relee2:48am - Another day spent in bed for eight hours after at least eight hours of sleep. What a sorry way to live a life. :/
Anyways I'm up now and I've progressed past my social time with my friends and I can focus more on my work or play, and I think I'd rather work right now. That means more map patterns!
3:22am - Things are heating up as I play with shapes and figure out dungeon design pattern possibilities.
3:50am - I've been charting out different lengths of dungeon. It looks like odd numbers do it best, but I can mix it up by randomly putting a room after the start or not.
Then there's a loop of rooms, one route on either side, and each has a length of 1, 2, 3, etc. Or, I can make one route long and one route short by modifying where the start is, adding one room to one route and subtracting one from the other.
Longer dungeons seem more interesting shape-wise but I'm not sure yet what the right size will be. I suppose that will come with play testing.
5:11am - Ultimately I've only got four patterns that fit in with what I'm doing right now. I might be able to add more later but with limited gameplay elements I don't have a lot to pick from.
For now I'm going to finish up this and do some gaming before bed.
