Monster AI is great.  Also "never dying capriciously."  Cool!

Huh, previous post didn't post.

So, I'm making a rougelike.
So far, it uses the ascii set.
Minimalist title: Game
leet version: [, /\ |\/| [-

There's a procedurally-generated overworld with wandering monsters
with entrances to dungeons and caves throughout, randomly-generated each time you enter

you'll be able to make hydromechanical contraptions to trigger traps, darts, avalanches, lava deluges, etc.
and there will be a laboratory to make monsters

the idea is that you act as dungeon master to the other players, building a keep and storing your gold in it.
the more you acquire, the more other players and NPCs want to break in and steal your stuff
