Hello Dungeon Cleaners,

With a bit of delay, we are here for another major update!

We are very proud to conclude Phase I of our development: the core gameplay is over! Win/lose logic is done:

  • Get in a level and clean

  • Don't get killed

  • Get out with all your alive mates otherwise they die (by your fault)

  • Get out before the end of the timer

Also, a big new feature is the integration of the elevator directly into the dungeon: no lag, better immersion, no starting in a random tutorial. Players will spawn directly into the dungeon as if the elevator has always been there. Thanks to @guiiik, this has been made possible.

What's coming next?

We will start Phase II of the development of Dungeon Cleaners. We are going to work on a medium-term timeline on monster behaviour, and in the long run, we are going to work on progression. @jg has already created a POC for an evolution in the gameplay to add more variety and challenge in the long run. We will keep adding more new items and characters in the dungeons, like the Vending Machine Man, who will sell random cans directly inside the corridors.
