Title: Cave Of Wealth

Delve into the dungeons looking for ancient treasures

Genre: Puzzle/Action

It started out as a mock-up, done in a big-pixeled style, but now I've decided to make it a real game.

Gameplay
The goal is progress through the levels and collect as many points as you can on your journey to the core of the caves. You'll be looking for treasures, some located in plain sight and some hidden in the darkest corners, locked away behind traps and lots of enemies. You'll need to find keys, open doors, (de-)activate traps, defeat enemies and way more! But most of all, you'll need to use your brains to find the most precious artifacts.

I'll be posting new updates as I continue making progress, so keep checking! :)

Greets,

Looks cool!  Speaks to me of Gauntlet + Roguelike, which is pretty rad.

I'm definitely looking forward to this. Even if it does prolong my own dev time. Color-coded keys give me a little of that Spelunker vibe, as well.

Thanks for the positive reactions! :D I hope it will turn out great :)

Yeah it will contain a bit of exploring too :)

I'll post concept art too when I got some

Don't forget, ideas are always welcome!

So I made a basic track for the game, maybe for the intro or something. (http://www.2shared.com/audio/tzmwTSml/arabic_beta.html)
What do you guys think? :)

Also: introduced the Ghost to the game. The ghost can travel through walls and will follow you wherever you go (until you are far away from him). The ghost is fast and can be found in treasure chests. When appearing, it'll make a high-pitch noise to inform you: he's coming.

Made a overview of what the game will mainly contain. Should've done this in the beginning.

Are the levels procedurally generated?  (Please say no .. >_>)

they arenīt code generated, itīll be like an arcade game: 10 levels and then a boss. All levels are hand-designed by me (well, by my girlfriend actually, she's the level-designer), and so they won't be random levels
