Withered: The Lost Dungeon
A downloadable little game for Windows
Many hapless adventures have met their end in the buried castle of Lord Skuldax. In the wake of a mysterious plague, transforming prisoners and guards alike into withered monsters, the treasures of Lord Skuldax seemed ripe for the taking. However, the lost dungeons may now be more dangerous than ever...

This is my first publicly released game! Inspired by the Godot engine's powerful new release, Withered combines retro aesthetics and hardcore sensibilites with modern features for a brief, but difficult experience intended to take a few attempts. There are multiple paths and valid strategies, so every death can be an opportunity to try something new.

Excellent! Thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay and retro art style. I particularly liked playing around with the dynamic systems; it made for some great emergent gameplay. Also, reading all the comments from other people describing their different playstyles just goes to show that this is a good immersive sim. Will definitely be following your future content...
Haven't beaten it yet, but I played and enjoyed for like an hour. Really nice aesthetic and overall vibe in how it plays, feels a lot like an old school tabletop rpg dungeon!
I found the most effective strategy to be to repeatedly throw the hatchet into enemies, at least until it glitched through the ground and vanished lol
Loved it! Great atmosphere and tempo, intuitive gameplay, was fun dropping both weapons in front of Mr Creeps cause I confused the controls first. Gameplay gets gets a bit stale after a while as the creeps lose a bit of their fright after the first 10 kills. AI could be a tad more scary. Enjoyed the mini lore! No saving made it a thrill. I see how you've tried all the various dynamics and prop that make a game, well done and congratulations on your first release. I hope to be there some day, too!
game repeatedly crashes when starting dungeon part. It breaks when going into the settings menu as well. On windows. Anyone else having this issue?
Oh no! I just uploaded a debug version that should have better stability, especially with older laptops. Let me know if it works!
ty
What a great style.
It is so coo
Hey, saw your email and gave the game a spin! I happened to be checking my email while downloading, so it all worked out anyway lol
Was pretty fun! Slight jank, but nothing that detracted from the experience, overall great job.
