Dungeons Are Random

Well, trailer says it all. "YOU DIED" will appear on your screen more than you're willing to admit. Doesn't matter how much you try, how skilled you consider yourself to be, you'll die a lot. The main reason for most of your deaths will probably be buggy controls and even worse enemies. Simply said, this game doesn't feel right at all. Nor finished. [b][h1]======OVERVIEW======[/h1][/b] Yeah, dungeons are random. Completely. It'd be a good feature, if it just wasn't so terribly executed. Visuals aren't that bad, sure, but controls? Awful. They don't make sense either [i](F for inventory, CTRL for attack, like.. why?)[/i]. However, it has a nice idea. UI is kinda bad, sure [i](specifically the "HP" and "mana" candles)[/i]. But honestly, game has a nice variety of enemies. If only they weren't so buggy. It kinda goes hand in hand with controls though so I guess if they fix this problem, they'll have easier time with fixing enemies. Nevertheless, it doesn't seem like developers care about Dungeons Are Random that much. Last update, which fixed just few of the worst bugs, was in January. Which makes me sad because this game could be a nice little gem. [b][h1]PROS[/h1] - variety of e…

[b]I was given a code to do a honest review on and to help the developer out on this game[/b] Date in which I did this review: 11/02/16 (dd/mm/yy just incase you dont wrtie it in the same way we brits do haha) Dungeons are random is a rogue-like RPG, with (obviously) randomly generated dungeons. I will go through the game in as much detail for the sake of you the buyer and the developer so that in the future he can hopefully make updates to take this game and make the overal reviews to positive, and the buyer can see if they buy this now or wait till later. Let's begin. When you enter for the first time you might need to familaiaize yourself with the controls and stuff. All pretty self-explanatory, although a controller would probably be heavily recommended as the keyboard controls feel a little uncomfortable sometimes. Anyways controls aside let's talk about the gameplay, the gameplay itself isn't exactly the best. When weilding a handed weapon it takes way too long for the weapon to make contact with the enemie to kill it. The attack should be almost instant, with a small animation for the attack. The bow and arrow is the only real weapon that you will be able to use in order …

Disclaimer: I helped translating the game and got a copy for my efforts. The game is a fun little time waster where you think you know how to handle the enemies till you get bored and stop paying attention...and then you get eaten by a frog...I'm not kidding, this is my favorite way to die in this game, I was about to change my gear because I thought I cleared the room and picked up some loot...always look for moving shadows, that's my advice for you! ;-) There have been multiple updates to the game since release which added nice effects and new enemy behavior. Boss fights are fun but sometimes a bit too easy, but the difficulty increases with every dungeon you finish. Duo to the recommendation of a high-score mechanic by many on Greenlight, including me, the developer implemented such a feature which gives the achievement hunters in us a reason to go on. There are some really cool features in the game, like when there is a bonfire, you can shoot your arrows through the fire and it becomes a burning arrow which does additional damage to enemies. Also, enemies don't hit you by touching, they rather all have an attack animation which must clip with your character to hurt you. Th…

There are good stuff in this game and some bad stuff that make this game not so good. The good stuff is dungeons being random which will make any game a unique experience. The bad stuff is probably the control. I could not do much with melee weapons while I was able to make my way with a simple bow. Hence if you don't get a bow at the start, you sort of good for a quick death. From what it seems this game seems to be a single person project. I could say kudos on that but with many games of the same genre available with better playability and implemented ideas in the same Steam price range, Dungeons Are Random lacks of the little extra notch, polishing and a serious dose of playtesting that will make it a great or at least good game and not looking like some game prototypes or school projects. For a low price or in a bundle, this is a good game to get when you have to kill 10-15 min in a rogue game. For the current asked price, this is way too much to pay for the fun the game creates.

I know how much there is a wisdom in "don't judge a book by its cover" , but, man, this is a really bad cover....
