Dungeon Maker has been a passion project of mine for the last year and a half. It's a map maker and multiplayer campaign manager for DnD 5e.

The program features a robust encounter map maker and map exporter for you to use your maps in any program you like. It also features a campaign maker where you can tie together encounter maps into a world map.

You can create enemies and NPCs and give them actions and spells to use in game. As the Dungeon Master you can take full control of these characters and enemies during your campaigns.

It features full multiplayer, with a character creator for your players, dynamic lighting, an encounter tracker, animated actions, automatic dice rolls, and more.

I would love for you to check out Dungeon Maker on Steam.

The map making and map exporting might be worth it for me, I'll defo wishlist it! One of the things I am noticing is that a lot of the features you got overlap with the software I already use (FoundryVTT) and between already having DungeonDraft and Dungeon Alchemist. It's a hard space to break in to and I do honestly wish you the best.

The Workshop support is interesting, though I am guessing from your description that so far, it won't come even close to rival the module support that something like Foundry has.

You price point is very good though. Could be a solid entry point for a lot of GMs that want to get off Roll20. Oh yeah one thing that is not super clear from the Steam page as well is, does only the GM need to purchase the software or do players need their own copy too?

It's definitely a crowded space, I'm hoping the combination of features lets me carve out a niche.

And everyone does need to purchase it, that's why I've kept the price point low.
