Ludum Dare 40 - In Temperance Ruin

I've done a couple of Ludum Dares before, but mostly by myself. Does anyone want to join forces and make a strange game with me in the upcoming LD, this weekend?

EDIT: Game is available here.

I have made these games in the past:

Okay, I'm going by myself, but I've got a kicking idea for the game jam. Further bulletins as events warrant.

Theme is "The more you have, the worse it is", so I'm working on a dungeon crawl where the dungeon becomes tougher as you pick up treasure.

UI is in place, mostly. You can roam the dungeon and generate text popups.

Looking good!

Combat exists now!

When you run out of health, you don't die; instead, you take damage to one of your stats, making combat more difficult. The game is over if any of these stats reach 0.

Game is released! Go here to play it. Bring graph paper if you're hardcore, or you can draw on the map templates I added.

Whoops I played this until 1:30 and still haven't beaten it. It's Good.

Are there more than 61 coins collectable in the dungeon?

There are, I believe, 71 coins to collect: 52 around the dungeon, and 19 from beating each monster the first time.

Thanks for playing my game! I've been working on the game a lot, especially over the weekend, and some pretty big changes are going live tonight.

I changed the game to be proper 3D so it would be easier to explore and navigate without a map.

Before:



After:



You can also name your character, save / load games and visit a couple of healing fountains in the dungeon.

It's rare I see a First-Person Dungeon Crawler come out of Ludum Dare. Pretty nifty!

I very much appreciate the use of full 3D; the smooth movement transitions definitely help with navigating, and making sense of the space!

Oh right, I forgot about it but I made complete maps of every level, I should upload those some time.

Oooooh, this is pretty impressive

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

I plan on making a fully-fledged, fully-3D dungeon crawling rpg some day.
