In Dungeon Feeder, you must prevent looters from stealing your hard-earned gems by triggered traps at the right moment to kill them. A gem is stolen when a looter reaches the exit and the game is over when you run out of gems.
The current gameplay is a result of me getting too distracted during the jam. I only had two trap mechanics and AIs in so I turned it into this hectic button clickfest.
The "COMING SOON" button brings you to my original vision of the game. 4 rooms to take care of simultaneously (with a way lower spawning rate per room compared to the current gameplay). Also more traps and AI types for the enemies.
Fun little game. I like the idea that different traps don't work on different people. Might be worth linking to keystrokes as well to save time moving from trap to trap. Well donE!
I have always enjoys this sort of gameplay, and this does it rather well, if it is a bit limited by scale. It's fun while it lasts =) Although I will say that I'm pretty sure it becomes impossible after a short time, which could be fixed by a larger scale. (Which by the looks of the "coming soon", you have planned =D) On the whole, I like it. Well done!
Very nice, definitely easy to learn. Ya, it does become basically impossible after a while, but I still enjoyed it. I think this could be expanded quite well, its a very good idea.
Would also be well suited to mobile, with touch inputs and whatnot.
I like the idea of the triggering traps but it would have been nice to place the traps yourself, upgrade them or do something else apart from just frantically moving the mouse between the two buttons. Still a good start.
@boardtobits I thought about enabling hotkeys but I wanted to preserve the hectic-ness of moving your cursor around the screen. I think a good compromise would be keeping the click button but arranging them in a more organized layout.
@OccamsRazor Thanks man! Mobile somehow never occurred to me till I read your comment! :D
@Phil Strahl When I designed the game, I wanted it the gameplay to focus more on timing and execution rather than planning and strategy. Concerning the button placement, I agree that the placement makes it awkward to play, something that I think can be fixed with a better layout.
Really neat idea! You should continue it. I included it in part 5 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/UXRiA5Goh28
Interested on the "Coming soon" features, keep it up :D
