I have said the last few posts of mine that I haven't given up on this project, but rather than I've been super slow.  That is 100% truth.  Here's a 5ish minute video of the start of the game along with walking to what will essentially be a building with a boss in it.  I only have the lobby and the first floor of this built from a map standpoint.  I still obviously need to make the enemies for the area, add 'do this then you can do that' flows, finish the 2nd and then 3rd floor (boss battle).  I also doubt I'll keep the building this close to the start of the game, but who knows.  Maybe I'll leave it, but have some back tracking at some point to get there.  A lot of visual things I need to work on, but before I fix things, I'm trying to get to the point where I actually have a solid "dungeon" visually.  I definitely am seeing why making games takes developers years.  I'm closing in on a year of playing around with this (probably 6-8 months of actually having an idea on scope) and I'm still not very far.  Granted, this is just a hobby and I probably work on it less than an hour a week at this point, but progress is progress!
