My roguelike, "Roguelegends Dark Realms"
« on: August 01, 2016, 05:42:25 pm »

Hello friends!
I am untrustedlife (Michael Hamm) and I am a university student who is majoring in comprehensive computer science and I am also a huge fan of dwarf fortress and of tarn adams . , I am developing my own dark fantasy themed roguelike called "Roguelegends Dark Realms", and have been for about a year ( Though in that time frame I have only had a few months of actual time to work on it, (far less then a year), since I am busy with my studies and such and failed to back up my codebase and recently lost 4 months worth of code    -_O_-  I assure you that wont happen again!)

Anyway,  I have decided to start this thread so that there are a couple places for people to hear about my game (I used to have a thread in the "other games" topic but this felt like a better place)  (I also have a thread on the roguetemple forum and my own blog/website, I have created multiple roguelikes, all of which you can read about on both the roguebasin wiki, and my website (And download On my website) .

Heres my most recent blog post!

https://untrustedlife.com/2016/08/01/what-have-i-been-up-to-3/

Go ahead and provide feedback here, and talk about it! Im hoping that when I finally do release it, there will be at least a few people interested

Ill try to stay active on this thread aswell. Posting blog posts etc.

Note, ill also answer any questions about the game,
The game pretty much procedurally generates everything enemies, dungeons overworld etc. Its going very well. You can read some of the ideas/features on the website though I only showed 1 section out of many of my GDD on that page.

Do you plan to release a build to a public or private audience at some point in the near future? If not, what have to happen for you to do that?

We have a rich tradition of percussion instruments as well, all of which are based around a musician smacking variously sized hollow rocks.
It was quite brutal actually. Who knew you could suffer major head trauma from undergarments?

I am hoping to get a release out by the time of the ARRP

(http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=The_annual_roguelike_release_party)

I have a few people i'm planning to ask to test, but I might just release it early for everyone to download.
