So the first thing we decided to change when running through the dungeon was the size of the first room - always amazing when your first big change is in the first place you see, right? We felt this room was a bit small and didn't give the proper introduction to the ship as a big and creepy place the way it should.
Same thing with one of the rooms on the third floor - previously we've been making a lot of too large rooms so I started making them a lot smaller since I always overestimated the sizes. Turns out I've gone too far the other way not instead, haha! Oh well, for this room it will be an easy fix since it hasn't even been properly made yet.
Next, there's a room where we thought we'd have some sort of bullet hell thing going on, but we've decided to change that for two reasons: one being that the boss already has a lot of bullet hell elements, and second, the room would be a nice opportunity to embrace the creepiness factor of the world instead. So, instead of an exciting bullet hell, there will be some creepy examining things in an abandoned ghastly kitchen, trying to figure out where a lost key is.
Other than that, there have mostly been minor edits and changes to make, such as more details in some rooms and added features in others, like a bookcase that will fire books at you, and possibly an encounter with a possessed refrigerator and oven - it depends on how further testing goes.
This whole dungeon is pretty strange right now as it's very finished but also very unfinished, many of the rooms are ready but the encounters and puzzles are not. It's possible we may need to redesign some parts if the puzzles we want to make don't work out, but we'll see! Needless to say, right now we're doing a lot of discussing and testing back and forth, so we'll see where things end up when all is said and done.
