Creative Director Jean-Maxime Moris tells me they settled on three players because that was the “sweet spot” where cooperative play wasn’t too overwhelming or too boring.Įndless Dungeon is a satisfying loot-based twin-stick shooter where players will have to stay on their toes as they explore the station room by room and hold back enemy waves that swarm the Crystal Bot from all directions. I only got to play this by myself with an AI companion, but the full game will let up to three players make their way through the dungeon cooperatively. If they die or the Crystal Bot is destroyed, they’ll have to start the run from scratch. To do this, they must guard and guide a Crystal Bot from Crystal Slot to Crystal Slot throughout the space station. In Endless Dungeon, you play as an eclectic cast of sci-fi heroes trying to escape a space station that they are marooned on. There are some clear improvements that can be made, but Amplitude Studios is definitely on track to become more than a one-genre studio with Endless Dungeon.ĮNDLESS™ Dungeon Open Dev Trailer Endless genre possibilities I went hands-on with Endless Dungeon’s first OpenDev (Amplitude’s in-house version of early access) build and discovered that roguelikes and tower defense games have a lot more in common than I thought. There is a commonality between the two because it’s the same people working on both.” If you like how we look at strategy in 4X, then I’m pretty sure you’d love how we look at strategy in action. “ Endless Dungeon is one of those forms where you can explore tactics with friends during intense action. “What we want to show is that strategy and tactics can take a lot of different forms,” Amplitude Studio head Romain de Waubert told Digital Trends in an interview. Building on a formula first explored in an experimental 2014 game Dungeon of the Endless, Amplitude Studios wants to show that its 4X expertise applies to more action-heavy games with Endless Dungeon.
Rather, it’s a unique mix of a twin-stick shooter, tower defense, and roguelike.
However, the next Endless game, Endless Dungeon, isn’t a strategy game.
