I think a lot of the tedium deaths in DCSS could be prevented by adding a good sound pack that announces boring yet tactically-relevant background text such as doors opening or hearing shouts or a foe stepping onscreen for the 2nd+ time.
On the other hand such occasionally-deadly attention lapses are good training for real-world tasks such as driving.

>>502915518
It's the "main" (though not original) and probably the most complex/interesting Mystery Dungeon series.
In case you need a QRD on Mystery Dungeon as well, it's a pretty basic console roguelike subgenre, the only progression you get is flat level ups and weapon/shield upgrades. They usually have a main story dungeon and a lot of various other dungeons in the postgame. Some of those dungeons let you bring items from previous runs in (you still lose them if you die, so you have to either win the run or put them into storage through various means) and are focused on getting your equipment as strong as possible, some don't let you do that and give you a proper roguelike experience instead, some can also have additional rules or mechanics on top of that.

how is dorf fort nowadays?
last time i played was with the steam release, but i was turned off by the graphics and the mouse controls that destroyed years of hotkey muscle memory, but im starting to warm up to it.
has there been many updates and additions since the steam release? i dont suppose there any way to play the new version with ascii graphics and the old controls?

>>502928092
this
arguably, the game is has plenty of influences from the west (little ones + big daddies being obvious bioshock references, entire combat system feels plucked from ADOM in totality, orcs are your LotR flavor orcs and not pigs orcs, architecture build pieces are largely medieval european-styles)
that's not to say there aren't lunar lantern festivals, hot springs, little girls saying "onii-chan", and people calling you a pervert every 30 minutes, but that feels like part of the charm desu

It's a new game, technically a prequel I think? So far seems like it's pretty comparable to base Elona, but with more (and I mean a lot more) focus on base/town building.

what do you guys think about BYOND?
do any of you care about the engine the game's written or nah
I've been really struggling with development in just C it's actual excruciating pain

it provides you with everything you need to make a tile-based game

>>
>>502982235
it's completely degraded but that's not the case here
I'm talking about development
it provides a grid based really easy to create environment
multiplayer doesn't even matter because one can just package dreamseeker.exe with a shortcut to the .dmb to distribute a game easily with no legal restrictions and user requirements for account registration
turn-based games can be made too
I got zero replies in a gamedev thread so I posted here
the question remains do you care about the engine a roguelike is made in
probably not
I don't have anyone to talk to
>>

holy fucking shit i had the best rng on my run today. got a putit in amber along with not having to leave meadow for stone and vine. i got riding and was like "know what im confident i can take a monster mission" on the board. it tps me in and im fucking riding my little girl and the monsters show up and my dumb ass panics as my little girl does no attacking whatsoever and i just die. so disappointing but the run was only 1.5 hours. this shit is like crack i'm gonna run it back later.

I strongly urge you to use any other engine. Hell, why not RPGMaker? It's not well suited for roguelikes, but MaidenSnow Eve works well enough, so clearly it's possible. And since other people actually use it, you'll have a nonzero chance of getting help if you get stuck.
BYOND, meanwhile, is not well suited for ANYTHING.
>>
>>502990569
>>502993990
>>502996091
>>502997321
clearly it was a bad idea to come to /rlg/ out of all places
I suspected that there would be an intersection between /rlg/ and some games done in BYOND though now I doubt it
just because the engine dates back to late 90s doesn't mean it's bad
it is indeed quirky however from a developer perspective it is simply convenient
again, I assume you never wrote anything in it hence the disdain
maybe it felt crappy for you back in 2010s because it had a lot of odd games on the hub back then made by literal kids because the engine was so intuitive that even kids made games then
the "easy to operate" does not imply being made for idiots, it's not visual programming, it has a highly capable C++ like language that compiles into bytecode that is then ran by the interpreter that is in turn could be hosted with the inbuilt server that holds up to 150+ players without any concerns for the developer
it's also designed to build tile based games which speeds up roguelike development
If I wrote the game and packaged it into an exe which is completely possible you wouldn't notice a thing
the inner workings are quite arcane and many complex games have been made with it
if one judges by financial success and player popularity then there's at least one remarkable game made by CandyMandy whom I have great respect to

There is no game
The fortress mode is okay for a little bit but there's no purpose to anything and one guy farming can feed literally every fortress I've ever had so there's no way to really fail since it can always be recovered from
Adventurer mode is just a clusterfuck since there's nothing remotely resembling balance and shit like a rhinoman can just fucking punch niggers through walls and there's still no point or coherence to goals or anything

>>503023964
to be completely fair, steam does have a strict price parity policy, and all the open source games i've seen that explicitly say they're open source in their description are free
don't get lost comes to mind (not a rl, just using it as example)
i don't know if that policy actually applies here though, it may only be "price parity for all store fronts" and they don't consider (or can't, legally) building games from source to be a store front. this is all speculation and ianal
DF also doesn't really count, because it's closed source anyway, and since the steam release is effectively a different game in terms of accessibility and graphical features, they might not consider the free version you can still get to be same game
i still don't think dda should be on steam for a fee

hackem. Its a lot of fun. I don't think its the best choice for a first time really trying to LEARN nethack since it seems a lot of the crutches that new players are meant to lean on like Elebereth get "yeeted" as the kids these days would say - but I really wanted to play a necromancer.
>>
>>503053205
Also I like the bones. I can dig up my past self and then control undead him. He sometimes spawns a mummy and then I get a free mummy, which seem really strong in the early game.
The grave did spit out a vampire bat once but unfortunately the game crashed before I died so I restarted the floor and go a zombie the next time. What a shame.
>>
>>503053205
yeah I wouldn’t do too well in it either honestly. still working on getting my first completion in vanilla. I’m running elf wizard but it seems like my runs hit a brick wall in earlygame if I dont get some super lucky pulls. current run is going good but only cause I got an unbelievably lucky wand of wishing pull in one of the early shops.
