I love TOME and not many other roguelikes and I also love Caves Of Qud. Just keep in mind that you will need to learn a handful of keys and then everything will be great.

ADOM seems like it should be good but then it has things like "you were hit in the face with mud and have to use a special one-purpose command to wipe your face or you're blind forever"

As soon as I finish reading Land Of Lisp I'm gonna do this except in Common Lisp. If any of it works I'll post it on GitHub

I'm excited because I have no idea how to make games and also the tutorial uses a terminal graphics library. Not enough games run in the terminal, you know?

ToxicFrog posted:libtcod games don't run in the terminal Awwww mannnn...well, it'll still be fun and informative. Those games you mentioned do have really nice graphics. Maybe I'll try one with ncurses for round two. I'd also like to include 80's-esque sound effects, maybe procedurally generated with a synthesizer library.

The stretch goals sound like a longshot at this point. No audio logs I guess

Jalopy currently has a 50% discount on Steam, if that counts as a Roguelike
|
# ¿ May 2, 2017 00:38 |

There's lots of things to like about it. The levels are procedurally generated. It's also very difficult, sometimes to the point of being unfair. As an ETS/ATS fan, it has plenty of the laid-back driving I enjoy. Jalopy has a great aesthetic overall and should appeal to roguelite fans, but it's still quite unfinished. Well worth $6 imo.

Roguelikes are so cool and this is such a chill thread, especially considering the "hardcore" reputation of the genre.

I'm on the edge of my seat for so many Kickstarters right now. Anxiously awaiting news from Tangledeep, Jupiter Hell, that turn-based Mechwarrior, not to mention the still under development Caves Of Qud and Cogmind. Hopefully I can finish Sproggiwood (on normal) before one of them hits 1.0

Star Crawlers is really great. It's like a PC version of Etrian Odyssey with procedural levels.

TooMuchAbstraction posted:Could you provide an example or two of RPGs that don't do this? I'm having trouble coming up with any besides, say, Undertale. I think "numbers going up" is pretty integral to the genre. Maybe too far off-target here, but the Stalker series?

Just noticed this one, which is on sale for $2.50 until November 1. Steam isn't very good at highlighting lesser-known games, is it? I can search for Linux games with the Roguelike tag and still never see this stuff. http://store.steampowered.com/app/372080/Ananias_Roguelike/

I remember reading an article about Age Of Empires a long time ago. They calibrated the difficulty settings by measuring the success of their playtesters into standard deviations. It's not a very interesting way to create difficulty, but it did at least achieve consistency.

You should get Hydra Slayer while it's on sale and Hyper Rogue too for maximum aspergation

Cryptark is definitely not about full-time guns blazing. Stealth is useful, tripping alarms is bad news (but not necessarily fatal), and you need to plan what you're doing. It's fun, but also seriously frustrating.

brainSnakes posted:...Im still waiting on someone to basically remake Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall as a steam roguelike so I can die of starvation miles below the surface inside some insane underground lake tower, because Ive utterly lost the way out of its labyrinthine caves. Sounds a lot like Delver. It's early access and the Steam updates trickle out at a glacial pace, but the devs are actively working on it and stream frequently.
