Notables
Final release coming soon.
It took some time, but here it is! This update features six new spells, over 90 new creatures (some of which may deal supernatural damage), many new traps and even a few new unique monsters.
Privateer ASCII Sector 0.5.0.1
When you save an ejected pilot and take him/her to a base, you’ll now also receive a random amount of credits (beyond having your standing with the pilot’s faction increased).
You are a human infiltrating an enemy installation populated by psychotic robots.
Blast Tactics is a mini space-roguelike puzzler incorporating elements of the classic Asteroids,

Ironically, despite my long-term goal of less violent options (diplomacy, non-fatal combat, etc.), the game is currently so bloody and twisted it makes me cringe. In delight. I’m only human.
Downfall has many features common in Roguelike games, and also has some unusual features.
Probably the easiest way to describe Expedition is that it’s (kind of) like Colonization meets Seven Cities of Gold meets ADoM.
The gameplay didn’t move a iota. It’s a polish-only release.
My roguelike has been completely rewritten from scratch.
You begin on Zot:5; monsters are generated in waves, swarming in from the upstairs. You must prevent the monsters from reaching the Orb of Zot, which you may not pick up or apport.
There are two reasons I’m doing this. For the programming practice and to make it open source
An interim release
Peleron’s Brilliant Rebirth 0.105
It’s been around 2 years since I last released anything related to Peleron. I have not buried PBR (Peleron’s Brilliant Rebirth) — it’s just been real life taking its toll.
Now instead of stupid generated levels one of templates is used. Levels are smaller, everyone is faster, everything should be much more fun.
The game revolves heavily around tactical situations related to light.
Megacorporations employ freelance prospectors to find exploitable resources and map unknown planets for them. The player commands one of those scoutships, trying to become filthy rich as a prospector.
This is the last release for a while, if not forever.
Development
This version has many new features and improvements, including some related to RL development.
Try out room, corridor and outdoor designs without having to code them.
The engine was created based on the source code of some years-tested roguelikes, including CastlevaniaRL, DrashRL and ZeldaRL, and thus is relatively stable on the moment of its conception.
RLX is a Common Lisp graphical roguelike engine
Well it’s rather a non-news…
It’s meant to be a base for building new roguelike engines, not a game
Thanks for the good list of recent happenings!
