LD54 - Dwarf Looter
Play as a greedy Dwarf as he explores, loots, gets rich, and starts again.
Dwarf Looter is some kind of Rogue Like / RPG / Dungeon Crawler / Item Management Hell where you have to explore endless ruins for dwarf profit without biting off more than you can chew.
Small Tips:
- Every items including food and treasures are a possible weapon, hat or shield. Of course not every item is equally helpful, be creative and adapt. Your inventory will always feel desperately small, throw what you don't need (but you can never get it back!).
- When you start to have a lot of treasures on you, going back to the shop will become increasingly difficulty as you have to fight the Gold Fever every time you want to go up.
- Fights are tough if you are unprepared, but if you are empty handed it's probably easier to flee and try another path!
- Sometimes the dungeon generator can be a bit rough for early builds, don't hesitate to come back to the shop and generate a new one.

Fun game especially with using salamis as headgear. Meeting demons who delete me randomly sucks though. Maybe I shouldn't have sold my best gear for money.
Pretty good for 72 hours :)
A couple of issues I saw:
- There's something glitchy with the initiative calculation, which I noticed when I had the diamond undies. It jumps around.
- At some point, I found an obstacle had blocked my return path, which was a soft lock. So the obstacles can appear after dungeon generation, it seems. It was when returning from a very long sequence of rooms.
A good and well balance game, I have been stuck on it way longer than I thought I would be playing it. At one point, I thought the game was over because some part of me felt like I was too strong, however, fastly enough I've been killed due to my own pride.
Highly recommended, if you're not afraid to enjoy a game !
