#traditionalroguelike — Public Fediverse posts

In Rogue-FP on Steam, EVERYTHING is made of letters. When you kill a monster and come back later, there will often be flies (capital 'F' letters) flying around the remains 😂

Squeezing the #FontForge program, #nightshift #roguelikedev #ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike the results are GORGEOUS. Ascii looks stupendous on the Variant. Did some more replacement for the characters that I like from other fonts, upgraded the rendering to give the final smooth looking and boy, does it look stunning or what!? I will upload screenshots later on. This is awesome. Along with the 256 ascii Technicolor upgrade!! heck yeah!!

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #turnbasedrpg new update released! I.20 patch is up and ready for the taking!!
Link on bio. Thx you loads to everyone for the support and the positive vibes! Thank you to @jake4480 for the trouble.
Excited to see what you my fellow roguelikers think of this new update. Packed up with bunches of fine-tuning and polishing on Combat, Magic and Classes' preferences for a more customized/personalized gameplay!

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev Here it is! Non-lit areas of the map are a la #Brogue ,lit areas outside the yellow light source are of different colour too.Magma veins have 2 tones now depending on how close the player is to them. AND I figured out how to colour objects+monsters. This is gonna have a HUGE impact on the visuals.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #variant #roguelikedev Wow!
As I was surfing through my usual tour of pages about roguelikes and found my humble variant got featured at #roguebasin
Can't wait to release next update! You guys are gonna love it.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #variant #turnbasedrpg #roguelikedev
Oh man, something nice' s a-cooking. I think I'm getting more and more familiar with the Ancestral Zangband Code, it's like deciphering neolitic cave art, gives me the jeebies but I like it. Btw, installing #VSCode was a bright idea, was NOT expecting it to be so good when used along with #Vim .
Next update is so dear to me that might as well advance a whole number.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #variant #turnbasedrpg #roguelikedev Latest patch, with some last minute fixes and corrections, has been tested and released. Up on itchio for you folks to download it. Somebody on win11 was reporting of a weird save/autosave bug. 0.8b is available. Get your copy!

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant https://jose-machete.itch.io/zmangband08me
New version is up and hot for the taking! Go get it and read the 0.8a_readme.txt for all new good nice added stuff in it :)) Sure you guys will dig this one!

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant #screenshotsunday
Blade of Chaos plus an example of the said bracelets, the rune of spring one in this case. My Rogue Rakshasa looks promising... We will see how far she can make it.
Also the re-vamped combat system is working good. Take a look at combat_charts.txt to know more about it.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant
...collectibles to find AND wear, giving even more possibilities and customizations to the Adventurers. On the bad side, other major features will have to wait to be released. I know, slow and steady... But dang, I wanted it all. ___sigh. Anyway, it's a nice step forward.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant Tomorrow it's new version release day. 0.8a will be entering the stage. Mixed feelings. Got an entire new type of jewelry you can combine with rings: bracelets with Runes. 21 in total, plus the fine-tuned Shrunken Heads amulets. Lots of...

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant we made it to the #RogueBasin
https://roguebasin.com/index.php/Main_Page @roguetemple thank you, Slashie!
Oh and also, presented it at the https://angband.live forums/variants !

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #roguelikedev #variant Road to 0.8 is already being paved. So far the tests for speaking/sounds effects on monsters are successful. Historically, 'bands only had lines for Uniques. I'm expanding that feature and the test runs are being a BLAST.
Also, ranged attacks from monsters are taking shape too.
Had somebody told me one year ago, that today I would be here and I would had called them crazy. But here I am. Bonkers.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelike #turnbasedrpg #Variant hello there! 0.7G is up for grabbing! Getting more and more polished gameplay, more variety of Inventory, for more choices to your runs! And more enemies to haunt your sleepless nights!
Every update takes the Variant closer to my goal, which is to provide an honest fun time to all who start a game :)
Working on more Vaults/Special Rooms to add, which is a pending thing I owe my Variant. And obv, I have couple more ideas always in store :)

@jake4480 today I found out on reddit that there is a #newrelease of the mythical rewrite of #Larn #traditionalroguelike ! 0.7.7 of #NLarn is out on the dev's git:
https://nlarn.github.io/
This put a BIG SMILE in my face.

#traditionalroguelike #ZdashAngband
Yesterday's release of the 0.6 version went good :) downloads are above 50 and increasing slowly but steadily, which feels so nice. Got somebody commenting on my itch.io page and on the #RogueTemple thread too.
Humble are the goals and the expectations and gotta say so far so good. Thank you @jake4480 for the testing and support and @juliancday plus @slashie for the guidance and advices, much appreciated.

#traditionalroguelike #ZdashAngband #screenshot #gaming #nightshift first image shows the blood splat plus the classic corpse dropping, creating a floor that really shows the battle I had against that pack of crazed snow goblins. Second snap shows a duel, my kenku encounters two other kenku ronins... Didnt go well for them. #testing release day should be tomorrow. Found a bug but it was not related to last changes, so, kinda ready for release. Niiiice!

Testing testing and more testing. Gotta test before release. 3 new races to make the Race Selection a bit more enticing. To your regular races now there will be Kenkus, Gnolls and Skavens. Right now, running a game with a female skaven rogue. Never had this much fun with a rogue class before! I got an entire party of goblins out because my stealth is on another level. They never even heard me. Version 0.6 is looking good, my fellas.
#traditionalroguelike #ZdashAngband #MacheteEdition

Getting ready to release a new version of my #zangband #variant #ZdashAngband #MacheteEdition ---> 0.6 !! Featuring more monsters! More objects for added flavourful runs! More Artifacts and Uniques! And, a new race, the Kenku!
...this opens a debate, should I get out the races' selection, others that nobody plays with? Imps? Spectres?
What two races could I switch for those mentioned above? @jake4480 @juliancday any favourite, since Kenkus don't appeal you?

The friggin' Dagger from R'lyeh, no less. Gotten from Boskovlado, King of Goblins. Who, after ambushing me in a pillars room, ended up dissolved/hacked from my Axe's mighty power. Hell of a Variant, this one.
