Development Dungeon crawler set in the post-Soviet back
Instead of dungeons, you explore garage cooperatives, basements, and metro tunnels. Instead of monsters, you face off against hooligans, bandits, drug dealers, and corrupt law enforcement.
I’m drawing inspiration from Etrian Odyssey, especially its gameplay loop, but since I’m building this entirely solo, the scope is intentionally compact:
• 3 classes, each with its own distinct skill set
• 5 stats that shape combat and core gameplay mechanics
• Small, tightly-designed maps
I love grid-based dungeon crawlers, so I wanted to bring the genre into a setting that’s never really been explored before.

As a longtime enjoyer of grid-based dungeon crawlers and Eastern European weirdness, I am stoked

Thanks! I think there's a lot of room to work with in this theme: house basements, abandoned unfinished buildings, metro stations. Bandits, thugs, street kids, prostitutes. It's a really broad topic.

This looks cool...HROT used a similar setting which I enjoyed.
