The past couple of days Iโve dropped links from the course to folks stumped on some aspect of dungeon design- it helped them break through!
So give it a listen or jump around in the course itself-each piece is semi-self contained
This is absolutely amazing! Itโs really nice to see this series turned into an entire podcast!
