This is a secret project of sorts I WAS going to reveal at the Fall Expo, but things have been going way too smoothly in development and I have something playable NOW.

So, for those who don't know, a Randomizer shuffles some parts of a game around. I have made several of these Randomizers. This one is simply a Return to something familiar.

In fact, do I even need to say anything here? Try out the beta, have fun, and report any interesting bugs. There is nothing different this time. Nothing at all.

I hope with a little testing plus a little more content the next beta will appear in the Fall Expo. It should be surprising.





...well, okay. It is a little different. It is much shorter than others, so you can complete it in no time at all. And then play it again with a different seed. Or skip the middle script and just play with the all the content not randomized.

WARNING: Randomized gameplay may be highly addictive, and attractive to speedrunners and great for races. The creator of this takes no responsibility for lack of sleep, getting lost, increased social activity, and missing Tunics.

This sounds more like my cup of tea of sorts. What is the (planned if not implemented) dungeon count going to be at? :o

In my run, I found 9 dungeons. IDK if there's more hidden (HoF sure loves his secrets) but it's very possible to beat the game in a couple hours. From the opening settings it appears there's 5 sets of dungeons.

 

...I just got infinite bomb bag as a starting item. Assuming that's not coming from a small pool of starting items, I want my luckiest man alive award.

Considering that the player is only tasked with only doing a single quest (aka a single set of nine dungeons)  You could go absolutely ham and add the additional Randomizer BS/Outlands/Alpha Z1-style dungeon pools to the roster.  I'd like to be able to see them in single sets like those that are already here.

So this happened. Hit EX3 and this popped up. Not sure if there's some feature that either isn't implemented yet or a vestige of a feature from one of the other Randomizers, or if it's just some oddball glitch.

I have uploaded a new beta that may be what I have for the Expo. For now, consider it an "early access" of sorts, and any bugs found before late Thursday - early Friday should be fixed before the Expo.

 

I am intentionally keeping information about this limited until the expo. Right now, this is just blind beta testing. However, I can confirm one of you found a (currently) secret feature that will help out remembering things.

 

I intend to reveal all the details for the expo, including the future of this project. Some of you may have a good guess what I still have planned.

 

Thanks to those of you who are playing this to maybe find any bugs. It should help make this a quality quest.

Very helpful secret feature, indeed.
