Mellow Rib - A DK1 Sandbox

[Zyraen]

Mellow Rib

A Sandbox level for DK1 where you control Bridges and can pit your 2 Keeper opponents against each other or the Heroes. You can ignore the Keepers as well and simply destroy the Hero Dungeon Heart, just watch out for the Avatar. Use various Rooms to adjust the difficulty of the Hero Spawns.

For KeeperFX, you can find it under Campaigns, called "Sandbox Level"

Hmm anyone have any feedback on the map? Hope to hear from you.

Lovely, it's a "My Pet Dungeon" for DK1. That's pretty cool.

A little odd that if you take over enemy Dungeons suddenly heroes swarm the place, though. ^^

Little comment - if you tunnel up to the lava, the enemy keepers will send their dragons at you. Makes ignoring them a little more taxing, considering ignoring them might lead to creature deaths.

That's true, I had that issue with dragons too. Should I simply remove dragons from the creature pool? and likewise for hellhounds.

I think I'll just make the AI not build Temple for that map, it should solve the problem.

[Funderbunk]

Dragons are too awesome, don't take them out. Perhaps you could lock the A.I. keepers in with hero walls?

[Zyraen]

Dragons for you but not for Enemy Keepers?

Quite annoying, you cannot destroy the heart of the hero keeper, because when you enter the rooms which are linked to the hearth, heroes will spam in and keep coming, as you kill them..
