free on itch.io.
The theme of the gamejam was “one room”, so there’s only a single room, but tons of enemies (actually 10, but their sizes are randomized). You get to lead a group of four adventurers as endless monster waves spawn in that Room of Doom.
Your characters will attack and move automatically, all you have to do is trigger their special powers, heal them, and most importantly, choose their loot to create your own build and hope to exit that doomed room!
Each game is different. There are 30 loot items to collect, 10 enemies to defeat, 4 songs to listen to, and some hidden stuff too!
Controls :
- Keyboard : 1,2,3,4 : hero powers and loot choices, 5 : potions
- XBox gamepad : A,B,X,Y : hero powers and loot choices, RT : potions
- Mouse : click on the hero powers and potions to use them, click on the loot cards to pick them.
Credits : I did everything (gamedesign, visuals, code, UI) on my own, and got some help from my bandmates for the music.
I hope you’ll like it!
