Porrog Tom Barnes-Lawrence www 0.06 A roguelike game developed from scratch It's a roguelike game, that borrows from many other such games in little ways (it doesn't copy much from any individual game), whilst having content and game mechanics of its own. It isn't a "variant" of another game, but is being written from scratch.<br> Much of the UI and such things are done in a traditional roguelike style, whereas many other aspects are intended to be more original.<br> The game isn't remotely complete (in particular it still lacks an objective), but it's otherwise more or less playable, and you might enjoy it anyway. rpg free img on on on off off off 2003-07-25 3 2003-07-27 04:44:05 4512 <UL> <LI>curses <LI>C compiler and all that </ul> 2004-08-10 08:19:05 off

POWDER Jeff Lait www 115 Roguelike <p>To understand POWDER, you should first understand Roguelikes. "Roguelike" is a term applied to a wide variety of games which share a common inspiration from the game Rogue. A non-exhaustive list of such games would be: ADOM, Nethack, Diablo (I & II), Moria, and Angband. My apologies to the many excellent roguelikes I didn't list. What characterizes these games? The exact specifications are a matter of debate - indeed, I may receive hate mail for including Diablo - but I shall try to write a few: <ul> <li>Tactical play. The unit of action is based on the individual adventurer. The game is not twitch oriented (like Quake, rewarding reflexes & well trained actions) nor is it strategy oriented (like Civilizations or Warcraft, requiring working on the large picture)</li> <li>Based in Hack and Slash. A roguelike isn't primarily about plot development or telling a story. It is about killing things and acquiring treasure.</li> <li>Random games. A roguelike is a dungeon crawler where no two games are the same. The maps are different, the items are different, there are no guaranteed win paths.</li> <li>Permadeath. You die, that is it. No restoring a savegame. Good roguelikes delete your save game after loading them. This is compensated by the replayability of the game.</li> <li>Complex interactions of properties. While the commands for a roguelike are simple, the potential interactions are not. My favourite example is equipping a silver ring as a weapon in order to damage a creature vulnerable to silver, but not one's other weapons.</li> <li>Steam rolling monsters. If a critter is in your way, and weak, you shouldn't even notice it is there.</li> </ul> rpg unknown img on on off off off off 2007-12-24 4 2007-12-27 09:47:11 32577 www Linux/Mac/Windows SDL or Nintendo GBA/DS 2011-09-04 15:11:01 off
