Megaquest

Mod for Dicey Dungeons (2D turn-based roguelike)

Megaquest adds 36 new episodes*, 5 new enemies, 400+ new items and reworks almost all of the base game enemies.
Each episode introduces new unique rules, such as:
• All enemies are vampires!
• You and the enemies swap items after each battle!
• The dungeon has extra floors!
• ...and many more!

I designed the gameplay of the mod and coded it, and Callum Clayton drew the enemies.

* - Episodes in Dicey Dungeons can be described as "unique run rulesets", each employing different mechanics and item and enemy pools.

Dicey Wastelands

Mod for Nuclear Throne Together (top-down action roguelike)

Dicey Wastelands is a clone of Dicey Dungeons made inside Nuclear Throne.
It puts a unique spin on Nuclear Throne weapons, enemies and gameplay mechanics by fitting them into the new turn-based deckbuilder style of the game.

The mod was originally created by me, and later was maintained and updated by AgentCucco.

Mystic's Expert Mode

Mod for Nuclear Throne Together (top-down action roguelike)

This mod makes the game HARDER.

You will fight a lot more enemies, enemies will have more health, bosses will have harder attacks, and occasionally, you will encounter stronger versions of regular enemies...

Mystic's Items

Mod for Risk of Rain 2 (3D action roguelike)

Mystic's Items adds 50 new items to Risk of Rain 2, a game all about collecting various items that give bizarre effects (for comparison, the base game has about 200 items). All of the items were made with the vanilla balance and theming in mind, and should not feel out of place.

I created this mod jointly with marwan60, with me being in charge of programming, and marwan60 creating the models to give the mod its visual aspect. Both of us contributed to designing the gameplay of the mod.

The mod has received numerous updates and balance patches, taking into account the feedback provided by players, and eventually broke 1 million downloads.

Bulwark's Haunt

Mod for Risk of Rain 2 (3D action roguelike)

Bulwark's Haunt is a Halloween-themed mod that adds an entire new ending to the game set in a ghost realm. Spirits of every enemy that was slain by your hands will resurface here for revenge. You will not escape their wrath.
Some of the enemy waves will have a random modifier active, increasing the difficulty of the challenge even further.

This mod placed #1 in the Halloween Modjam 2022 and was created in 4 days, with marwan60 providing a 3D model for the Haunted Sword used to access the ghost realm.

Rising Tides

Mod for Risk of Rain 2 (3D action roguelike)

Rising Tides is a content mod that adds new threats to the game: 2 new pre-loop elite types, 5 loop-exclusive elite types, and 1 new enemy.

Among the new elite types:
• Magnetic - drains gold from nearby players, pushes players into the ground on hit, drops less gold on death
• Aquamarine - invulnerable when not attacking, traps the player in a bubble on hit
• Realgar - applies 'Scar' on hit that deals damage to ALL team members
• Phenakite - spawns with several fake clones that take and deal no damage, steals an item from the player on hit

The new enemy, the Mother Mushrum, is stationary, but creates spores that damage and slow players and heal enemies. If the player is too far away, the Mother Mushrum will bury itself into the ground and unburrow next to the player.

This mod was created by me and marwan60, with me writing the code, marwan60 creating 3D models, and the both of us designing the gameplay aspect of the mod.
