Breath of the Wild was a complete reinvention of the Zelda formula, and many past staples were either discarded or reworked. One example of this is the dungeons. Whereas past Zelda titles featured long, unique dungeons with and a particular item to obtain, Breath of the Wild instead mostly has a ton of smaller Shrines scattered throughout the world and a few Divine Beasts that are thematically similar.

Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and Breath of the Wild directed Hidemaro Fujibayashi commented on Nintendo’s approach to Shrines and dungeons in the debut episode of the Nintendo Power podcast. We’re first able to hear from Fujibayashi, who explains that big dungeons would mean that players would spent too much time there.

When Heart & Slash was initially funded on Kickstarter, one of the stretch goals was an Endless Dungeon mode. That feature has been added to the Steam version, and BadLand Games has confirmed that it’s coming soon on Switch in a future update.

Endless Dungeon offers endless, randomly generated stages where enemies level up as you progress. You control Slash here. Along the way, enemies will change their weapons and character type while you’ll also encounter new weapons and items to replenish your energy. International combo and score rankings are supported in Endless Dungeon mode.
