The official website went up yesterday. It’s a dungeon crawler/rpg game where the dungeons, enemies, and weapons are totally random. There’s a video of actual gameplay on the website: [http://www.pixergygame.com/](http://www.pixergygame.com/) We hope to have a beta available to the public within the next few weeks. ---

I think it’s really cool you’re making a game. Doesn’t really look like my kinda game, but cool dude. I want to design video games. ---

I like the idea of having everything be totally random. Is the random-ness of the dungeon a true randomization, or does it pick from a list of possibilities? If the former, would it be possible to load a map that is unplayable? ---

> [@patrickcondon](#): > > I like the idea of having everything be totally random. Is the random-ness of the dungeon a true randomization, or does it pick from a list of possibilities? If the former, would it be possible to load a map that is unplayable? The generator spawns rooms on a grid. A set number of blocks spawn randomly within each room. Each block then has a certain chance of becoming a chest, a hole, being destroyed, or remaining a block. So there are an infinite number of possibilities, but the dungeon is always navigable. > [@AgentKuo](#): > > I think it’s really cool you’re making a game. Doesn’t really look like my kinda game, but cool dude. I want to design video games. so why dont you? ---

Nothing computer-generated is random. It’s impossible for an intelligent system to produce a random pattern (already sounds like an oxymoron). But yeah, it will be a pattern, but the pattern may be completely different every time (sounds random…I know, lol). At least that’s what I remember form learning things. I could be totally wrong, and by our human perspective, it will look completely random (because technically, to us, it will be.) ---

I’m very interested in trying this though… I really like the idea. ---

If anyone actually wants to try it when it comes out, subscribe to the YouTube Channel or become a member of the blog. When you see the official 1.0 trailer, it’ll be released. We’re thinking of making combat more spell oriented rather than melee. I hope to have the first spell book or two implemented today. ---

Wow the main character looks so much bigger than what I’d expect him to look in these types of games. Looking forward to seeing the final product! ---
