what is a “rouge-like” game

(You mean rogue, right?

a rogue-like, is like a game that when you get KO’d, you start the entire game over.
but with better items and such. (I think, correct me if I’m wrong)

oh ok (reminds me of a fighters arcade game)

kinda like Splatoon’s Side Order DLC mode

What is the theme of the game?

it takes place in a desert, you start in a prison in a pyramid.

Maybe you could use tan colorations of dark stone pillars for architecture?

Different Dimensions maybe??

Nah, 2 people are already making games about that.

oh, :slightly_frowning_face: maybe like a big open world you don’t see many of those on discovery

like DND? wdym rogue-like

it means basically a randomly generated dungeon (or map) that players traverse through.

DND ._.

But this overall sounds fun, having a randomiser randomly on game start put certain props based a random picking it made, that would be cool

I’ve never played DND, so I wouldn’t know.

Buddy your missing out, go observe some DND its pretty fun and cool

at least take 5-10 minutes of your time looking up DND stuff, I bet you will like it

in summary you can be mystical races like elves goblins dragon born, etc and fight monsters and make dumb choices. like shove 3 pounds of dirt down someones throat* you roll dice to make decisions and all sorts. take a look and it could help give you ideas for your game

*real DND experience I have heard

in my opinion in DND anything is possible pretty much as long as the person controlling the story/Dungeon Master allows it

To get back on topic, you could use Ozi gims as resurrected mummies roaming the pyramid corridors.

Make a big ozi as the first boss of the game
make the whole getting stronger thing in XP, leveling up gives you better abilities for your next run.
