[OC] Instant Dungeon Generator, looking for feedback!

Hi everyone. I work on the Dungeon Scrawl team, and we just released a Random Dungeon generator in beta. I’d love to get your feedback on what kinds of changes or features would help your game nights the most!

This tool is to help when the party zigs when you expected them to zag, and you want a quick, easy map they can explore. We’re trying to make it easier to help GMs focus on the rest of the game instead of worrying about mapmaking. 

A few things worth knowing:

  • The Dungeon Generator is 100% free and browser-based. No account or installs needed to use
  • It uses procedural generation to build maps based on your input criteria, similar to how Donjon and Watabou have done for years… but inside Dungeon Scrawl.  Every room, wall, and door, plus the look and feel of the final map, is fully editable
  • Export to use on any VTT, or print or broadcast to a TV/monitor if you play in person

Let me know what you think, especially if there are any settings you'd love to see that aren't there yet.

Free Random Generator: D&D Dungeon Map Creator

Hey everyone. We just released a Random Dungeon Generator in Dungeon Scrawl that creates fully editable dungeon maps in seconds. It’s browser-based, so no installations, no account needed to use it, and you can generate as many as you want, no limits.

In a rush or caught off-guard without a map? No problem. Love making your own, but have trouble getting started? Use it as inspiration to build from. This is designed to make GMing easier without replacing what makes it fun in the first place.  

  • 🙅 It's not AI: This tool uses procedural generation, which other popular generators have used for years. There’s no training data, no model, no scraping… just good, old-fashioned math. 
  • 🛠️ Adjustable settings: Tweak the size, rooms, halls, layout, and more. Re-generate until you like what you see, depending on your needs. 
  • 🧑‍🎨 Everything is editable: Can you use the old-school style map as-is? Sure. Do you have to? No way! Treat the map as a launchpad to add to, trim, style, and get creative with. 
  • 💻 Use it anywhere: Playing on Roll20? Cool. Sync it if it’s small, or export it to upload directly. Meeting in person? Broadcast to a TV with Dungeon Scrawl’s Send to tabletop tool, or print it for the kitchen table.

 

The tool is in beta, so your feedback is greatly appreciated so we can make it work well for you. Tell us what you like, what you’d prefer to see, and show us how you’re using it.
