LootDungeon

🧭 Inspiration

We wanted to create a game that captures the thrill of looting under pressure where every second counts and greed can be your downfall. Inspired by classic dungeon crawlers and battle royale tension, Loot Dungeon mixes treasure hunting, danger, and chaos into one intense experience.

⚔️ What It Does

Players descend into a deadly dungeon filled with traps, monsters, and hidden treasures. The mission is to collect as many coins and gems as possible before the dungeon collapses. Find weapons in chests to fight other players, battle hordes of skeletons and their king, use potions to stay alive, and race to the exit before time runs out.

🛠️ How We Built It

We built Loot Dungeon using a combination of creative and technical tools:

• Blender for 3D modeling and low-poly asset creation
  
• TypeScript for gameplay logic and interactive systems
  
• Photoshop and Illustrator for textures, UI, and branding
  
• Meta Horizon’s GenAI for generating every sound effect in the game
  

Using Meta Horizon’s GenAI, we created all the in-game audio — from sword swings, coin and gem pickups, potion drinks, and lava bubbling, to skeleton growls and damage sounds. Every sound you hear in the game was generated using GenAI to make the world feel reactive and alive.

🧩 Challenges We Ran Into

Balancing difficulty and pacing was tough, especially ensuring performance stability during combat and dungeon collapse sequences. Designing AI behaviors for enemies and syncing multiplayer interactions also pushed the limits of the platform.

🏆 Accomplishments That We're Proud Of

We created a fully functional multiplayer dungeon system that feels alive, complete with real-time traps, potion pickups, and environmental effects. The visual design, atmosphere, and sense of urgency truly capture that last-minute escape adrenaline.

We’re also proud of how we leveraged GenAI to produce immersive sound design that enhances gameplay and builds tension with every action.

📚 What We Learned

We learned how to optimize dynamic environments for performance, build scalable combat logic, and create immersive storytelling through sound and environment. We also explored the potential of GenAI in sound design and discovered how powerful it can be when paired with traditional creative tools.

🚀 What's Next for Loot Dungeon

We are expanding with new weapons, bosses, and combat mechanics, and testing seasonal updates with limited-time loot events. We are excited to grow Loot Dungeon into a full competitive looter experience.
