Introducing Dungeons of Infinity

A talented individual known as Justin Bohemier has transformed the classic Super Nintendo hit, A Link to the Past, into a procedurally-generated roguelike dungeon crawler. Over four years in development using Gamemaker Studio with the original assets, the game 'Dungeons of Infinity' aims to offer a new and challenging experience for fans.

Key Features:

Procedural Generation - Each playthrough offers unique layouts, enemies, and items.
Link's Nemesis Aghanim - The ultimate challenge lies in encountering Link's arch-enemy, Aghanim. Survival depends on navigating the dungeons until reaching this final boss.

The creator emphasizes that no continues or extra lives are available, adding to the game’s difficulty curve.

What do you think about applying roguelike elements to classic games like 'A Link to the Past'? Have you encountered similar fan projects?

Do I seriously need to sign up on discord to get this?

Yeah, I was annoyed by that as well, but if you like a link to the past, it’s worth it.

I disagree. Discord asked for my phone number when I tried to sign up, probably because I used a throwaway mail address and it detected that. No thanks.

For what it's worth, I've had my discord account for like 8 years at this point and have never received a text from them. I guess they might have sold it off somewhere but i get more political spam then anything else lol

The phone number requirement is a recent change I believe to deter people from creating multiple accounts, so any old timers probably didn't have to use a phone number to sign up.

I didn't comment on the requirement or not, I just know I added my number long ago and have had my account for 8 years
