Riposte Games & Co, the good people behind Mini Guns, just dropped the first details and a trailer for their upcoming title, Dungeon Stars, a side scrolling hack & slash dungeon crawler. Dungeon Stars is a aiming to be an "evolution of the classic dungeon crawler with addictive button-smashing action," where players will master swords and spells, button mashing their way through hordes of enemies, with randomly generated rooms aiming to keep you on your toes, mixing things up so you'll never know what's around the next corner. Does the next room contain a healing fountain, a rare treasure, or the Toxic Ogre King? Better get your cartoony ass in there and find out, son! If you delve deep enough, you may face the legendary eater of light, the Conqueror Worm, and stab him (or her) right in their wormy face!
