If you ever make a version with tiles, I can help with sprites.

A quick example of the stuff I am spriting now:

~Nevermind.

[Tarran]

When entering a ruin I got a message saying "You sense a sinister presence nearby". How ominous.

EDIT: OH GOD MY EVIL TWIN AHHHHH!

Edit2: I killed my evil twin! And I got... 10xp and bloody ashes. WHAT. That's a freaking rip off.

[forsaken1111]

Its supposed to be a defect, not a bonus. In fact I bet he comes back again and again.

[Frumple]

Evil twin is a defect, after all. It's probably not supposed to give you equitable XP and copies of all your loot.

Could definitely see some interesting stuff done with it, though. Maybe a small chance to gain a mutation point or few points of SP or something. Perhaps the ashes could be used for some questline, or as a unique barter tool (ala DQ's small medals ). Could totally see a whacked out tinker collecting them for some radiation-addled reason.

And yes, the evil twin will appear repeatedly.

[forsaken1111]

I want to make out with my evil twin.

Oh, can you use dominate or beguile on it? EVIL TWIN ARMY

[Frumple]

You could a few versions back. Dunno 'bout now, I've never personally done it, just read of other people doing it (SA thread). I think that sort of thing has been messed around with for bug squelching reasons. All the evil twin is, is a hostile fugue clone, so far as I know.

Things (probably) get fun when you've got fugue and evil twin. Heh.

[Tarran]

Yeah, I know it's a defect, but you'd expect your guy to learn something from fighting himself. I mean, having to fight yourself is already quite a defect in itself if you think about it; the odds are exactly equal, you'd expect like 10% of your current XP as a reward or something for defeating yourself. Not 10xp from your guy going "Herp derp derp evil twin dead I win herp derp I learned how to pick my nose derp".

Ah whatever, not a big deal. Well, at least until my twin nearly kills me, then it'll be a big deal.

[Frumple]

Minor suggestion for unormal, if it hasn't come up somewhere else: It would be kinda' awesome to be able to trade at a loss. As is, you have to pony up drams of water to anyone who doesn't have their own store of it (Argyve, ferex.), instead of simply giving them a little bit extra junk. I'd generally rather toss in an extra dagger or something instead of 5-6 drams of water.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Has anyone got any tips for getting food? I keep starving to death. I have butchery but it hasn't kicked in once yet. I've already bought out the Joppa shopkeep's stock of food (as well as all of his gold and copper nuggets)

[quintin522]

This game really needs a page on Roguebasin to help it spread.

[Soulwynd]

O.o ... You're just not killing the right creatures. I sometimes find myself carrying 150 pounds of boar meat even before I get hungry.

[Strange guy]

Aww... This game doesn't work on the PC I do most of my rouge-like playing on. Still at least it works on this one. One thing I found strange was that battle axes were less effective then hand axes- hand axe makes me think of a small tool and a battle axe a large weapon.

And yes, I agree trading at a loss needs to be in.

Unormal, after loading a game I get this every action:

E-mail me the saved game. Sure it's not from an older version?
