Beneath the Keep

Beneath the Keep is a third-person 3D action dungeon crawler built around melee combat, room-by-room exploration, environmental puzzles, and boss encounters.

Fight through a dungeon filled with locked doors, pressure switches, hidden rooms, treasure chests, enemy encounters, and puzzle-gated progression. Dodge, strike, and time your attacks carefully as you push deeper into the dungeon and face a multi-phase rock golem boss.

This build focuses on the core dungeon experience: combat feel, room progression, puzzle solving, and pickups.

Goal

Explore the dungeon, solve its room puzzles, collect keys and treasure, defeat enemies, and survive long enough to bring down the boss.

Controls

• WASD: Move
• Space Bar: Jump
• Q: Roll
• Mouse Click: Attack

Notes

This is a work in progress, so feedback on combat feel, puzzle clarity, difficulty, bugs, and overall pacing is welcome.
