Thank you for creating this awesome looking game, really brings me back to my childhood playing EOB and LoL. The nostalgia is strong with this one.
One question: Will monsters respawn or is it possible to "clear" levels so you can feel relatively safe going back?
I've never liked respawning monsters in these kind of games, except possible for certain rare scripted events which I can tolerate.

If I recall in Dungeon Master, there were always wandering monsters. There kind of had to be as a source of food. I recall many back-tracking forays into the upper levels just to stock up on food... I see no reason why this sort of detail wouldn't be in LOG. It's a real-time game. The dungeon is alive, I assume, just as it was in Dungeon Master. In DM, the dungeon had its mysteries. It was always dangerous. Safe places were rare, and when you did find them they often became a refuge when you needed to sleep and recover.

Just joking. But seriously there's no level cap. The skills max out at 50 though.

No respawning monsters mean you can control the leveling progress much easier, I guess. You'll always know roughly which level the characters will be and can tune the game difficulty accordingly.
