Dungeon Crawler Templates

Create dungeon crawler games with Summer Engine. Get inspired by templates below, or start from scratch with AI.

A dungeon crawler is descent into danger one room at a time. You push deeper into a maze of corridors and chambers, fighting monsters, finding loot, and managing your resources against the risk of going too far. Whether grid-based or free movement, the tension is in not knowing what the next door holds.

A template gives you that loop running: a controllable explorer, generated or hand-built dungeon layouts, enemies in the rooms, loot and inventory, and a health and resource system. With Summer Engine, the AI game engine compatible with Godot 4, you expand it by talking: ask for a new floor with tougher enemies, a locked door that needs a key, or a trap room, and the AI wires the layouts and encounters with you while you crawl your own dungeon to test the pacing.
