Beneath by Stepperz
**I have added an updated version of the game if anyone is interested after playing the 72hr version :)**
'Beneath' is a turn based Rogue-like RPG. The Player is put into the position of a daring adventurer, who like many people desire to see what lies beneath.
***Web version error help is given below the game***
***If the web version still fails then feel free to download***
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
CONTROLS:
-Mouse (left clicking does mostly everything).
-Space Bar uses up one turn.
-The Pickup GUI component lies at the bottom middle of the screen and it may be a little hard to see.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
HELP:
-The Aim of the game is to get as far down as you can.
-The Level reloads when you reach the downwards stairs.
-The Slimes get harder to kill as you descend so stock up on health potions and find a better piece of metal to cut them down with!!!
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
TOOLS:
-Intellij IDEA
-Java with the Slick2d library
-Jarsplice for packaging
-GitHub for file hosting
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
Thanks for giving it a go!!!

Once I got it running, I really enjoyed playing! I'm a huge fan of roguelikes and this was good fun. My biggest gripe was just that if you clicked when you were already walking, you had to wait to get to your first click before you would go to the second click (I would expect it to interrupt the walking and take you to the new destination).
I would like to see a bit more variety, but since there was limited time I think that gets a pass. Great game!
well done on the game though! i dived too recklessly :P
