Underlevel is a game where you play as a horde of skeletons while a player is raiding the dungeon, trying to get as much XP as they can so they level up and potentially kill the boss at the end - it's your job to stop that from happening. Try your best to rescue all the skeletons, destroy all the loot and keep the player from levelling up before they make it to the final floor.

This is a pretty fun game! One thing I find it really needs, though, is a full screen mode. During the action, it's very easy for the mouse cursor to leave the bounds of the window, causing your skeletons to get lost. Or even worse, when trying to dodge, clicking outside of the window and causing the game to lose focus! It's also kind of hard to see in such a small window?

This game appears to be incredibly enjoyable! If it's possible, would you consider developing a version compatible with Mac systems? However, if that proves to be unfeasible, please know that I'm still greatly enthusiastic about the prospect of playing this game, as it looks undeniably captivating.

Hi! Can we stream this game (with credit and a link to this page in the description)? It looks sooo fun to play! ^^

(+2)

Of course, you are welcome to stream it! I mean, you're welcome to stream basically any game on Itchio so long as you give credit haha 

(+1)

Yay!! Thank you! :D

Any game you say? Corrupted kingdoms stream gonna go crazy

I'd like to ask for a time out mechanic if you have no skeletons remaining in a level and the knight is stuck trying to break pots because its pathfinding keeps changing between two pots, to prevent the game soft locking itself.

Happened to me on the last floor of a run in the spiral dead end tile, pic related, knight kept running between one and the other without ever committing to either, eventually had to quit the game.

lmaooo, ive never seen this before!! sorry this happened!!!

(+1)

Poor knight suffered choice paralysis

On my third attempt i finally have beaten the knight, and i had 0 skeletons remaning.

Great game, absolutely LOVE it! But could you update it and remove object 000056D8? It crashes a tool im trying to use to mod it.

Would love to see this on the playdate.

Loved this so much, it's so cute and fun. I want more!! I love the art, I love the sound, the gameplay is great. I love the final fight too, actually adorable though so simple. <3

(+1)

I really enjoy the game and was glad to see the crashing bug got fixed, its a fun silly idea and I hope you add more to it, maybe different terrain and challenges on different floors to add replayability.

(+1)

Absolute amazing game!

This was absolutely hilarious and fun. I love how you flipped the dungeon crawler on its head and went with the baddies are the good guys. You all did a very great job congrats!

(+2)

just phenomenal, what a fun creative game!

(+1)

Sadly got the same problem as a few others here. Would love to see this get a steam version someday though!

(+1)

I put out an update, hopefully its fixed!

(+1)

Downlading because the knight looks like the Moon RPG knight.

(+1)

(+2)

Absolutely a great game. Love the idea and I love the mechanics all the way through. 

(+1)

absolutely love the animation here

(+2)

Wow that was so cute! I really liked it.

(+3)

very good concept very good execution, really fantastic work. i would love to see this as an asymmetric multiplayer games, with multiple character controlling all the minions. very hectic, very fun!

it would be cool to have one player playing the skeletons and one player the knight so each side is fighting to get to the resources first

I've included Underlevel at 0:00 in a video covering the GMTK Game Jam.

(+2)

Played the post jam version. Absolutely amazing and hilarious game lol.

I guess the pathfinding of the skeletons could be a little better, but honestly, this is a really good game lol. Something that I'll probably play again and again from time to time

(+1)(-1)

This was my first time experiencing a game with this type of concept, and it was Amazing! Would be pretty interesting if this could be expanded upon with more mechanics if you have any interest in doing so, also I made a vid on it! ( had a few audio issues but  I wanted to give my raw reaction to this gem.)

It seems to be an homage to Dokuro. At least I felt so.

The music is really great and what a game to be made in 48 hours, Great job everyone

(+2)

Really stupid hard. Satisfying to beat

(+1)

Extremely fun and original game! Really polished for a 48 hour game jam game with great art and music!! Is there somewhere i can listen to the music i would love to add these themes to my playlist ^^

(+2)

A really nice concept for a game. It's hard because of skeletons random tripping over nothing or going through enclosed areas, but overall - doable.

This is such a fun game! The art is endearing, and the hero is a great blend of goofy and terrifying when he's catching up. It took me a level to figure out what I was supposed to be doing, but I think that's my fault for not reading the game page, and it's definitely intuitive once you start playing.
