#roguelikes — Public Fediverse posts

When I need a quick game to jump into for a bit, I often go for Heroes of Loot (either the first OR 2). I've been playing them a while now. Maybe I'll beat one of them someday. 😂 They're such a blast. Super satisfying.

Slartboz has been posted to the Dwarf Fortress forum on Reddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/dwarffortress/comments/16op689/slartboz_my_take_on_dwarf_fortress_but_with_a/

fans/frens/geeks/freaks, would appreciate any upvotes you can give it there on Reddit. I am on a razor's edge between deciding to abandon this game or continue it. so any new tangible evidence I get that people *like* Slartboz would help *immensely* now

thank you!

Dead By Zombie's public README has been revised to mention Slartboz

DBZ was my 1st commercial Rogue-like. began writing it in 2007-ish. went live to players in 2008. released around same time as the original Dwarf Fortress! (Them: dorfs. Me: zeds.)

Slartboz is my de facto sequel & successor to DBZ. so it made sense to mention it back in the old public repo for DBZ

it is here:

thanks!

I'm thinking of doing posts to Reddit, somewhere, to promote Slartboz, and help get more audience and supporters

anyone have recommendation of what subreddits might be good for that?

Have I done #TenGamesToKnowMe here yet? I forget.

If I have, this is an updated version for 2023. Here's mine, in no particular order.

* Centipede (my favorite game ever. Arcade version! Lemme shoot those bugs!)

* Black Widow (also the arcade version - I'm totally hooked on this one too, and it was a more recent discovery. When I go to an arcade with retro machines, I basically just want to play this and Centipede the whole time.)

* Wolfenstein 3D (a classic, still playable. Who doesn't love killing digital Nazis?)

* Diablo (1, 2, 3, 4, Immortal, any. Just choose one and I love it. What a series. Hooked.)

* Gun Nac (my favorite technical [ship based] shootemup-- if you don't count Centipede as a shootemup. A rare one for the NES. If you like shooters and get the chance to play this, even emulated, don't miss it.)

* Wizodd (I love roguelikes and indie games, and this one is both. Just a cool, simple game that's definitely beatable and replayable. But you won't beat it every time!)

* Mario Kart (another that it doesn't really matter the series, although the Wii one might be my favorite, closely followed by the SNES one. I definitely play the Wii one the most.)

* Doom (1 or 2, preferably. I feel like those are most classic, and those are the ones that got me hooked. More recent ones I'm not as much about, but those first two.. wow.)

* Beam Rider (I'm throwing this in because it's an amazing game for the Atari 2600. Maybe one of the best ones. I feel like it gets overlooked with all the other great ones on the system, River Raid, etc.)

* Beekyr Reloaded (okay, this is a weird one. I was tempted to put Neko Navy or Q-Yo Blaster or another modern indie shootemup that I love in here somewhere instead, but Beekyr is too rad. I love bees and I love shooters, so this one was definitely for me, despite its creator not really being happy with its port.)

Those are my ten, and I'm sticking with them. (At least for today 😂). There are SO MANY other games I love, but these ten are huge.

Game Description from the site: "If you like #roguelikes or Mega Man, #20XX is for you!" Well, I do like #MegaMan so, I'm playing this.
