I think this would be a lot of fun with multiplayer, in some sort of collaborative game. It would also be fun as a competitive free-for-all, or a team-based competition. I would really enjoy such a game if you’d be willing to make it. (and if you don’t, do you mind if I do?)

I’m the developer of Dungeon Romp 4k. I agree that game lacks a certain lasting fun factor, and I was mostly going for technical merit to feel out the limits of 4k. The 3D walls actually weren’t terribly expensive, all things considered. I think they were worth the cost.

From a gameplay standpoint, I should shrink the minimap way down so it becomes a secondary navigational tool rather than the primary one. Unfortunately, I couldn’t fit enough other interesting things in the maze to justify it, so I blew the map up to make the game easy to parse.

The random maze generator was actually proportionally the most expensive. If I were going for pure fun factor, I should’ve dumped the mazes, hardcoded 10 floors or so, added in a basic item system and an endgame condition besides dying. 🙂

I’m working on a full version of Dungeon Romp that addresses these issues outside of the 4k limit. 🙂
