You are now the Dungeon! by Cosrnos
Dive deeper into the generic fantasy dungeon and actually become an underground dungeon! Create monster spawners and build a challenging dungeon for the heroes and try to balance it so you can grow even bigger!

We had a lot of fun building this round and I feel we worked well as a team. We had a fun idea that allowed us to be creative and could easily be built upon!

I think the core game concept here is great, and the interface works very well. The only thing that irks me a bit is that it doesn't feel properly balanced. You can build more or less everything off the bat, and the dungeon either turns out too easy or too hard. Since there's no way to lose either, it lacks a bit of tension.
Might be me misunderstanding something, but the heroes seem very likely to just hang out around the entrance?
(Sorry if this sounded overtly negative. I enjoyed it, and writing this because I want to see it tweaked and envolved. Also, I really like the music!)
@Cryovat Thanks for the comment! I actually spent a full 10 hours just balancing and re-balancing the game and I still felt like it was too jumpy like you mentioned. Also, the hero movement algorithm needs a lot of work, which could cause them to hang out in the same 3 rooms for a while.
Thank you all again for the comments and I'd love to hear more! If you're interested in playing future versions of this game, follow me on twitter and I'll keep you all in the loop (:
