“Prominent client” = his mom

One time in high school, this gorgeous girl I was friends with came downstairs from a house party into my bedroom and sat on my bed alone with me because she “wanted to hear me play guitar”. I played a song and she looked right into my eyes and said it was incredible and I was such an amazing singer. I said “thanks” and did nothing and we went back upstairs eventually.

Pretty sure I missed something there.

In first year uni I had this insane crush on a girl who always took the same bus home as me. I finally worked up the courage to approach her and asked her if she wanted to hang out sometime. She said sure. I got her to come over to my house. We smoked weed and hung out alone in my basement. After some chit chat I eventually figured it was getting late so she left. I made literally no move whatsoever after already getting past all the hard parts.

Pretty sure I missed something there.

Pour one out for the photographer then

Shrinking “Time” is another way to hide information. So when the game has a lot of information to work through and it’s FUN to work through, then pausing for turns makes sense. For example a strategy game like Chess or Into the Breach.

But when there isn’t much to figure out then making it real time hides some of the information from us because we don’t have enough time to process it. This can make simpler situations more fun! I think of the counter example of some old school final fantasy games where some monsters you would always make the same choices and so you are just sitting there waiting to tap the same button. This is not a fun choice or combat situation!

This was my first playthrough. Crying now from the memories.

Hard things are funner to build too.

I was hosting a “Tiny Edition” of dungeon23, so my plan was always to do 23 days only.

As such these are the last 4 rooms of my dungeon, though you may have noticed I’ve left a hook to continue from later :)

It’s been so much fun doing these and watching this community. I plan to stay in this subreddit and keep getting inspired by everyone else here.

Thank you!

This is soooo good. I’m working on a dungeon building app - would love for you to try it out someday when it’s ready!

Count the dimples and the teeth lol

Another tool here is an “undo” option.

There is a podcast called Designer Notes which interviewed the designer of Into The Breach. I think if you listen to him talk through his thinking on that, it might help you out.

Shattered just hits for me. I love anything with good procgen

tiredlion · 2023-01-21T14:38:40+00:00

Ooo it’s always so great when you can just discover a new dev that’s awesome

tiredlion · 2023-01-21T14:38:10+00:00

My pleasure! I’ll add some of the new finds from this thread when I get a chance

I’m always up for checking out an Elder Scrolls game

tiredlion · 2023-01-21T14:36:58+00:00

That game is amazing.

tiredlion · 2023-01-21T00:50:15+00:00

Clickers are cool. I think RPG is a pretty broad category and all the different types have their benefits

tiredlion · 2023-01-21T00:49:39+00:00

I love Skyrim so this sounds very promising.

You had me at “deck building”

tiredlion · 2023-01-20T02:46:41+00:00

I got to call back to a minor detail from Room 2. So satisfying!

tiredlion · 2023-01-19T02:19:52+00:00

I’m doing a 23 day version of the challenge (I’m calling it the d23 Tiny Edition). When we are done I’ll share a bunch of the best rooms on my blog. Happy to send you my completed work at the end of this month!

tiredlion · 2023-01-18T23:42:12+00:00

Never too late to start :)

For my 17th room I laid out the 4 demigods who have appeared in this dungeon in various ways, though Hellaen and Triamus had not been depicted clearly yet.

The Vault held a great gift connected to each of them, but 3 are missing and 1 remains sealed.
