Singapore-based indie studio Springloaded has released a Steam demo for their upcoming game development simulator Let’s Build A Dungeon. A new trailer was also revealed during PC Gaming Show, alongside details of the demo and the game’s Twitch integration.
In the game, players take charge as both Game Designer and CEO in a bid to develop the greatest MMORPG the world has ever seen. From hiring and firing to tackling investor demands, dungeon designing to world building – this multi-layered management sim is a true-to-life depiction of what it takes to run a fledgling game studio.
The new demo for Let’s Build A Dungeon provides a taste of what to expect from the full release, with player choice being at the forefront of the gameplay. Players are tasked with building a fantasy world filled with quests to share with virtual beta testers, with branching paths and multiple quest options to choose from.
The demo also marks a historic moment for your in-game studio, inspired by the iconic real-life events from Ultima Online’s development involving Lord British.
When the game launches next year, streamers will not only be able to put themselves in the game using a suite of creative tools, but also invite members of their Twitch chat to join their custom fantasy world as an avatar. Chat avatars will visit the streamer’s custom MMORPG, explore the world and hopefully survive long enough to complete any existing quests.
Your Twitch chat can also vote on pivotal moments, with the choice to help or hinder the streamer. Will the community vote to answer the incoming investor call, or decide to ignore it completely and get back to browsing Webscape?
Let’s Build a Dungeon is available to wishlist on Steam and is coming to PC and Xbox in
partnership with Kowloon Nights. For more updates, sign up on the Springloaded website.
