History behind the remake:
The before's, the exiting of blitz
It started in 2020, after adobe flash player announced they will shut down flash in January 2020. Many games that required flash were lost, including Dungeon Blitz.
Players were thinking on how to reboot the game. There were 3 possiblities:
1) Persuade BMG the creators, to preserve the game in some way, shape or form.
2) To create a new server to host the game without the need of adobe flash
3) To recreate the game.
None of the options were easy. The first option was the most of hope. People tried, but after many years, there was nothing.
People turned to the second option. But the knowledge was lost, it was too complicated. Furthermore, the server and game link were shut down. It was not possible to enter the html link of dungeon blitz - regardless if you tried on facebook, the offical website, or third parties. It was deleted.
Start of the first reboot era
The last option was to recreate the game from scratch. With the preserved files from anonymous players, several people in the community have tried. The first one was "Snine." He posted a video on April 19 2022 on his discord "Dungeon Blitz Reboot" to announce a reboot of the game. He worked on making his own sprites first, with the rogue sketch done. Snine wanted to have some changes but still make the game.
Then came "Random Rob" or Robert. Robert were by himself to start his own creation, and remake the game from the beginning, hoping to create the game exactly as it was before. Robert continued to work under the shadows while Snine was the main person to look forward as he started first.
Snine eventually paused his work...and after a few months, he returned to announced he will be making a new game, with inspirations from dungeon blitz. He calls it "Dungeon Blitz Calamity" (eventually adding Rampage at the end, most likely as a homage to Dungeon Rampage a similar game to Dungeon Blitz). So people saw 2 divisions: Snine's fan game and Robert's full remake.
Then came UAdrian, who, by himself, decided to recreate the game as well. The spanish community was really happy, they understood him more than the others in the dungeon blitz community. Now we have 3 remakers, 2 of which are starting to remake the entire game from scratch. UAdrian worked on the boat screen and Robert on Wolf End.
The era of beyblade, power, and reconsideration
Fast forward, 2023. it is found that Robert stopped a bit...it turns out he decided to restart to make sure the game is better. The code, perhaps, was not clear and clean for the production of the entirety of the game. He also found a few players to help him, and formed a small "team." The first team of the remake was born. It was called "Dungeon Blitz Remake" UAdrian decides to keep working on his own, without any knowledge of the other remake players. Soon, they find each other. Through mutual contact, Robert Rob and UAdrian formed an Alliance, and worked together to complete Wolf End.
News was going fast, and very well. Robert's discord, the biggest Dungeon Blitz Discord in history, formed 3000+ players. They believed they also bought the rights to the original game by BMG. The demo was going to come out February 2024! Sadly, things were to true to happen.
No news came in March. No news in April. No news in May, except a little comment by the remaker that he was busy. There was hope from the admin, saying things are going well! But it was a lie...Then, in the end, the administrator of the server announced it was not happening. There was a scandal, where the money used to buy the rights were found to be false. It was a scam. However, there was still a little bit of hope. But anger brew. Nobody like this news. It was shock and sad, anger and envy, jealousy and pain. Regret and loss... the Robert team also was disbanded. Tommy, a former developer of the team did not defend them but rather criticed. El Seon, another developer of the team and team contributer for art found his comments unprecedented and not respectful. Alias, a battle...It was gone for the first.
Beyblade use his full authority to stop others from speaking ill will of Robert, and the team. He authorized the cooldown comments and the 1 hour limiter. Only his team had authority to break these rules. It was the first thought of a dictator. One legend allowed this, for he believed it was only right to remain stable, must there no be rules to stabilized?
Eventually the ill war came to an end, and beyblade left with one word: "goodbye" His leadership role went down the second in command, the loyal moderator, Med. Med became the leader of the server.
UAdrian did not talked any further, and did not work on the project as it was already stated of the zero rights. He eventually posted his own little announcement on the incompletion, and the project was of unofficial realization, lost. People still hoped for his continuation, as he was the best, if not second to Robert's. Alias, that is not to be. Rules are rules.
The era of mako, power, and disorder
"Mako" of the Rampagne team wanted to help, see if the community of a similar game needed assistants. Alias, it was too hard on him, for he did not realize how much more difficult it would be. A legendary player hoped it would lead somewhere but it was for not. The admin of the server left, Robert did not go onlines and remain as a ghost to many. Med a moderator became admin but then too left. No work was done. It seems that it was over... It was gone for the second.
During the time that this happened, Mako and newly appointed leader, Med teamed up to try to gather a "team" in hopes to return. Mako was made co leader. They began the quest to create a new game similar to dungeon blitz, with no sprites and story. It was hopeful, people believed in the hope, in the new trust, But some people did not like this. They believed in the curse of the failure from before. Someone else decided to join in and began his own group, his own idea, a new idea.
Here comes "Apoysus", the new developer. He decides to go back to the second option that was abandoned - to create a private server, and reused all original sources. Apoysus and a player in the robert server, cheetooo teamed up to create the new server- Dungeon Blitz Reborn ! Dungeon Blitz Reborn (DBR) goal was to take action, and take away the fault of Robert's and the Admin's team. DBR had no chat, no communication with the fans, but DBR has a goal to work on the game fully, the server fully. It was really good. there was footage, video footage, much similar to Robert but some would say better. There was a first test and only test. The character selection was founded.
DBR was leading, and Mako-Med's revision was not yet seen. In the end, DBR prevailed in the acceptance of the community. Meanwhile, Snine is still creating his work- and has called it "Dungeon Blitz Calmaity Rampange". He is still to this day working on making the sprites and animations. No work on the program is yet to be revealed. As for DBR, ...butt then, there was a stop. Augustus was the month. There was nothing happening. No announcements. People waited. Nothing. People watched. Nothing. The post made by a ice wizard admin, stated that the date to the release was coming in October of 2024, alias, it was changed to "soon". And so it was unofficial, but the DBR work of the great Apoysus seem to close. It was gone for the third.
Then, out of nowhere the server was closed. The great mod cheetooo stated it was due to the adversely powers of Apoysus that it was shut down, and for a good reason. No work in that server was advertised, and so it was a false hope. And so the mainstream, the greatest one, the highest hiarchy of the community, was gone for good.
DBR remains closed in its communication, but it was the 'last hope' of dungeon blitz. Or was it?
Start of the second reboot era
3 months of silence. The came October's. The start of a new fall, of a new season. 2024 arises nears it end. During this stage the people have grieved upon the third loss. But a shine came though. Iepicfelas, the great mind of the original server, has seen it all. He saw Snine's start. He willed Snine's continuation. He saw Robert's trumpt. He saw Robert's descend. He saw Mako-Med's intiative. He saw it's demise. He saw Apoysus's start. he saw Apoysus's descend. And finally, he saw the truth. It was more than humilation or satisfaction or anger or love or hate or false. It was the truth. And the truth was, it is not over. Felas knew it. And someone else saw a little bit of that truth.
"Storm" discussed with a fellow waiter of the many players in the mainstream server, now lost forever. He talked about what to do, where to start, and how to continue. Finally he started on his own, with discussions with his fellow waiter. Candy and Storm were the first fore bringers to this new era. Storm talked with felas and their ideas matched. Slowly, Storm posted little bits of his work, he called the "gag demo", a small playable feat designed to show that work can be produced, manifested and shown for everyone. It was the first time that a demo was playable to the public players. But it was not enough. Together, with felas and candy, the new era has started.
A new server was made, called Dungeon Blitz Remake. It takes after the beyblade admin's original, the mainstream rob's, but it was also different. iepicfelas as owner, worked to make it better. The goal was not to create the entire game. It was to just produce a small, playable demo - meant to motivate the true developers or others who knew, with great experience, to program. Many people from the old server joined, thanks to the communication between felas and the others. October 15 was the start and the gag demo progressed. In 3 weeks 100 players have joined. And some tried it. It was not perfect but it was something. Something that was not found since the three losses. Of the few to first join, it was Candy and Vythyr, former waiters of the robert server. Vythyr would become important later as he would take the role as moderator and knowledgeable for the new era.
Early ownership, gag demo, proposal
There was a need for people to help iepicfelas as the community regrew. Storm looked at the active ones. Eventually he found the two that helped the most. KN and Dexel, the combination of being honest, cosmetical, and real. Together, the server was reorganized and locked in a better position. After this work, Dexel remained moderator. KN stepped down, stating it was not in his favor, and wished to remain as one of the many waiters. And so felas, the owner, dexel the moderator, and storm the developer, candy the first waiter. And the others. It has started, a new revolution, a new era.
The gag demo progressed. It too had a restart, with Storm finding out how to put camera - the proposal of the new vision occured to him: rather than create a "dream world" gag demo, why not produce a demo that follows the original closely? He decided to take what he called "preference" between Snine, Robert and Apoysus- and jam it together. Candy was the tester, and felas was the initiator. There was still problems but it was still the better deal. The gag demo was slowly becoming bigger, bigger than ever before.
Disagreements from others & new team
Fast forward, it is November 2024. The completion of Wolf End to Felbridge, the main layout. Dexel has become the Administrator and leads the community as a frontman. Iepicfelas pops out from time to time, placing his hopes in many of the discussions - similar to the time of Robert's. Tommy has joined. A former developer during the first reboot era with Robert, he wanted to see how things go. He later joined with his same role enacted a few years prior.
Then came ifelas and storms mini clash. epic wanted to try a different engine, but storm wished for the work to stay commited together. In the end it was ruled out a mini division - epic announced his own demo progress, and storm to continue his own.
But then change has blossomed. Tommy and one other gave Storm the permission to seek the demo made by Robert's team and the declassification of it to be revealed. To this day, few know of this and have played it, but it was to be kept secretive until the time was right. For the gag demo may come to an end, the work to continue the work of the random was yet co commance.
At the final glance, a new team was made. The avengers of dungeon blitz remake, the group consisted of Dexel, iepicfelas, Storm, and Tommy. Tommy convinced Storm to start working on the project of rob's rather than the gag demo. Storm wanted to but first wished to finish his gag demo, as it was his start and only was right to end it, if all else fails.
Neo and the third "new" reboot era
December 2024 comes to an end. The holidays came by but no work was commended. January 2025 was a huge hit, not only for the new year of 25 CE, but with the gag demo receiving huge updates. At last, work was coming further than ever before
But there was already a new plan set in motion. Officially declared, the 3rd reboot era has started. The goal was to taken Rob's final work and continue it to perfection. It was the first time two eras were together. The gag demo was close to its end, with a few more maps before its final farewell, although it will stay as a playful demo. Neo came from the first server to help with the development. Do not mistake him for beyblade, although they seem to appear as though they are distinct cousins, the dimeanor is different. Dexel gave his administration power to Neo, as he felt the busy life has got to him. He will, however, remain a faithful waiter of the game. So for the first time, 2 leaderships have stepped down, and Dexel joins KN in the wait. cheetooo has also joined alongside Apoysus. They joined a few weeks after the 100 players, and wished to see how things go, although do not wish to help due to how things happened. cheetooo told Storm about how Apoysus ran through a problem with his DBR work, and that is why it was over. And so it was offical, the gag demo is the last surviving work out. There was a team commanded by Neo, and the "BlitzForge" was formed as a nack nickname for the team. "False developers" joined, but were swiftly kicked out in commiment to following the rules. Moderators become more important, as more players of the waitlist joined. But the new era, the 3rd reboot should be the greatest last. Together, the new team has been properly formed:
Ifelasepic, Neo, Storm, Tommy, Cheetooo, and Vythyr (also known as rose), the newly founded team of the third reboot era. The title of the recreation of the game is Dungoen Blitz: Remake or Dungeon Blitz: Remake! and continues to progress as the tale continues.
New advancement, New legacy
Innovators of our time return, for 2 new heroes arrive to do what Apoysus attempted - to reverse engineer the game! So far the word of Jawhead & Biking have arrived at the same premise - the character selection! We are hopeful for more to come soon...
Neutral (Frosby), otherwise known as NeutralTheGreat, was the one that saved and posted the game files to preserve the legacy of dungeon blitz of hopes of it's return. He joined the server of the remake, and has immediately helped, trying to bring the ORIGINAL game back to life! Now, a new era has started!
Neo, Neutral and the forth reboot era: path of the great apes
At first, it was "Neutral". He, the great one, the preserver, created a local server hosted using python. Biking tried but was not too successful. Jawhead neither. Null, we have success with the preserver. The great one, satisfied, continued. Although a character was made, the game did not enter, no validation. Authorization was slowly fixed, and the character creation was met with applause!
Alas, the game world could not be entered. Neo himself, the now instilled Director of the Remake, the team Leader of BlitzForge, and the successor from Dexel the first admin, stepped up to help with his knowledge. Together, Neo and Neutral - the preserver, worked tirelessly, nonstop. The result was the successful server run, with character loading! Nay, the enter game was unsuccessful. Even worse, it was not possible to make another character without crashing the server.
The work progress more than its processor, the great Apoysus of the disordered era. Flashpoint and python, the mighty snake fight against the great ape! Hail, Dungeon Blitz Remake, hail.
Then came Mako.
He joined, a second time, the first was unwanted, cheetooo's anger was met with his leaving. Nay, Mako returned after communicating with a fan of both servers. Mako insisted in recreating the game and return to the third era's goal, and that this new 'shortcut' was unfinishable, and cannot be complete. Mako stated with his great knowledge in designing of the mighty of rampange, that even a new server is fatal for it could not be tampered with the original's. Nevertheless, Neo and Neutral continue. Neo was conflicted, and feared that Mako may be right. But time cannot be wasted, or it is for naught. It is too close to be stopped, to far to be broken, to heist to be nested. The original game can return! Or so we hope. Alas, Mako's words echoed in the minds of the mighty, and of course, directed to the team led of the administrative director, "Neo-san Devido".
