OUTDATED INFORMATION. This is here for historical reasons!

We are looking for Testers! (not anymore)
Our first "playtesting-alpha-mashup" starts most likely sometime next week (the one starting May 23th). Interested in helping out? Send me a PM, or register at this forum, or even email me at joh [a t] dungeondeities.com . What are you waiting for?
---

Finally, the game that you've secretly wanted all this time, Dungeon Deities, approaches early alpha-status. But what is this game about?

Show your friends that you're the cleverest, and create the most fiendish traps and have the most dangerous monsters sure to kill all of them.



Then, when you're done, enter their dungeons, traverse their depths, navigate their difficult puzzles and traps, and finally, find their wealth and steal their most precious treasures: Their orbs, leaving them unable to use special attacks (such as shooting fireballs) in the midst of their own expeditions, or leaving them without their most protective spells.



And all this chaos, deeply intertwined with the Conflict of Red and Blue Kingdom -- steal the orbs of the other team, to make sure your own kingdom finally regains control of Violet Land! King Red/Queen Blue will be grateful for all your help!



In Dungeon Deities, you buy tiles or items and create and build rooms and dungeons in your webbrowser: There you plan the traps and try to keep your loot safe.



Download the client and traverse the dungeons of other players, battling enemies and solving puzzles to find their treasure.


Dungeon Deities is part Browser-game, part Dungeon crawler, the latter made with Acknex.

We've also uploaded a video (but the link is now removed :(), especially for you, because we love you. Keep in mind that this is early alpha, so lots of stuff missing. But you can clearly see it working here!

You can check out the project at IndieDB, or see our Twitter!


Feedback is, as always, much appreciated. Thanks!

Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.

Check out Dungeon Deities! It's amazing and will make you happy, successful and almost certainly more attractive! It might be true!

hmmm, it reminds me of an old darkbasic game called 8 towers. not multiplayer but ai owned towers and heros and basically would attack their tower to steal there money to pay for upgrades to keep your tower safe and build places in your town. it never got finished but seems like a similar concept only more puzzle based.

also my initial thought was that it sounds like the gameplay itself is a lot of work.

I do like the style though and it seems like there are some very innovative/interesting ideas at play, i will probably try it out to see what its like. it will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Looks pretty neat but why did you decide to split up the game into browser and regular game?
The quality of the video is not the best, so I could not really see what happened in the browser. Are there two editors, one in-game (first shot) and one on the webpage?
I like the transition between two rooms!

I think it's worth noting that this game is made with A6.

The two editors are both in-browser -- a room editor and a dungeon editor. The first screenshot just shows how the level looked in browser and how it looks in game.

But I'm not a part of the team or anything, just psychic laugh

@Error: Nice to finally see it here! Sorry about today. I was busier than usual and wasn't home until late. Really nice work laugh

Thanks for all your replies and comments so far! We love reading them, so keep 'em coming!

I'm not quite sure how you got that impression, but let me assure you that the game never feels like work. Creating rooms and dungeons is fun, as is coming up with puzzles. The several tiles and elements you can place in your dungeon have a certain flair of "collectables" in them. Especially since there's an option to buy "booster packs", like with most trading card games. Some tiles may not even be avaible for regular buying in the shop.

Why did you decide to split up the game into browser and regular game?


Good question! The reason now that we can see the game in action is that Dungeon creation is based on the many small rewards you get frequently: Mostly people dieing in your dungeon (there are also sad, "unnamed" heroes who only always die - not real players). This way, you get a bit of gold throughout the day. The advantage of having these things browser-based is then that you can easily check in on the status several times throughout the day (if you want - of course), and get to buy new stuff and add it to your dungeon, right then when you should be doing work wink

Dungeon exploring is a bit different from that since it is by it's very nature a bigger time commitment. You play these in one sitting, that obviously takes longer.
We feel that by splitting the two parts of the game up like this, we can do the different playstyles those parts tend to more justice!

Quote:

As Julz said (Cheers!), there's a Room- and a Dungeoneditor, and both are in the Browser. The little snippet in the first shot is from the browser-part. I haven't added a real shot of it, since the thing is currently in progress of being redesigned, and thus doesn't look as amazing as it will one day right now!

And yes, the dungeon-crawler-part is made with A6. So it's ancient by todays standards - still works very well, though. laugh

To the others, thank you very much for your positive replies and encouragment! We'll keep you updated.

We're looking for testers!

Also, please let me know if you with to test the game! We're looking for quite a few testers, and it's always good to have people with a bit of gamedesign-background. Simply send me a PM, or an email at joh [at] dungeondeities.com! You can also register at the forums, and post in the "testing" area (that also works without registering, if you still have questions).



EDIT: Forgot to mention this: If you want some cool special abilities in the game, or have neat ideas that you awnt for your dungeons, post about it! laugh
