Someone made a ToTS clone combined with procedural level generation. Think it's still in alpha.

Not as good as DROD RPG, also some strategies in ToTS can't be used here, but still it's funny.

also an interview: http://indiegames.com/2014/04/browser_pick_chat_clewcats_dun.html

(make me feel like i should do a ToTS clone too, shouldn't be too hard for me)

Interesting. It feels like it's a mix of too easy levels and impossible ones - as there's no save feature that lets you return to an earlier point you can't make a good strategy (wouldn't make too much sense as it's procedurally generated). Overall, it's substantially easier than either ToTS or DROD RPG.

That being said, it's a fun diversion and if the later versions feature endless exploration it might be pretty fun. Though the vampire tooth thing seems pretty overpowered if you leave monsters on the lower levels for later. 5% of damage dealt can really add up, especially if you have 20 or 30 monsters on earlier levels just waiting for you to have a couple hundred attack.
