Chase KoenekeHOST
Wow.
Bobby PeaseHOST
Um, we are going to be talking about that for the lion's share of this episode, but I was telling Chase that I have taken a quick little side step away from all the heavy hitters I've been playing this month for a game that we covered on our preview of August, called Blood Dungeon.
Bobby PeaseHOST
This is from the Nidhogg developers, Messhof.
Bobby PeaseHOST
And we were talking about this being a Chase-adjacent video game, and you were giving me a lot of grief about...
Bobby PeaseHOST
Oh, yeah
Chase KoenekeHOST
... because those games have always felt great, Nidhogg and Nidhogg 2.
Chase KoenekeHOST
So I, I'm really curious to hear about your time with Blood Dungeon and, and-
Bobby PeaseHOST
Yeah
BenHOST
This has not been a very good set for me, but I've been playing some other stuff.
BenHOST
I've been playing a lot of blood dungeon recently.
BenHOST
If you know that game.
TylerHOST
No, I don't.
Jaren WadeHOST
And it was something that we mentioned during a Steam Next Fest a few weeks ago, Matt.
Jaren WadeHOST
And that is Blood Dungeon.
Jaren WadeHOST
Of course, this comes from the team that gave or this comes from Messhoff, which has given us Ned Hogg in the past.
Jaren WadeHOST
And I remember I was really high on the demo when I tried just because, oh, this is their take on a Survivors-like game where, you know, you go around these levels, you level up, you pick your upgrades, and then you try to make it to the boss.
Jaren WadeHOST
You can't go back home.
Jaren WadeHOST
But yeah, with...
Jaren WadeHOST
Blood Dungeon, I never felt like I was approaching that godlike state, that all-powerful state, where even though I was making...
Jaren WadeHOST
So with Blood Dungeon, there are different levels.
Jeff GrubbHOST
Just a few more news stories here.
Jeff GrubbHOST
Uh, uh, Anna from Spelunky 2 is now in Blood Dungeon.
Jeff GrubbHOST
Uh, I just like Blood Dungeon a lot, and, uh, Mark from, from the studio over there at Messhof, uh, mentioned that, "Hey, we put Anna in there." I'm like, "Okay, yeah, let's tell the people." Uh, so yesterday's Blood Dungeon update added Anna Uh, I think her name is Anna Spelunky from Spelunky 2.
Jeff GrubbHOST
As a playable character, she shows up in a new underground section of the bunkhouse called the Annex.
Jeff GrubbHOST
Uh, she's got a gimmick, which is extremely Spelunky.
Jeff GrubbHOST
She also starts with a torch that burns enemies on contact.
Jeff GrubbHOST
There's a few other references to, uh, Spelunky 2 in there.
Jeff GrubbHOST
But Seth, do you ever play any Blood Dungeon? 'Cause that's like the, uh-
Lucy JamesGUEST
