Dungeon Master (for GMTK 2023)

Submitted for the 48-hour GMTK Game Jam 2023, this game follows the jam's theme of "Roles Reversed": rather than playing a procedurally-generated dungeon and fighting monsters, the player takes place of the algorithm to generate dungeons for an AI-controlled protagonist character.

This is our first Game Jam game, and to our admission, the concept ended up being quite ambitious to do with our small team in the given time.  Planned features include more enemy and terrain types, a loot system for the AI player to obtain, as well as a "stress, boredom, accomplishment" system that rates the difficulty curve of the levels created in order, based on how easily the AI is able to complete each level and the rewards of loot the player gives them.

CONTROLS:

• Left click: place down objects
• Right click: Delete objects
• Scroll wheel: Select objects to place down
• Enter key: Activate the dungeon! (You cannot place down new objects until after the AI player defeats all the monsters.)
