Post jam version out now! Some bugs still remain in the web version, but it functions much better now! Still recommended to use the download version over the web version though.

A short game where you play as the boss of the first dungeon trying to kill all the heroes who intrude into it. Experiment with many potential dungeon layouts in order to prove that even the first boss can take out a hero if the dungeon is tricky enough!

Tiles:

  • Ground - These cobbled stones make up the floor of your dungeon. Use these to define the expanse of your dungeon, where all other tiles may be placed. You can't place any other tiles without placing ground in that location first. 
  • Door - The trapdoor that the heroes will use to enter your dungeon. You must place it so that it is possible to reach the boss from here, and you can't forego placing it, so plan wisely!
  • Pit - These deep, dark pits will stop any hero from crossing them, but will still allow your minions' projectiles to pass over.
  • Boss - This big red crystal is you! You don't have great self defense, so weaken or kill the heroes before they reach you, or it could be game over! Of course, don't forget to put yourself in the dungeon. It wouldn't be a dungeon without its boss!
  • Minions - These stationary creatures will fire small crystals at any heroes they see. They don't have much health, though, so they can be defeated rather easily on their own.
  • Energy - This isn't something you place in your dungeon, but it will affect how you organize things. Both pits and minions will consume energy in addition to having a limited stock. If you run out of energy, you can't place any more of either of these things until you get rid of some. Make sure to keep track of the purple energy bar at the top left of the screen!

All tiles have a limited stock, as seen just below their location on the menu, so make sure to keep track!

Controls:

  • Left Click to select building pieces
  • Right click to erase building pieces(wont work on ground tiles unless holding a ground tile)
  • Press the start button to see how your dungeon fares against the pesky hero trying to defeat you!
