Void Viridian | Puro Dunjon セドゥーラの約束

Seeds & mazes, Locks & Keys: Puro Dunjon (Playdate version) Let’s talk a bit about why I fell in love with labyrinths and procedural generation. At the end of 2024, I made a pretty simple game: You are in a dungeon and you must escape. As much as I know that.....

This time, a technical incoherent rambling about procedural generation

Later today, I'll make a technical post on itch.io about the "design" behind #puroDunjon

Watch your step 😬

It should work with more than 2 dimensions, just saying

#solodev

After many attempts, I switched from Kruskal's algo to Eller (with some adjustments)

It's incredibly fast (and efficient), so any loading screen may be for mood

3x3: tests for required deadends 👍
4x4: default 👍
5x5 up to 7x7: 👍 (NG+ ?)
😀

So, obviously, I try implementing the old algo and boy o boy

2x2 works, given the limited possibilities

3x3 feel like failing brute force as it takes too much time

My aim is 4x4, no less, and ideally up to 7x7

Moving to another algo

The good news: I found bugs in how I picked a value from the seed

Still wonder if I should go back to my old implementation or try a new one

Tests and performances will decide in the end, as I don't want to exclude larger 7x7 maze yet

For the life of me, I can't find why this very implementation of the algorithm won't work

Do the original implementation was working "eventually"?

So, of course, I'll be implementing a different one

Maze aspect is important, so 🤞

No sure about the total number of dungeon rooms, 4x4 seems fine enough whereas 7x7 could be too much (maybe in challenge mode?)

While I do have faith in the maze algorithm, I'll still have to make a map screen

Obviously, it'll be better once said algorithm is fully implemented

#indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #playdate #puroDunjon #screenshotSaturday

I must reckon that chronic pain impair my ability to progress as fast I would like, but I'm still pushing

#indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #playdate

Even more complex machines !

Also trying a new tile set / render style

While rewatching the trailer, I think I've found the way I want to tell the game story, this time

I'm leaning toward letting the player make them own interpretation with things found here and there

Writing less, putting holes and clues

#indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #playdate #PuroDunjon

Back to writing the maze generator (again), seed based as always

It's a good exercise and on #playdate hardware, it should not take too long to generate the rooms

Obviously I'll do console tests and optimise

Worst case, I make a loading screen

#indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #puroDunjon

Pondering if I should make a continuous camera scrolling targeting the player, scrolling upon room transition or not bother at all and teleport the camera when changing room

The less cumbersome solution will eventually become obvious

#indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #playdate #puroDunjon

I may have found another #arcade game idea that would fit nicely with procedurally generated maze-like levels

Later this year (maybe)

#indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #playdate

I don't have much to share right now because I want to take my time

I'll have to make some tests to put screen readability first, given the 1bit nature of the display

Still, I want it to be a good port/remake

It feels like a lifetime ago when I took that first screenshot.
