Dungeon Basements - sneak peak

Greetings prospective dungeon-dwellers!

Here's some work in progress screenshots of some of the dungeon pieces we're working on for the upcoming dungeon building feature.


Blue Chapel Room


Ancient Stone 2Entrance Room


Green Chapel Room


Green Marble 2Entrance Room (walls have waterfalls)


Medieval 2Entrance Room


Cathedral 24x48 Room


Cathedral 24x48 Room

Thanks for following our progress! These rooms are all works in progress but should be indicative of some of the nicer spaces you can get for your very own dungeon!

 

Daaaaaaamn! Lovin it!

 

@Vas Corp Por Now are these what we would refer to as "Encounter Rooms?" or are these simply nicer rooms to be added to the standard pieces we would decorate?

 

Fantastic work!!

 

I was sold before the screenshots

Looking to add a couple to village lots. Maybe even my Keep could use a dungeon

 

Are these the kits entrace? And yea epic...

 

@Vas Corp Por Dude ! ... DUDE !!!! .... this is so Awesome !

 

Amazing job! Much greater than i thought lol...

 

looking great
hope to see those pieces in "normal " Adventure zone dungeons

 

1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 are probably 'encounter' rooms with built-in spawners. I'm trying to make some unique rooms that will have deco surfaces for little dwelling spaces, and some that are for encounters.

 

Damn, I'm even more excited now.

 

Are we going to be able to put vendors and/or POT merchants and NPCs in our dungeons? Or will there be a whole other category of "player quest" NPCs only for dungeons?

 

That is a really good question.
@DarkStarr @Chris @Lord British ?

 

OMG, I love you!

 

They never wanted basements that were larger than the lot - it seems a little funny to me to have these dungeons be so huge - and I've no idea where that lighting streaming in comes from. These all look amazing and I wish I could somehow tweak my POT to have environments and features like this, but I'm wondering where these areas that the light is streaming in are supposed to be. And why a row lot can apparently have a dungeon as large as a castle home.

 

I am going to step out on a limb and guess that since the *storebought* entrances are all teleport devices, that the *dungeon* isn't necessarily under the house. It could be another plane of existence, a far away land, could even have parts above ground (thus the windows), or maybe the windows are just backlit by an eternal light spell for effect? (yea... I know... I'm stretching things - but I still like the look so far!).

 

Or perhaps magic fountains (as in the early Ultima Dungeons) which can heal, cure, poison, etc. at random. I don't suggest instant death as a random effect, but some randomness could be fun.

 

The Dev team is really onto something here.

In before someone mentions fishing.

 

I don't consider Vendors/Merchants as a necessary feature as such feature does not exist in Dungeon Keeper 2 (1999) by Bullfrog Productions or in Dungeon Keeper (2014) by Mythos Entertainment.
Vendors/merchants in dungeons is not an Ultima 9 feature either as far as I can remember.
