Description

This is an unfinished prototype created to test the idea for a roguelike where the player is a necromancer. The plan was for the player's health bar, which is composed of souls, to also double as a magic mana meter. The player could also revive slain enemies to create an army to make combat easier.

Process & Challenges

The project began by developing an algorithm which would allow for interesting, randomly-generated dungeon layouts featuring hand-crafted rooms. After this, the player and enemy systems were developed. Clumping avoidance behavior was added to make enemy AI more interesting.
