Rodney's Tunnel

Rodney's Tunnel is a total conversion mod of Rovgend's Labyrinth, a game developed by Cflip. It was created by Kjolt for a month-long modding competition from the start of May 2024 to June 1st, 2024. It was made publicly available on the Cflip Forum, but has since been inaccessible after its shutdown. There is an official no commentary video gameplay series on Kjolt's Youtube channel.

Rather than being based on medieval fantasy, the game is based on the creations of Kjolt and various inside jokes. It is set after the events of Kevin War.

Gameplay

Rodney's Tunnel plays identically to base game of Rovgend's Labyrinth; it is a hybrid of the FPS and Roguelike genres. You take control of a player whom is able to move in all horizontal directions, look left and right, and use items on their belt. The objective is to collect items and weapons from containers to conquer a procedurally-generated maze filled with monsters, using ladders to descend further until the end.

In Rodney's Tunnel, the gameplay differs in the new content overwriting that of the base game. It consists of 20 floors with 4 bosses, excluding the ending.

Story

It takes place underneath an alternate version of Ricky Hills, the primary setting of the Ricky War series. In the ending of Kevin War in which Kevin is killed by the Hitman, he is banished to a sort of psychic purgatory formed from the memories of the Hill People and himself. It is held together by Rodney, the spirit of Red Cran manifested as an raging, burning skull. Kevin must conquer the labyrinthine tunnel's many trials in order to defeat Rodney and return to Earth.

Floors and Areas

The tunnel is divided into 6 main areas - Ricky Hills, Old Sewers, Overgrowth Depths, Subterranean Bathroom, Signature Walls, and the Red Realm. Each boss has an entire floor dedicated to their fight which closes off their respective portion of the tunnel.
