A downloadable game

Thy ship was swallowed by a moray eel of considerable proportions is a proposition for a dungeon-point-crawl for the Dungeonuary jam, designed with Mork Borg in mind but system agnostic.

As stated in the title : the ship carrying the players has been swallowed by a moray eel. Can they survive inside the belly of the beast and find a way to leave ?

I wanted to do a dungeon that would be theater of the mind compatible, but would have the spatial and ressource restrctions of a more conventional dungeon. Finally I wanted it to be be usable as an introduction to Mork Borg and its grotesque and dark setting and themes, for my own need. Finally I wanted to try something visual with my meagers skills in Gimp and do some collage of sorts.

I apologize for the MORE THAN LACKING accessibility, I did that under three days and barely finished it in time for the jam in the first place. I may try to find the time to do a readable version at some point maybe if I can gather the ressources to do so.

Perfect concept for Mörk Borg. Could you add the MB 3p license text to the document and the webpage?

Yes, I was pressed by the deadline of the gamejam, I plan to do that as soon as possible.

PS : It's done, and i took the opportunity to properly credit everything so it's all in order.

Thanks so much!
