Title: Let me LP your 7DRL
Post by: Dewaldo on July 10, 2013, 11:20:15 PM
Hey, I've been following the Seven Day Roguelike Challenge for a few years and last year I decided to LP a few of the entrants (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4LHt8cVCRI&list=PL9367894F3389EF8A). I picked the games more or less haphazardly and didn't get around to playing nearly as many games as I wanted to.

This year I knew I wanted to cover a variety of 7DRL games but I wasn't too sure which ones to pick. I thought I would ask if any developers wanted my to do an LP of their 2013 7DRL game or other 7DRL games you would want to see?

There are lots of good ones. Numeron's entry this year is especially eye friendly AND it's super tough, so an LP would be fun. You could discuss strategy and such.

I'd nominate mine but it's pretty short, it takes several plays to be able to beat it, but too short for an LP. By design.

The reviews are up on the front page of roguetemple, so you can see how they are rated and see reviews of each one.

I'd love to see another Let's Play of Mosaic:

It's very hard to tell what the music sounds like for different people based on how they play, so an LP helps me a lot.

Maybe a good idea would be to cross developer-LPs (suggested on Roguelike Radio) with the Roguelike Incubator's feedback agreement - LP-swapping?

Not a bad idea! Who wants to LP-trade? :)

For me Darren your games sounds like a speed metal symphony as I jam on the arrow keys as fast as possible trying to loop around the outside of the game. Okay not really, but that's my preferred play style.

Cannot believe you came up with that engine as an afterthought. Nice.

As for another good LP. I recommend Lait's entry. Strange game. Worth a nice in depth look.

Sounds awesome! I just finished listening to your Roguelike Radio episode on LPs :)
