I Am Dungeon – My contest entry for the GMTK Game Jam 2023
Category:
Unreal
DATE:
You are an AI created by a mad scientist who is hellbent on ruling the world (although he is a pretty chill guy to be with, not going to lie). Unfortunately, some random hero has decided that he has too much free time on his hands, and is now trying to destroy the dungeon you and the mad scientist created. Use whatever robots and props you have at your disposal to hold off the hero, no matter how many tries he takes, no matter how many abilities he gains, and no matter how high his statistics rise.
***
As the hero makes his ascent, place robots in his way that will seek out and destroy the hero. Take manual control of the robots to get into the combat yourself, piloting robots from the safety of your terminal while trying to bring the hero down. However, be warned! The hero will not give up so easily! After each run, the hero's health, armour, and damage will increase, and the hero will gain a new trait. Meanwhile, you (the dungeon AI) need to expand your arsenal of robots and props to overwhelm the hero, no matter what combination of traits the hero comes up with. How long can you hold the hero off?
I made I AM DUNGEON for the GMTK Game Jam 2023. This was my first Game Jam, so I think my effort turned out decent.
