Title: One Monster Game
Post by: jasonpickering on December 22, 2010, 05:49:43 PM

so I have an odd question. has this ever been done before? a game with only one monster. My example is  like if you were to convert the movie Alien ( notice I said Alien and not Aliens) into a game. so you are running around a spaceship. collecting weapons and gear in order to defeat a monster.

In KleinRL, you can choose the number of powerful monsters (not necessarily 1), there are many helper monsters, and your goal is to defeat a coward rather than to defeat a power monster, but still, I think it is a bit similar.

Yes, in Feud your enemy was another wizard trying to beat you.
