I hope traditional roguelike fans who follow me here have been following the progress I've boosted here and there about @josemachete79's ZAngband variant 'ZMAngband' he's been working on based on the original red box D&D rules.

Go to https://jose-machete.itch.io/zmangband07me and grab a copy to try out yourself - it's a blast!

#traditionalroguelike #ZdashAngband variant of mighty #ZAngband (#Angband )

Almost hitting the hundred downloads milestone!! Thats one hell of a neat thing! T_T Grab it now!

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?

@slashie Señor Slashie himself, no less! You don't know how much HONOUR you do to this humble rogueliker.
Thank you buckets for the #inspiration and your invaluable words of support. This deaf spanish guy here deeply admires you.

@jake4480 my dear friend, can you believe my little ugly duck of #ZdashAngband #traditionalroguelike has already been downloaded _almost_ 40 times?? Wowsers!! Looks like #roguelike genre is not that dead after all! I know it's not a hundred yet but makes me so happy!

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. Getting better and better. #traditionalroguelike #zangband #angband #screenshotsunday -and a big hello to my mastomates @jake4480 @juliancday @roguetemple @BenCollver and others that my fried braincell cannot bring up rn :(( #goodnightfediverse

It's #NewRelease day! #traditionalroguelike #ZdashAngband #MacheteEdition is out, born from the deep forges of #Angband 's fork #ZAngband
Thanks a-plenty to @slashie
@juliancday
@jake4480 and others that want to stay anonimous. Go grab it, read the machete_readme.txt, and cry from despair, for this Fork is unforgiving AF.

I know I follow a lot of indie game makers here, but I have little idea of what engines any of of you use. Anybody here know about C++ compiling? @josemachete79 is working on building his own version of #Angband from a cloned repo, and is running into issues compiling.

Any help anyone can offer would be much appreciated- I've played a test build or two of the game and it's working great except for these final compiling issues. Hit him up!

(The image below is a screenshot of the starting character I randomly generated to use when testing one of the builds.)

#traditionalroguelikes #project Z-Angband Update journal entry; I now realize that I was confused af here. Now I know what I'm doing. I'm updating a dead repo and bringing it back to life thanks to #OpenSource #AngbandLicense . Emailed the guy whom I got the clone from, to no avail. I thank him as the Enabler of this project.
What I have in hands is not a "my own variant" but an Update to a child spawned by classic #ZAngband . Now I have a clear goal in mind.

My head is throbbing after so many hours going through code and file after file to understand how to #zangband works. Writing down bunches of ideas and then moving them into the "reforging" (for lack of a better fitting word) of my clone. Several revamped visuals, couple bugs smashed, some QoL implementations done and a fair bunch of added stuff, are already fitted and being tested.
