No Heroes Belong Here

A reverse dungeon-crawler where you are the bad guy. Pick up cards every turn and use them to summon monsters - don't let the hero through! Made for the Ludum Dare Game Jam #55.

Made by just me, with the help of some free music and the occasional sound effects, mostly in the first 48 hours.

I spent the last day trying to create an auto-balancer that would prevent some levels from being too hard, but ended up spending an unproductive 5 hours trying to fix one bug and ultimately ended up ditching the balancer due to performance reasons (turns out trying to predict every possible move the player can make quickly gets expensive). #regrets
