About Overseer

A scientist is testing adventurers in an artificial dungeon, with hidden wires and glitching holographic rooms hinting at the setup. Explore generated layouts and develop class abilities around the power-ups you find.

Basic multiplayer connections are available. The planned Overseer system would add a player-controlled source of monsters, traps and layout changes to the dungeon, alongside further connection and interface improvements.
