Canvas Crawler

🎮 Canvas Crawler

A dungeon-crawling study of the grind.

Canvas Crawler is a retro-inspired, hypertext dungeon game where you don't just fight — you reflect. Guided by the Warden, you’ll face five academic-themed trials that test your Resolve, Wisdom, Compassion, Adaptability, and Courage. Each path offers a short but meaningful gauntlet of choices and scenarios — and at the end of every dungeon lies an Article of Knowledge: a hidden truth about grinding psychology in game design.

The final challenge? A boss fight powered by game theory itself.
Can you remember the lessons? Or will the grind grind you?
