Steam Version Details & FAQ

Dragon Ruins

A dungeon crawling microgame for tired people.

Hi everyone, Since Dragon Ruins started as a Dungeon Crawler Jam 2024 game and the Steam version came together very quickly, I'd like to answer a few common questions. [h2]How long is it?[/h2] It's about 2-3 hours long. You can squeeze more playtime out of it by trying a different party or trying the NG+ mode, which gives monsters a small stat boost and increases their numbers. [h2]How much will it cost?[/h2] The base price is $4.99. [h2]What are the changes from the jam version?[/h2] Here's a short list: [list] [*] Redesigned the dungeon; [*] Added two optional bosses; [*] Added new monster types; [*] Added party creation; [*] Added 4 new character classes; [*] Added magic circles that teleport you back to town; [*] Added a shop where you can purchase consumables, such as Medicine and Teleporter Scrolls; [*] Added fast travel back to town in exchange for half of your gold; [*] Added scrollable fullscreen automap; [*] Added new music; [*] Added intro and ending sequences; [*] Added strafing for fellow crab-walking enjoyers; [*] Added a saving system; [*] Improved status screen; [*] Improved NG+ mode; [*] Bugfixes and improved stability. [/list] [h2]Are there any localization plans?[/h2] It depends on the sales of the base game, as well as regional wishlists. If there's enough interest, I'll consider it. [h2]What's the source of inspiration behind it?[/h2] The project was inspired by David Allen's Mordor: Depths of Dejenol. This project is a streamlined spiritual successor to measure player interest in this kind of game. Thank you for your interest in my little project. See you at the launch!
