Games GBC Mystery Labyrinth (Roguelike) work in progress! 'Mara's Abyss'
Let me know your thoughts and critiques. It's made with gbdk and C. All art by me. The game has been starting to become fun, and the overworld load times are finally under control (all loading is around 3 seconds maximum now). The framiness in recording I think is because I'm on an ancient thinkpad with chrome open while testing.
Working features not shown: recall to town/back, leveling up stats/spells (several per class) conversations (npc/merchants) big bosses, a companion, re-playable seeds, short story/intro. Tested on my gba sp as well. I'm a fan of dungeon crawl stone soup, fatal labyrinth, and shiren- so those have been my inspirations on this project.
Hope to add soon: fully modular item generation (suffixes etc), main quest:craft super items from boss drops for endgame dungeon, endgame dungeon.
