Replay: Deadly Rooms of Death
Deadly Rooms of Death is a turn-based puzzle game; one turn being the amount of time it takes Beethro, the central character, to move one square or to swing his sword by 45 degrees. DROD is very much a puzzle game, but unlike any other you may have played before. It is actually the sequel to the critically acclaimed DROD: King Dugan's Dungeon, and both were created by Caravel Games. [review]
What started out as a thesis project for Jason Tye at Michigan State University, turned into an entry for the upcoming Independent Games Festival. Co-developed with his thesis chair Brian Winn, Mudcraft is a real-time strategy game developed in Macromedia Director and playable in any browser with a Shockwave plug-in.
The object of the game is simple: Mudpeople gather dirt and water to make more Mudpeople and build huts to protect themselves from the rain. If caught in the rain, Mudpeople melt and must be revived with more dirt. Gather resources to complete the objectives for each level.
For those who have played any of Blizzard's 'craft games, Mudcraft will feel like an old comfortable shoe. For those unfamiliar with resource gathering games, a tutorial is provided that walks you through the basics.
Designed to appeal to the broad, casual game audience found on the web, Mudcraft is a cute game with cute voices and familiar gameplay with a unique twist. Click.
A downloadable version of the game (for Mac or PC) is also available, as well as an expanded pay-to-play "full" version boasting 45 levels across 15 unique maps.

Just a thing, the right click action on the game scene generate ‡ right click menu under firefox 1.0. , so we can't play the game :s
Posted by: NiKo | November 27, 2004 7:53 AM
I am running Firefox 1.0 and right clicks work fine in the game as they should. I wonder if you have something installed on your computer that overrides the Shockwave player. What options are listed on the menu?
Posted by: jay | November 28, 2004 10:49 PM
this is very nicely made but i would be more nice if u can make a building that gets like 1 or 2 dirt or water a time and some fighting things like to kill those frogs...(for meat or just not that they anoy you) thats a idea

While I actually played this through the final "trial" level, I was eternally grateful that I was allowed to stop. These creatures are so sedate that you'll feel brain dead after helping them with their pathetic little world. Cheering a mud creature to outrun a sprinkling cloud is akin to watching paint dry.

Jason Rizos, I agree entirely.

ummm...this game isn't working for me. I have shockwave downloaded, but it says that the shockwave movie has errors that have caused playback problems. :/
Posted by: Katherine | May 23, 2005 2:51 PM
Oh what a shame.. I get the same shockwave problem. I was playing a couple of days ago, and it was great fun.
Posted by: Kelly | May 26, 2005 6:29 AM
WOW I like this game so much, I think I might be insane. thanks for the great game Jay.
Posted by: Mike | June 9, 2005 5:25 PM

It begins to load, and then a pop up appears saying "This Shockwave movie has errors that have caused playback problems. Please contact the author of this content regarding this problem. Shockwave is unable to continue." XP Firefox. Ideas anyone? I think I have the latest Shockwave. . .

Is there anyway to play this game, because the website does not exist anymore. It was so much fun. Are there any other websites that would have it?
Posted by: Tomcat | May 6, 2006 11:27 PM
The game has moved and I have updated the links accordingly. (Cheers, Thunder).

it takes for ever to load
Posted by: thunderdude | May 24, 2006 4:30 PM
At least it loads. =)
That is not something I can do anything about. The issue is with the server at MSU where the game is being hosted. Be patient. Once it loads you're good to go. ;)

Try the Get Shockwave button in the sidebar. That will always take you to the latest release of the Shockwave Player plug-in. =)
It loads for me, guys.

Yeah...Apparently its not the computer, but the game? I have no idea, I'm not much of a computer person.
Posted by: Fishy | November 4, 2006 9:44 AM
The full 1.0 version of the game came out recently (actually it is up to 1.2 now) which is a big update over the previous beta versions reported on here. It is available at http://www.mudcraft.com
Posted by: Mud Maniac | December 5, 2006 9:29 PM
