A very cool and humorous reverse dungeon game. Had to laugh more then once :D
What a fun little game. I enjoy the art and the humor. Also, solid idea for the theme. I dig it.
It took a bit to work out what to do. The writing was very funny.
I love how even a 12-year-old kid must die in order for me to become an adventurer. Quite entertaining to watch all the unfortunate events unfold!
I went into this not expecting much, but I was very surprised very quickly and was forced into several replays, nice work, great jokes :)
Hey, story is really awesome, humour is great! Great job!
Nice and original! I like the humour. Not so fond of sudden-death-start-over parts in this kind of games... Otherwise, no complaints :)
This entry offers a fun twist on the classic roguelike genre! Loved it!
Funny and witty writing and nice graphics despite their simplicity. My only complaint would be that it's too short! Great job with your entry!
Hmm... interesting. Had to play it several times after reading other comments. It felt like I was in a video game version of Mad Magazine or the Hitchiker's Guide to D&D. No other entry was quite like this.
I can't wait to go on dungeon crawlers now! Fun game, I was able to learn with each failure and eventually completed it. Good job.
cute. I like the idea of there being a kind of break room for monsters. It didn't seem like there was much outside of the break room, though (unless I missed something), so I found this entry to be a little underwhelming in terms of content.
Fun little mini-stories. Definitely enjoyed it. The style was very nostalgic. ;)

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
It's like Ultima meets Megahex. Nice work.
