DNG
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
DNG is a top-down online co-op bullet-hell action RPG built around short, intense dungeon runs.
Move with WASD, aim with the mouse, and fight through open biomes, procedural dungeons, wave arenas, and phased bosses. DNG is cooperative PvE: players share the danger, and there is no PvP.
There are no fixed classes. Your weapon, helmet, body armor, gloves, boots, jewelry, skills, and toolbelt determine what your character can do. Change the gear and you change the build.
Gear gives you the buttons
- Gear is your class. Weapons attack, helmets defend, boots move, armor shapes passive loops, and gloves trigger powerful effects.
- Build during the run. Spend run-only gold to tier equipment and choose upgrades without changing your loadout mid-dungeon.
- Risk the loot. Collect dungeon rewards, survive the boss, and return to the Nexus instead of losing the run.
- Keep growing. Persistent levels, skill points, permanent stats, collections, and your stash carry progression forward.
Fight your way back to the Nexus
- Read and dodge the room. Enemy projectiles, warning fields, status effects, and phased bosses turn positioning into your real defense.
- Find a build, not a class. Combine equipment with persistent skill lines including Stealth, Frost, Fire, Shock, Poison, Necromancy, Warding, Marksmanship, Meditation, and more.
- Explore distinct encounters. Battle through forest and desert biomes, sewer dungeons, champion wave arenas, hidden discoveries, and boss rooms.
- Play together, never against each other. DNG is real-time multiplayer PvE with an authoritative server and responsive local movement.
One character, many builds. A bow can reward patient long-range shots; a staff can spread elemental pressure; a ritual weapon can turn damage-over-time into an engine. Your equipment supplies the actions, and your persistent skills decide how they interact.
