The Final Show is a multiplayer roguelike inspired by Dress to Impress and Lethal Company, where players have a limited amount of time to equip their gear before navigating through a series of dungeons, gaining experience from enemies to progress to the boss fight and unlock more dungeon floors. Our project aims to provide a fun and engaging experience for players while also giving us, the developers, an opportunity to sharpen our programming skills and gain experience in collaborating within a team environment. The purpose of this document is to solidify our understanding regarding our current progress and further plan our next steps going forward with the development of The Final Show.
The main goal of The Final Show is to provide a fun, unique dungeon-crawler roguelike experience. By balancing The Final Show’s simple base mechanics with increasing difficulty and randomization, we aim to provide a gameplay experience which engages new players and keeps seasoned players coming back for more. The intended audience for our product is for those who are seeking a fun, multiplayer experience with friends and family or for those who like games similar to other co-op exploration games such as Content Warning, Lethal Company, or Phasmophobia.
