I created a roguelike game! what do you think?
« on: February 28, 2011, 06:34:12 am »
Hi all!

After some months of work I have finished a video game! It has some inspiration in DF and in the roguelikes in general.

I would appreciate if you give it a try!

Fun little game, only played five level one got killed on level three but will be playing it again.

Questions:
Will you be incorperating a rest button? It's hard to get back health other wise.
I'm probably being stupid but is it possible to read scrolls to see what they do?

Alright, I don't think you're a bot or anything, but first post to advertise a game is a bit of a faux pas. Also, this belongs in Creative Projects or Other Games.

I played it, and I guess it's decent start for a roguelike. I fail to see how it's much inspired by DF. My main concerns, having played one round, were that my health wouldn't replenish, and "Paralyce" is not a word.

@kinseti
Im sorry if i put this post in the wrong forum, but i read in the description of this "Discussions, commentary, reviews, news" and i thought that was ok, but if it isnt a mod can move it :)


@Metal Militia
There is the buttong '5' to wait one turn, but you cant heal hp this way, only with heal scrolls (or heal all)
To see the description of the scrolls, hit the letter attached in the 'i' inventory screen

Thanks for comment!!

That why it is called mysterious... it means that is like "unidentified" :)

but the rest of them have a description!

But all the scrolls I've found are 'Mysterious scrolls'? Any way to identify them?

Somebody has never played a dungeon crawler rogue-like before.

My favorite part about this is that now that the topic has been moved, it looks like there's a thread in General Discussion started by ToadyOne entitled "I created a roguelike game! what do you think?"

Anywho, I'll try it out and tell you what I think.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

Well the healing spells to damage ratio makes this so what of a hard game, but in roguelikes that is some what of a plus! Good work on an interesting peice, I havn't yet managed to get past the third level.

Nice elephants.

You know I am starting to strongly desire a well made non-stupidly difficult Roguelike with fun game elements that isn't dwarf fortress.

Unfortunately difficulty is often used as a substitute for gameplay... (DANG IT Demon Souls Why do people like you?)
