Create your own 16-bit inspired action adventures
Today marks a monumental day for gamers and dungeon creators alike, as rokaplay and FIRECHICK have announced the launch of Super Dungeon Maker on the Nintendo Switch eShop and Steam.
Inspired by classic SNES era games such as The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and Super Mario Maker, Super Dungeon Maker lets players craft their own 16-bit top-down levels with just a few steps.
The easy to use dungeon creator allows players to make exciting stages in mere minutes, whether they’re using a mouse & keyboard or Joy-cons. Players can choose how many levels, items, enemies, traps, switches, and hidden objects they want and create pixel art-style dungeons of varying themes and difficulties.
Once they’re satisfied with their dungeons, they can share them with their friends, family, and community with cross-platform level sharing.
Having been on Steam Early Access since February 2022, Super Dungeon Maker has already amassed over 3,000 brilliant, varied stages from its passionate and talented community. In addition to the built-in dungeons, players can also try out the stages created by their peers or use them as inspiration for their own.
The developers have also chosen to make the game’s dungeon editor 100% free for academic purposes. The easy to use level creator has already been used in several universities across Europe and North America to teach students the ins and outs of level design.
“Super Dungeon Maker is for all fans of retro gaming who dreamed of being able to create their own 16-bit adventures,” said Linda Treffler, Co-Director and Artist at FIRECHICK. “We can’t wait to see what you all come up with!”
Super Dungeon Maker is available on the Nintendo Switch eShop and Steam for $19.99 / €19.99. For more information, visit the official site at https://www.rokaplay.com/super-dungeon-maker/.
