DUNGx64

 

Traverse the dungeon, kill enemies, collect items, make money, get stronger!

 

How to play

 

Select up to 3 characters, each with their own unique ability.

You move around the "lead" character, and the other characters follow.

The beating heart beats slowly if your characters are in good health, it beats fast if you are near death!

Collect hearts in the level to restore your characters resilience.

Characters can carry 5 items each.

Return to the shop to sell items and hand over gold.

Items indicate their gold worth.

Gold coins are worth 1.

Gold and items are converted into upgrades for your characters, at a rate of 2% for each stat.

 

Controls

 

Arrows move the character.

The first letter of the menu options is a shortcut to activate that menu item, or use the mouse.

Tab swaps to the next character, making that character the new "lead" character.

Backspace is instant-kill the selected character (debug key, it's an "attack", so it's funny when it misses)

Combat is automatic.
