[abandoned] Endless Dungeon

by Gibeinumo » Post

Endless Dungeon is a game for the minetest engine that generates a dungeon populated by hostile mobs below -48. It does include many mods from Minetest Game, but not all. For example boats, butterflies and carts are not included. Nevertheless you are able to play much of your time on the over world. In Minetest Game I experienced that cobblestone accumulated a lot. Since this game has a dungeon with passages, this isn't a big issue here.
While going deeper into the ground you will encounter unbreakable floors, but they have holes to get through. The dungeon complex is divided into dungeon areas with buildings and a simple maze partly separates them. Barrels are generated in each dungeon area. You will find food, ingots, wood and other things inside these barrels, but they are guarded by mobs. Empty barrels get refilled after some time, but the mobs respawn, too. This game includes mods by other authors.

hints:
+ use a crafting guide of your choice
+ patrol points don't work above ground
warning:

somehow bags disappear, I don't know why

changes:
2019.09.19: mapgen is tuned and a fix
2019.08.04: thirst works differently now

I just tried this and it's looking pretty nice!
I do have a few suggestions:
  • Dehydration if pretty fast and so far I couldn't find something to drink in the barrels. More drinks in the loot would be nice.
  • Torches giving off light when wielded would be nice.
  • Spawn the player in the dungeons. For a game in my opinion having MTG gameplay of collecting resources before you get to the actual gameplay isn't that fun. Personally I would even go as far as to generate dungeons in the whole map, not just under -200.
  • If you do decide to spawn players in dungeons, give a basic weapon and torches with give_initial_stuff

Nice :)
Dehydration is fast yes, but it really isn't an issue after you got three steel bars to make a bucket. You can place a water source block with it and drink from it using a wooden bowl. I actually think about removing the buckets because of it.
Glowing torches are a nice idea. Do you know a mod that already does something like it?
I actually had no over world in the beginning, but I decided to put it back in. I think that it enriches the game play through variety.

There are a few mods that do wielded light in different ways.

I've still got a copy, I can publish it later.

Edit: it became later.
Sadly I didn't git clone so I don't have the commit history. https://notabug.org/NetherEran/endless_dungeon
