I received a ton of great feedback on the Dungeon Quest trailer, so I went back to the drawing board and made a new one! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #worldbuilding

Experimenting with new abilities is one of my favorite parts of developing Dungeon Quest. Here are a few of them in action! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #vfx #dungeoncrawler

Been polishing the combat feel in Dungeon Quest. Here's what happens when you activate Berserk! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #vfx

Thanks :) it is a lot more strategic than it looks which I need to get better at communicating

Destined @destined.com · 23/09/2026

Well at least they figured something out

I just finished the trailer for my dungeon crawler with a line based resource collection combat. It's the game I really want to play (and enjoy playing) so I am hoping others feel the same! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #worldbuilding

A few abilities you can use in combat to shift things your way, with strong synergies waiting to be discovered! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #vfx

Caves has been said a few times by people to me. Light beams always look good :)

Necropolis and Sewer are done, which Dungeon Quest level/theme do you want to see me build next? Please comment :) #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #worldbuilding

There was an old mobile game I was addicted to called Dungeon Raid but the apple OS updates killed it :( It actually super deep and fun, but I need to figure how to communicate it isn't candy crush style match 3, it more resource management.

If I do outdoors I would still follow grid like original eye of the beholder and make dense trees the wall

Spiders alone are scary, but Dungeon Quest’s spiders spit poison straight at you #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #spider

It scales in a non-linear way, but basically if it is level 1, you get level 1 version of the monster stats wise, if it is level 8 you get level 8 version. Some monster abililities only appear in later levels and they have a different easier one for early spawn. The difficulty curve will make game

Destined @destined.com · 18/09/2026

I haven't made them all yet :D The idea is just to style it a little to biome, not that is ages with your journey. At this point I am far more worried about balance and making sure difficulty hits right (plus getting a proper trailer done!)

Destined @destined.com · 18/09/2026

The levels don’t come in a specific order so they all need to be good. I was only thinking subtle paper changes, like light mud/water stains for sewers, or a more white paper for necropolis. Readability is most important and I won’t sacrifice on that!

Destined @destined.com · 18/09/2026

It is is the trim/decoration around the walls, the borders of the map and other little things that made sense to change. I haven't yet, but I will likely change the paper too. It isn't a huge change, but I think is cool and hopefully some people notice. Here is a example of different

Updated the Sewer minimap in Dungeon Quest, aiming for a distinct map style for each level, wishlists appreciated if you want to support development :) #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming

This is what a fight looks like in Dungeon Quest: fast, tactical, and full of choices! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming #dnd

Building a necropolis level, still early, but it’s really capturing that classic dungeon feel. Every wishlist makes me want to make it even better! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming

Oh that makes more sense

Destined @destined.com · 14/09/2026

I haven’t had much luck :(

How did they get on Xbox so quick?

Purely seeing, you have a minimap to help with navigation. Lights all just to make level pretty for me. Not sure if I will do an outdoor level yet

Destined @destined.com · 11/09/2026

Feels like perfect system for this game

031

Destined @destined.com · 11/09/2026

For me it’s the darkness. You can’t see far at all if I don’t put lights in the scene. Mine are procedural too so making them always feel good is tricky. I still need more pieces to make it work

Destined @destined.com · 11/09/2026

Been working on a new sewers themed level for Dungeon Quest. While it still had a way to go I think it is showing potential and feeling like and old school dungeon crawler. #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming PS the more wishlists the bigger I make it!

Destined @destined.com · 04/09/2026

not currently, been focusing more at pacing. But yeah I would like a way to visually reward bigger hits (or even 1 shotting the monster!). Will definitely get some variation going. Will still leave the health bar so you know how much you have to go, but yeah it very secondary now.

Destined @destined.com · 04/09/2026

I am hoping to get to switch one day if it is popular enough! Has full controller support. Thank you so much for the nice comment.

Destined @destined.com · 04/09/2026

Making it even more clear when you damage the monster and the monster damages you. I went for the blood splats like classics. Game is Dungeon Quest on steam! (also added items with active abilities :D) #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming PS wishlist helps grow game

Destined @destined.com · 03/09/2026

Currently it’s 1 monster at a time

Destined @destined.com · 03/09/2026

It does slosh in general but it’s subtle, I don’t think anyone even notices lol

000

Destined @destined.com · 03/09/2026

thats a good idea, or make the liquid slosh around

Destined @destined.com · 03/09/2026

I have been trying to make it more clear when you damage the monster and the monster damages you. I went for the blood splats like the eye of the beholder series. Game is Dungeon Quest on steam! #indiedev #indiegaming #rpg #turnbased #pixel #pixelart #retrogaming

It’s hit Roblox too. I’m all for being inspired by a game but this is just silly

000

Destined @destined.com · 02/09/2026

It isn't just sorting slop anymore, they can't even up with a new name or idea, mean while I am just sitting in the corner putting everything into my weird little games (please considering wishlisting Dungeon Quest!) #indiegaming #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #gaming #videogames

Imagine of the same needle in a haystack named game 4 times on steam

What is archipelago randomizer? And thanks :)

Destined @destined.com · 01/09/2026

I like that idea. I will make the fade out as you leave slower. I can't really do anything with spells because all spells can only be used during combat. I can also do a class which has a longer view as one of the perks which could be cool!
