Reviews for "Deterministic Dungeon"

Considering this is an RNG, I was wondering why there were no items to speed up and slow down the counters. Anyway.

The art was alright, and the gameplay got me sucked in during the first few levels. I think the trouble with this is that you'd be more likely to grind in the upper levels before going down. Tedium at its worst. I love the odd weapons in this game. A spork? Maybe a balloon animal? It'd be nice to include these in the field journal as well, to give us players a sense of accomplishment. And then have a New Game Plus feature so that if we're gunning for the 100%, we could have a few more tries on the gachapon machine.

The music is quite nice. Calming, in a lot of places. You wouldn't expect that of a dungeon, but it works.

The gameplay itself, on the other hand, raises questions like

1) How is it that the RNG moves four spaces once, and five spaces another when I time it to the precise second? This should NOT be happening. Unless you scrambled it instead of letting the selector move from top left to bottom right, this shouldn't be happening.

2) The skip function in making room layouts should be just as random as the making of the room itself. EVERY SINGLE TIME I skipped, the boss wasn't happy with his placement. There shouldn't be impossible scenarios like this every time the Skip button is pressed.

Alright game, I suppose.

There are buffs to slow down the chooser, keep playing! Also, every weapon is in the field journal, look in the "special" section tab on the left.

I was fighting the boss on Stone 2-3 And the wizard slowed my move, after the battle was over I had auto set on and so it kept going so now I'm stuck in the swinging position at a key with nothing to swing at. The game was thoroughly enjoyable up to that point though.

PestoForce responds:

refreshing the page should get you back into things!

Wait, is 3 the maximum number for each statue? Why not make it 5?

Aside from this minor complaint, this game is fantastic. A very clever take on the whole dungeon crawler theme. Plus, I love all the little nerd references.

PestoForce responds:

Yeah, just 3 max. The sequel I plan to have them increase power up to 16!!!!

This game is just okay. Everything goes so fast it might as well be random

Visually and mechanically enjoyable even though you'll probably die your first run
