March 27th, 2024: Project mothballed for now, need to work on new tooling for level design. Will put it up when done. 

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨DANGER DANGER, THIS GAME IS IS CURRENTLY MOTHBALLED DANGER DANGER🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨


A dungeon crawler/Wizardry-like that I want to work on more. Originally developed in like four days. 

Here's a variety of features I'd like to add. 

  1.  Randomized Dungeons using Daedalus with different building sets with their own unique grammars/generation rules. 
  2.  Some sort of overworld/hub
  3.  Inventory-system (Works now!, SEPT 14TH - SEPT 20TH, 2023) 
  4.  Actual Rock-Paper-Scissors combat - some enemies will be more likely to use "paper" attack or "rock" defense-- you'll figure this out through trial and error. 
  5.  A save system 
  6.  A basic interact system and the events UI working properly. (Works now!, SEPT 14TH, 2023)
  7. Adding Autowalk (With some caveats!) 

Otherwise, this game is a closed loop, you can quit by hitting escape. The game automatically restarts after you hit 0 or less than 0 health. This game is distributed as a .zip right now with the game and resource files packed inside. It is named "LabyrinthBuild(version)."  Final version of the game will be on itch with no save system! Steam version will have saving and will be $5.00. 

Big thank you to the following: 

https://troglobytes.itch.io/daedalus - Dungeon Generator I originally told myself I wouldn't use because I was being hardheaded 
https://twitter.com/yantrack - for the tasty tunes a

big thanks to my day ones too, everyone who downloaded this while I worked on it and sent me in bugs. This includes Eric, Dog, Nate, Rask, Caribou, Abcdent. You guys rule and I can't do it without you guys. 


WASD to move, space to attack/open doors and I to investigate/search. Q/E to turn, TAB to open Inventory. P to pick things up.


Known bugs: 

No return to user that they have died 

No widescreen support (soon, after core features are in) 



Happy crawling! 


JUST AS A NOTE: ANY DONATIONS MADE WILL BE TOWARDS YOUR GOODWILL TO MY WORK, ANY DONATIONS ABOVE $5.00  AFTER SEPT 15TH, 2023 WILL NOT BE HONORED WITH A STEAM KEY OR REFUND IF PROJECT DOES NOT COMPLETE. (I have no idea if people have been donating out of kindness or expectation of a key, I really appreciate it I didn't expect this. There was not an offer like such made before, but I just wanna clear the air I hate confusion and since I didn't specify this at the start when I put the project up (SEPT 10TH, 2023) I don't want people to feel like I ran their bag, plus idk how to automate the list of emails I get back from Itch or if I'm allowed to use them in that manner and I don't wanna do anything naughty) 





In Progress: ITEM INTERACTS AND (UNLOCK DOOR WITH KEY, DRINK POTION, BURY BONES) BASIC MATERIAL COLORS ON WEAPONS AND ENEMY DROPS (steel makes the sword steel, bronze makes the blade bronze, you name it.

INSTANTIATED ITEM PERSISTENCE WORKS NOW. ITEM AUTHORING IN PROGRESS. Items can be equipped and unequipped. Inventory UI still needs some juice with sounds. Item dropping still needs work.  Item Epithet and Details update in inventory now too. - SEPT 17TH, 2023 LABYRINTHBUILD v 0.293

Inventory updated by player inventory changes instead of game-manager references for testing purposes. Object persistence added, when something is taken out a crate or chest or off the floor it disappears and is dereferenced from the container which held it before. Will make sure this actually works on an instance basis instead of reference as I have a sneaking feeling this will come and bite me in the ass when players go between scenes... We shall see...  - SEPT 16TH, 2023 LABYRINTHBUILD v 0.292

Inventory actually updates every time you open it, no more dummy objects and now clears the name/stat list - SEPT 16TH, 2023 LABYRINTHBUILD v 0.291

HOTFIX FOR LABRYRINTHBUILD2: Fixed directional raycast check to prevent player from strafing through solid objects. Issue was that the intended position was being calculated as the ray's endpoint, but it was still being fired out in the direction of the player instead of the normalized direction of the intended position. All good! SEPT 13TH 2023. LABYRINTHBUILD2.1 (Thank you Nate!)

DOORS AND COLLISION NOW WORK PROPERLY, SEPT 12TH 2023. LABYRINTHBUILD2.
