Wrote my own RNG algorithm (just take the sine of a seed and increment the seed by one for the next time). I also made it so that enemies can't spawn in the first room.

gamedev 

Rooms in the dungeon now have different designs (randomly picked from a list of currently three templates).

gamedev 

Added coins. I plan to have them be used for in-dungeon shops.

gamedev 

Added hearts. There is a 25% chance that a heart will drop. HP does increase, but HP still has no effect right now.

gamedev 

Added an exit tile (actually an object on it's own and not a child of the "Tile" class) that is randomly placed on each floor. Though it does nothing yet.

gamedev 

Multiple levels have now been implemented.

The second level is indeed a new one. The procedural generation algorithm made the starting room look like the ending room of the previous one.

gamedev 

Added music and sound effects. Though, music was technically added previously, but I muted the previous recording.

Background music is "Dungeon 05" by Beau Buckley, released under the CC-BY-SA 4.0.

gamedev 

Added a white sword. It takes twice as much damage. I plan on including "rental shops" where you can buy temporary items like this white sword and they go away if the player dies.

gamedev 

Added a potion. It fully restores HP. I also plan on having this being one of the items sold in the shop.

gamedev 

Purchasable items have now been implemented.

gamedev 

Added blue coins. They are worth 5 coins each.

gamedev 

Decided to add more rooms in the procedurally generated dungeons to add more variety. Sand rooms can now appear but they are functionally no different than floor tiles.

gamedev 

Replaced the copyrighted, placeholder tiles with my own.

gamedev 

Improved the wall tiles. It looks SO much better now. It's actually starting to look like a game.

gamedev 

Now, keys (using the coin sprite as a placeholder) are required to exit each floor.

gamedev 

Created a third enemy that shoots projectiles.

gamedev 

Added a shield item which reduces the damage the player takes by half.

gamedev 

Dungeon shops are fully functional. Though I will most likely move them to the center of their rooms and maybe add a merchant.

gamedev 

Rearranging the HUD.

(No video this time because I only need a screenshot to demonstrate)

gamedev 

Implemented pausing (something I have neglected for a while).

gamedev 

HUD now includes icons to indicated the items you have.

gamedev 

Added an alternate tileset. I plan on having the tilesets change, the deeper you go.

gamedev 

Dungeon now has alternate tracks for different floors.

gamedev 

Added an "ice level" tileset along with an accompanying track.

gamedev 

Added the fourth tileset. I have know idea what this is supposed to be.

gamedev 

Added a locked door that appears before each exit room.

gamedev 

Created a sand tileset. That appears in-between the snow tileset and purple tileset.

gamedev 

Added lives, including an extra life item that sometimes appears in the dungeon shops. I even plan on going so far as to delete your save file if you run out of lives.

gamedev 

Finally, the key is no longer using the coin sprite as a placeholder and now has it's own texture.

gamedev 

Created a texture for the extra life item. It looks kind of weird. I tried to make it look like a stick figure with a plus sign, indicating an "extra life", but it turned out kind of odd.

gamedev 

Finally added text on the game over screen. It's weird that I always neglect details like these.

gamedev 

Implemented saving and loading. Game saves automatically every time you enter a new floor, but you loose your save file if you run out of lives.

@d7094945513d0072aa9e2d300c65fba336be751ef60eecbbf0d7a4871561d41a I did. Maybe it's not viewable from your Nostr client, or the Nostr-Fedi bridge is being funky.
