Hahaha! On my first play I didn't read the instructions and just build a nice dungeon hoping I would get to play it. I didn't :(

Still It's the best Tetris like dungeon builder I played today!

Great idea on this game !!! Had a lot of fun to play it and including the high scores is a smart idea, made me want to figure in it :D

I just don't understood what treasures were here for ? Just more points ?

Really good job ! Congratulations !

I kept playing until I got #1 on the leader board. Really requires you to plan and think. Great compo entry, one the of the funnest so far. Also, the music has a nice groove to it.

Post-compo you should consider adding ways for the player to affect the map; or even putting some time pressure on the player.

Very good, and really fun. Very good entry :) Art is awesome.
Could be nice to have some special actions when a line is completed with some items/monsters!

Love the music and the art. The game idea is cute and fun!

I think it might have been a good idea to start the map small, and then increase the width over time. Took me quite a while to get a combination when I first started :)

Works well, though I have to say I just ignored the whole dungeon sim thing and played the placement puzzle.

Pretty cool idea and slick presentation! I had a problem where I couldn't see the leftmost row so I didn't clear any horizontal lines at all, then halfway through the game I cleared a vertical row and I was like OH IT DOES WORK.

What does the chest thing do
What do big white blocks do
I think you need more in-game help/tutorial/assistance
Maybe have a proper border so the player can be sure where things end. I couldn't know.
I didn't know I wanted heroes to win. If I am building a dungeon it's a pretty good assumption to make that I'm on the side of the monsters.

Great idea and cool implementation :)

Very good game ! My fav so far. Simple mechanic with good replay value. I can see nice additions if you choose to work on it after the compo.

Wow, made it in the leaderboard!
I really like this idea. I feel like the characters should do/move a lot more, because most of the time I'd destroy lines before they do anything... but the concept is great.
Congrats! It's a great thing. :)

hey there, the graphics were perfect for this idea, this was really fun to play, i really wanted to keep playing to beat my high score, good job!
jacobturn17 Dec 2016, 14:59
it was confusing but fun!

i didn't understand how to win though.

LIked the idea... very clever.
Takes some time to understand the whole rules.
Would be nice to have an explanation in game.

congratz

Lots of fun, would have kept playing to get a high score. It could be more obvious that lining up a row removes it but that's just a small issue, really great overall.
peredm17 Dec 2016, 20:36
The art, sound and music are great! The idea is good and original despite being a bit like tetris.
AlmightyTuna17 Dec 2016, 23:52
Very novel concept. Would have liked the combat to be more meaningful, rather than just being for high-score
Pierrec19 Dec 2016, 15:56
woah
I didn't really get it at first, but once I did, I got completely hooked. I think I spent about 2 hours on this! The dungeon setting is a nice addition although it's pretty useless. Maybe you could reinforce this part a bit, or drop it completely to get something more abstract.

i never saw something like this not even something similar in ld37, building the room instead of playing it it i love it its awesome, and the cute littel heros fighting the monsters is just fun to watch while helping them building their terrain.

Good effort, but could use more 360 noscopes and sick memes. Also this is just me but have you considered a tutorial screen at the start to explain the goal? Thought I was playing dungeon tetris.

Good idea, really addictive. I also like the swarming aspect. Also really cool that you used divs for game graphics :D
