Planet Of The Ghouls
A downloadable game for Windows
B-movie sci-fi themed 2D Roguelike with explosives!
This playable prototype was originally made for GMTK Game Jam 2022. I wanted to see if I could make a game that felt a bit like player Bomberman, but turn-based and using some procgen for the levels.
It is based on the Unity 2D Roguelike Scavengers tutorial series; though it has been heavily modified along with a major bug fix for an issue with the tutorial series.
Major mechanic changes / additions:
- New movement code - enemies navigate the level.
- Improved turn-based gameplay code - consistently much faster.
- Loot-drop code - to reward player interaction.
- Destroyable loot crates - with new item additions.
- Player needs to find air to breathe along with food.
- Player can now use their pickaxe to attack enemies.
- Player can now SHOOT collected ammo with a shotgun.
- Player can use EXPLOSIVE CHARGES in Bomberman fashion to clear obstacles and eliminate enemies.
It also has heavily reworked sprites plus a bunch of sprite and audio additions.
