Attention, modding community! Trendy Entertainment has released a full set of mod tools for their popular action RPG/tower defense game Dungeon Defenders.
The tools are available now on Steam and feature an amazing array of assets that will not only let you modify every aspect of Dungeon Defenders, but will even allow you to create entirely new games based on the Unreal Engine. A snippet from the tools' Steam page says that the development kit includes:
- Create and edit maps for Dungeon Defenders: These maps can include new game code, assets, and more which will be automatically downloaded online to new players so they never have to leave the game. Create awesome new mods and become famous as their popularity spreads through the online Dungeon Defenders community!
- Access to all of Dungeon Defenders’ source assets: Build upon our vast library of Dungeon Defenders assets for your mod or total conversion using your art package of choice, so you can quickly create new content, animations, or characters without having to start from scratch.
- Access to Dungeon Defenders’ full source code: Change ANYTHING and create your own completely new game as a Total Conversion! You could make a brand new FPS, a team-versus-team online MOBA, or a third person Role Playing Game. The possibilities are endless and the existing Dungeon Defenders code base and content will give you a head start. This is one of the definitive Unreal Engine 3 reference codebases and one of the largest complete codebase to ever be publicly released.
In the above video, Trendy has given us a look at what players are able to craft with this powerful suite of tools. Additionally, the team has released their 16-player Capture the Flag game mode for Dungeon Defenders but, as of now, the mode is in Alpha test phase. Trendy is looking for feedback from players and modders alike to help them hammer out the details and fine tune Capture the Flag.
