– Added extra races
– Many more skills
– Beware experienced monsters can now blitz

Beggar 0.5.1

Beggar is a rogue-like game written in java with XML inputs for expandability. I do hope you enjoy the game as the community and hopefully the additions grow! I encourage you to post any comments or thoughts on the sourceforge forums. God willing, I hope to remain an active developer for a while to come and look forward to input from those that matter… the end-users.

First Age Angband 0.3.0

FAangband’s principal focus as a variant is to immerse the player in the world of Tolkien’s Silmarillion late in the First Age. While it is certainly not perfectly consistent (all the bad guys are still alive; all the good guys are dead, or at least have lost their best equipment), an attempt has been made to remove as many anachronisms as possible.

Saffron 0.6.0

Saffron is a stealth puzzle roguelike. It is in the early stages of development, so should not be considered complete, bug-free or stable yet.

The player is a thief, who is given tasks by the Blackrock Thieves Guild. Every task is dangerous, so the player must use stealth, skill and gadgets to complete the objective and escape undetected.
