Ahahah yes, I actually spotted your game some time ago (by the way, great work!) — around the time of the last Pixelated Festival!
Of course we credited Pita, even though, like you, we used it as a base and then reworked and added tons of stuff!

This week I want to share two loading screens created by our artist, one of them even became our cover image!
They’re also references to two very famous memes… can you spot which ones?

PS: only two weeks to launch!

Shitty Dungeon (reprise)
In the end we had to change the JP title (publisher rules 👉 クレイジーハイパーダンジョン).
But we laughed so much we couldn’t just let it vanish… so we hid a little reminder inside the game. Btw we got 4k+ wishlist in the end!
Anyway, here’s the video!

This week I’ve got a fresh story to make you laugh!
We went a bit viral in Japan😅
A provisional translation turned the game’s title into “Shitty Dungeon”💩
Everyone laughed (at the name, not the game😉)… and so did I (a lot)!
Read here (autotranslate):

This week we're showing off a brand new video that explains the basics of combat in The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles!
These are just the basics… but of course, things get waaaay more intense later on!

This week, just a tribute.
In our game there are three quirky bros: Alphonse, Pascal and Robert Brack.
They’re a nod to Alvaro Vitali, an iconic Italian comedy actor from the ’70s/’80s, who passed away 2 days ago.
Even if you didn’t know him, we wanted to honor his spirit.
Ciao Alvaro e grazie! 💛

This week I want to share a small big milestone: all 50 levels of the game are finally done!
Here’s the What’s New from the latest dev build.
I’m honestly really happy we made it this far.

Do you like to chat, snoop around, or smash some heads?
Pick your style: three distinct playstyles to choose from!
Your choice has real consequences, shaping the gameplay in both visible ways and subtle, unique twists.
Try it yourself!

We just added a small but impactful visual tweak to our game, The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles!
Each biome now has custom filler art between UI windows—sometimes even overlapping them.
Doesn’t change gameplay, but it really boosts the vibe!

Our dungeon crawler The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles now has a brand new intro screen!
26 parallax layers. Twice as many as Shadow of the Beast. (Not that we’d ever compare ourselves to such royalty… 😉)

Or game is a dungeon crawler adventure with a strong humorous twist, inspired by classic RPGs from the ‘80s and ‘90s. The story follows two cousins competing to explore the Hyper-Dungeon, a chaotic labyrinth born from a magical collapse, filled with wacky characters, deadly traps and secrets!
