I'm not sure what I'm going to make with this dungeon yet.
It started as a Random Map Maker for Android, for use with TTRPG, but I think I could turn it into something. Some kind of neo-Roguelike?
Once I've got proof-of-concept for a Map, I'll see what next.
Suggestions welcome.
Another evening of "work" and I finished implementing the chainlighting spell for our #roguelike on #c64 . The problem was there were too many enemies and so I died (also I had to spend two turns standing still to recover stamina).
The animation is a bit fast, but you should still be able to appreciate @politopo 's great #pixelart
I did the #daily#CavesOfQud build. Died horribly (this is the way) quite proud of what I achieved though. It was a fun break from reality. exploring a procedurally generated high tech-low-life fantasy swamp. Love me a good chrome revolver and salve injector.
Nuclear Throne is an incredible game, just as I'd heard. I'm glad I jumped on it finally. Figuring out the different random power-up mutations, the runs are fun as hell, twin stick shooting, permadeath, it's a blast. It's tough! But I'm gonna keep trying to get to that throne 🔫
Hey rat punchers, Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.4.0 is going to be releasing to everyone around the middle of this coming week!
The v2.4.0 beta now contains 11 trinkets total, with 3 recent additions: the mimic tooth, wondrous resin, and eye of newt. I think 11 is a good place to start, but there's lots of room to add more in the future as well!
The dates for the Roguelike Celebration for 2024 have just been announced - it will be October 19th and 20th this year.
@roguelike_con is now accepting submissions for proposals until June 30th to present at the event - see guidelines and submission form here (and you can email them from there too with any questions): https://www.roguelike.club/cfp.html
I've managed to convert my Dungeon Generator over to Godot.
Took me literally all day to get the Corridors code working, and it still needs a lot of tweaking.
And this is just a Map. So much more to turn it into anything useful.
Rooms generated as random, non-overlapping, rectangles, then centres joined in turn.
Janky programmer art, but enemies next move is visualized. Experienced players basically always knew this, but I think it might be a good (new, especially) player experience to just be explicit about it. I have Into the Breach in mind -- where enemy behavior is telegraphed for you.
Happy and flabbergasted to report that Piss and Vinegar, the traditional #roguelike game I made for the 7 Day Roguelike challenge, came in 7th out of 160. I've spent the last month mainly looking at everything I should've done differently, but apparently I got some things right after all.
S02E09 is OUT for my #godotengine Intermediate Roguelike Deckbuilder Course!
We build a Flexible Modifier System to recreate Vulnerable and Strength from Slay the Spire!
Hey folks, the beta for Shattered Pixel Dungeon v2.4.0 should be ready to start this coming week!
The beta will have everything I've shown off so far, including a new item category, changes to alchemy, and changes to the Duelist. There are also some levelgen additions! Entrance and exit rooms in particular are going to become more visually varied.
