BÖSS
Entry for the GMTK Game Jam 2023.
BÖSS
Might even say "Böss Monster".
You are the Boss Monster of a Dungeon and need to fight off those dreaded heroes that try to steal your gold and kill you.
Place dungeon rooms strategically to dispose of the heroes before they reach your chambers, making difficult decisions on how to best build your dungeon.
YOU CAN STACK CARDS! This isn't really obvious in game and hard to see on the screenshot, so I'll put it here in the hopes of people seeing it. :D
Details on the fight system
- When two cards fight, they deal damage to each other simultaneously.
- When one card gets defeated, the card below gets activated and fights the hero, too.
- Bonuses (such as the archer) are not recalculated if a card is defeated in that round
It's a Game Jam...
...so some things I wanted to add didn't make it.
Barely any sounds unfortunately, some last minute issues prevented them from playing properly.
And it's probably hilariously unbalanced, but that's a GameJam game for you. Considering this was a solo project, I'm quite proud.
Sorry I forgot to add an Exit Button - so if you're playing on Windows, Alt+F4 is the way to exit the game 😅.
...so lots of things I thought about didn't have a chance to make it in.
- Status effects
- Boss abilities
- Hero abilities
- Lots of cool room abilities
- Of course more rooms and heroes
- A deck management and unlock system (right now you just get random rooms out of the entire pool)

Interesting would love to see a Full game of this
Quite fun interesting take. Difficulty ramps up majorly quite quickly lol
Thank you. Yeah, in my attempts it felt too easy, I guess I over-buffed the heroes to compensate. :D Highest score I've seen so far was 10 rounds.
