Description

The Lab and Dungeons is a blend of roguelike action and shooter RPG, set on an island ruled by robots during a human-robot war. You play as a small robot that has mysteriously powered up recently. Your mission is to mine ores, forge weapons, and confront aggressive robots in the unpredictable, procedurally generated dungeons. Collect items to invent more unique weapons and boost your abilities. From light skirmishes to intense bullet storms with physics enabled, play solo or online co-op with friends, are you ready to take on the challenge and unravel the island’s secret?

History

In the beginning, I set out to create a tank battle game, inspired by my childhood nostalgia for the NES. However, the concept quickly evolved, and the tank transformed into a small robot, a character into which I poured a great deal of affection. Initially, the robot was quite weak, but through a series of upgrades, it grew stronger and stronger.

As development progressed, I began to introduce a variety of enemies and weapons. The world of the game expanded as well, encompassing various dungeons and floors.

Now, two years later, I look back at the old screenshots and see how much the game has changed. It fills me with joy to see the progress and transformation. I’m excited about the future and look forward to continuing to improve and evolve the game.

I’m thrilled to soon be able to share my creation with the gaming community.
