I created a Wolf3D type engine and added RPG elements. This is a simple dungeon crawler. The dungeon is procedurally generated using the name you type in during the intro as a seed.

Made from completely from scratch using opengl for graphics + FMOD for sound.

Only pre-existing code was a small module that handles the loading and playing of sounds. This was declared in a blog post before the contest started.

My take on the theme 'Alone' was that of a lone hero. But the hag in the intro brings the 'being alone' theme into the game in two additional ways.

Controls:

Movement -- Cursor Keys

Fire/Use -- Control

Select Item -- Number keys 1-7

Exit -- Escape.

The mouse can also be used with the inventory.

I've play tested it a little, to verify that everything works, and crudely balance the three player classes.

I hope you enjoy it! I've certainly enjoyed making it. :)
