Information about the death system in "Dungeons of Desolation" and a status update.

Posted by on

When you die in "Dungeons of Desolation" you take part in a game of chance against Death himself. There are several results for dying and one of them is even good!

The below video shows the death system in action. The graphics are just place holders right now... It will look much prettier when completed!


"Dungeons of Desolation" is an RPG that will be released for XBLIG and computer being created by Paul Donald of OnlyLuck Interactive. Paul is attempting to create the game with no assistance. That means game design, artwork, programming, sound and music all completed by only one person.

It is too early to provide a release date, but about 75% of the programming is completed. New features added since the last gameplay video are:

- Usable items: Potions, Scrolls
- Animated the Player Character with basic movement and attacking animations
- Particle effect system added
- Permanently lit tiles
- Line of sight view
- Character creation system with two options: Rolling for stats or assigning them
- Saving and loading the game
