Earlier Amplitude Studios announced a new game that they have been keeping very tight-lipped about. Dungeon of the Endless appears to be a Dungeon Crawler with a very similar style to the already quite popular Dungeons of Dredmor.
Dungeon of the Endless and Art
The art in this game seems to be a step above even their earlier games. With detailed rooms and enemies with very interesting animations they appear to be stepping it up.
Dungeon of the Endless is a Roguelike Tower Defense Game (?)
That is what they are calling it right now. The player and their team have to protect a generator while finding new items in a massive dungeon. There are also waves and special events as the game goes on. While they have not said how it will work in-depth there is really only one way it would. The player places traps and defenses as they go through the various rooms and gathers more of them. The most crucial point to defend is of course your ship but you have to guard from attacks in the adjacent rooms in order to make sure waves don’t overwhelm you. Will this mix of some very fun genres actually work out in the end? Hopefully as it sounds good.
Seeing Dungeon of the Endless in Person
This is going to be their flagship game at Gamescom this week so you can go by the Amplitude Studios group and check it out for yourself. They have quite a few games they are trying to promote. Other than that you will just have to wait for information just like the rest of us. We are not sure whether it is a good or bad thing that they are keeping quite a bit of information on the game under lock and key.
