Kuroppoi Sai no Dunjon is my soon-to-be-released D-Mod. It's meant as a little distraction from Scenia, so don't expect something spectacular. I'm already quite progressed with the game, so expect it to be up soon.

It will be a large romp (+- 30 minutes) about Dink finding himself in a mysterious dungeon. I guess you could call this game a dungeon crawler. Expect heavy focus on combat (but should be fun, think Diablo) and some puzzles.

There will (hardly) be no new graphics. I try to make it look nice with the standard graphics, but again, don't expect anything great.

What this is going to be is an above average and hopefully fun little adventure to keep you occupied for a while, while waiting for the biggies like Cloud Castle 3 and Scenia.

Since I'm feeling fairly snarky... why is it that lately pretty much every screenshot submitted lately is of something totally nondescript and uninteresting? Seriously, if you're going to post a picture, at least give is something that makes us actually look forward to the mod.

Wow... seeing that screenshot after reading your post made me laugh. Hard.

One time I tried to coerce a girl into engaging in intimate encounters with me. I sent her a screenshot of my pants on the floor as a preview.

/ok not really

It's not that the particular scene looks bad; in fact, it looks very good in comparison to the map design in several dozen D-Mods. But it's not particularly exciting, either. It looks a lot like one of the several filler screens in the original Dink... it's just another screen to walk through and nothing more.

To truly pique anyone's interest, you need a screenshot of something unusual, something intriguing.

You're probably right, it's just that there aren't any interesting screens in this D-Mod.

So in a way, this screenshot serves its purpose: it gives a good impression of the game.

How about you take a screenshot of some interesting dialog? That's one way to make it stand out, especially if it's of some kind of weird non sequitur.

If it's supposed to be Japanese, at least there's an "of" in there.
