You can add Super Dungeon Designer to the list of Kickstarter success stories as Squish Studios managed to raise funds for the project. Just a bit before the campaign ended, it crossed the $15,000 mark – and met the funding goal in the process.
Super Dungeon Designer is planned to launch on Switch in the future. As the title implies, you’ll be able to create your own dungeons with action adventure gameplay that can be experienced alone or with others. Then when you’re done, you can share them online.
Learn more about the project in the following overview:
Create multiple rooms in various sizes as you create your dungeon just the way you want it. Our user friendly drag and drop UI makes creating dungeons fun and easy! Upload your levels and play levels from other designers! Inspired by games like The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Maker.
Key Features
- Creating dungeons is easy! Players can add new rooms with a single click. To resize a room simply drag from the corners. Add doors to create room transitions with just a few clicks. Players can decorate their dungeons and add objects to make a unique layout and create intricate puzzles.
- Use the linking system to create puzzles and challenges! Link objects and enemies together to create logic that defines how puzzles are solved. For example: link an enemy to a closed door, now that door will open when that enemy is defeated!
- Link one object to many others to create unique events!
- Group objects together and they will only trigger what they are linked to when every object in the group is activated! For example: Group four unlit torches together and link them to a Closed Door. Now that Door will only open once all four torches are lit!
- Collectables can be scattered around your dungeon such as keys, gold, arrows, bombs, hearts and more. Place them on top of Chests or Enemies with a single click and those items will drop from them!
- The Frog Glove lets you eat small enemies, stun larger ones, and latch onto some objects so you can fly over pits!
- Dash Boots will help you clear 1 tile gaps and knock enemies to the side!
- Create Single or Multiplayer dungeons and play together with friends in local co-op and online!
- Enemies with unique characteristics are at your disposal. Blobs will wander aimlessly while Bats will chase the player if they get too close. Lizards will take aim and fire their bow at the player. Flames will give chase and light torches, and Warthogs will charge at the player when they are in sight.
- Create Custom Boss Fights using links! You can link from a Boss during different phases to create unique and challenging situations.
- Upload and download levels online from creators all over the world!
