The Entombed Dungeon Creator is an expansion currently in development for Entombed. It allows the player to create their own weapons, armor, monsters, job classes, and more!
When will the Entombed Dungeon Creator be released?
I anticipate to have the Entombed Dungeon Creator ready for release in late 2010. However, a test version will be available to everyone who owns the full version of Entombed sooner.
How much will the expansion cost?
$14.99 USD (tentatively)
Does the Entombed Dungeon Creator require Entombed to run?
Yes. The Entombed Dungeon Creator is based off of the Entombed engine. You'll need to full version to play the expansion.
What is editable?
Most things! Anything that is now internal to Entombed will be opened up to the player.
How do you create, say, a new item? Do you need scripting knowledge?
The Entombed Dungeon Creator will have editors for all its creation tools. None of these tools require scripting.
You don't -need- to learn how to script, but what if you -want- to script? To add a powerful new kind of spell or something?
I might get to scriptable spells and abilities, but it largely depends on how well everything comes together and how much interest there is for scripting.
If scripting is added, what scripting engine will the Entombed Dungeon Creator use?
If I add a scripting engine to the Entombed Dungeon Creator, it'll very likely be Ruby.
What good does rating a player-made dungeon highly?
If you play a particularly fun dungeon, rate it highly, and it'll be more visible to other players. After we've accumulated a few truly remarkable dungeons, I'm considering mashing them together for a unique challenge to players; tentatively titled: The Entombed Dungeon Challenge 2010.
Will other expansions be developed?
Well, there were hints about that…
What about updates to Entombed?
The full version of Entombed will continue to get new features and updates.
