The Last of Dingus - 3D Roguelike TDS

The Last of Dingus!

It's a roguelike top-down-shooter game set in space!

Premise :

Scavenge areas in search of resources as brave spaceman Jole Dingus! Watch out for those nasty alien shrooms though! They will try to eat you! As you hoard your items, you will be able to pick bonuses each day to grow in strength!

Production :

It's another game I made in collaboration with @alk0vin! This time during roguelike themed 7DRL Challenge 2023 gamejam on itch.io!
We planned for this game to be our test of how to make "fun to play" game, as we often forgot about that important factor in our previous productions :P We often made games that were fun in concept, but in result didnt provide experience that even we as creators wanted to come back to. This game is supposed to change this, so I hope it worked out :)

Inspiration :

The title and theme of alien mushrooms chasing protagonist called Jole is of course inspired by currently running show and the game that we love - "The Last of Us", so its fun that we released this during premiere day of finale episode 9 of the series on HBO.
Work :
I was working on The Last of Dingus as a C# programmer and Unity developer and Stachu - @alk0vin worked as 2D and 3D artist for all of the assets. Music if featured was either self-made, or variations of free sounds from freesound.com.
