After their job, of keeping the dungeons in balance, was done, our heroes needed a new job. Roaming the lands they found a call for heroes, a castle in need, possible even a damsel in distress?

Pick two heroes to take into the adventure, controlling both heroes and using their special skills to navigate the dangerous castle hallways, rooms and floors. Switching between the two characters to solve quests, puzzles, and of course clear the dungeons of all evil.

Quests - The dungeon is full of problems, let's call them quests. These problems range from simple "find a key" to "use magic powers to light all magic candles and open the magical gate". Different types of quests require different solutions. Use the skills of the characters in your party to complete these quests.

Weapons - Your characters are your main weapons. The Elf shoots his arrows through multiple monsters, the Wizard has unlimited magic, the Warrior has a powerful melee attack with his hammer, and the Valkyrie besides having a quick spinning-melee attack can also detect secrets and important loot. The characters can level up to increase their firepower, or find rare loot which enhances your character for short periods of time. This includes magic spells!

Secrets - Find secret rooms, level-skipping teleports, secret items, and more!

Perma-items - You will be able to unlock magic spells by collecting 4 shards of various magic books. Once all shards are collected the magic is unlocked. It's also possible to increase the strength of this magic by collecting the magic shards multiple times. All unlocked spells will stay unlocked even after you die, making you more powerful on your future attempts to reach the final boss.

version 0.9.5 - new game modes

Another week of updates, fixes and additions, and another week closer to a official release version "one".

I've added two new (unlockable) game modes to the game, and also a new mini-boss and new monsters. Most importantly there is now a proper ending to the game, altho I doubt many people will reach level 100 in the current version

A bunch of tweaks have been made to the use of magic (more linked to the magic-level you unlocked and your characters magic powers).

The health on monsters has been changed, so they still become tougher in later levels, but it now feels more "fair".. still not perfect, but my average runs have improved, so let's see how far you guys and girls can get with this new build !

As for the game modes, a little information:

Hard mode

Still need a bit of work on this one, but it's basically a shorter and tougher version of the game's campaign. Where the Standard mode is 100 levels, this one only has 30 levels but level 30 is comparable in difficulty to level 100. So the difficulty increases faster.

It needs a bit of balancing but it's already fun to play and for the more seasoned players it should provide a nicer and shorter challenge (also great for streamers!)

Survival mode

This basically spawned out of a little test I was doing with Arena rooms, I noticed it was pretty fun and tense to just have to beat arena rooms one after another.. so that's what this mode is! A very short mode (for most players) with arena's becoming harder as you progress.. you get a random character assigned with every level, so you better get good at using all characters.

This mode is a bit experimental, let me know if you enjoy it. I might add some changes to the arena rooms in later levels, adding things like spikes or flames, to really make them interesting.. for now it's a fun and quick game mode with a leaderboard!
