Jemy dedicated years to playing and summarizing dozens of games following the lineage of Dungeon Master, resulting in a video surpassing an epic length of 4h! Don't worry, timestamps are provided for easy navigation, splitting it into nice chunks. And it's not just the usual "Eye of the Beholders", "Ishars", and "Grimrocks" - you’re almost guaranteed to discover some you’ve never even heard of:
Pilot Episode of a Video Series by Kordanor covering all entries from the Dungeoncrawler Game Jam 2025.
This Pilot Episode answers questions like "What is a Dungeoncrawler?" and "What is a Game Jam?", which are important to know to understand what is going on in the videos to come.
Here we are again. 5 years running. Unbelievable :)
The 5th(!) annual Dungeon Crawler Jam is coming to an itch.io near you!
I'm humbled by the amount of participators and games in previous jams, and the quality of the games submitted blow my mind. I look forward to seeing what you all create this time :)
Seldom do we see dungeon crawlers with such unique and intersting aesthetics and mechanics. It is evident that the developer has a deep love for this genre and the impact this game will have on the genre is massive. Traditionally we see the usual brick dungeon variety crawler experience with I-hit-you-and-you-hit-me style combat, but once in a while a game pops up that breaks (and improve) this mold.
Ooooh, this is exciting news! The winner of last year's game jam just informed us that the Steam page of Dawn of the Ashen Queen is now live, and it's something to get massively hyped up about!
Our dear friend Sabbas Eleftheriadis aka vlzvl has informed us that his dungeon crawler in development is now out on Steam as Early Access. Furthermore, it will feature on the next Steam Fest on 10-17 of June.
This is great news for all you crawlerheads and especially those of you that enjoyed the first game! Legends of Amberland II: The Song of Trees has now been released for PC!
Me being a megafan of the first game is super excited to learn that Legends of Amberland II: The Song of Trees by Silver Lemur Games is going to be released on PC (Steam and GOG) on the 5th December 2023.
New to this year's game jam, we introduced a panel of judges, each assigned to check out all the entries and select their top five favorites. Unexpectedly, we received nearly 200 submissions, which took a considerable amount of time to play through. The judges unanimously agreed that the overall quality was exceptionally high this year, with numerous outstanding games that show great potential to be developed into full-fledged commercial products.
Among all the submissions, the judges collectively selected 19 games, which demonstrates a remarkable alignment in their choices.
