About The Depths of Avalon
The Depths of Avalon is a cooperative top-down dungeon crawler where players take on the roles of Arthur and Merlin to challenge the dark enchantress Morgan La Fey. This game encourages teamwork with two players using console controllers to navigate through puzzles and battles deep within the dungeons of Avalon.
Set in the realm of Arthurian legends, the story brings together characters from these stories to create a narrative that blends myth with interactive gameplay. The game's art style features a low-poly design, giving it a unique visual flair that complements its fantasy setting.
Developed over 14 weeks by a group of 16 talented second-year students at Butler Community College and published by Ad Astra Studios, a local non-profit, The Depths of Avalon showcases their hard work and creativity. The game is built using Unity 2022.3.16f1 and Blender 4.0.

"The Depths of Avalon" is one of literally thousands of student projects infesting Steam. It's from Butler Community College. While student projects tend to be better quality than most "amateur" made games, we must still question what value such projects have for gamers. As with all student projects, this isn't really a fully fleshed out game, it's just the result of an academic exercise, and as such it has much more limited value as a game than a professionally developed game would have. Educational institutions should not be using Steam as a dumping ground for homework assignments (especially if the students didn't even pass the course). Sure, it helps their marketing and helps the students feel good about themselves, but this is another case of a business putting themselves before the needs of gamers. This is just a really mediocre dungeon crawler/ARPG with no content or interest, a minimum viable product student thing. I'm concerned that the game assets look like they might be flipped, but there's no evidence of that one... either way they look bad and this student project doesn't offer anything more than most asset flips do, anyway. It's all about what's valuable to us…
Short fun game
