Programming / Re: Order of Execution In Turn Based Roguelikes

« on: April 07, 2021, 10:30:18 PM »

This is really interesting to think about. I'm not sure I prefer any one method. On the one hand, looking in random directions might be considered more fair in a game full of other randomness. But on the other hand, something that appears random at first due to the overall complexity or amount of interactions, but upon closer inspection is systematic and understandable has a sort of "seeing the matrix" aesthetic to it, which I also appreciate.

I completed a very barebones version of the timeline stack. It was a pain to balance, and in the end I decided for simplicity there's no way to lose.

I don't think it's particularly great as is, I'm not sure if throwing more traditional roguelike features would make this better or not.

One of my main weaknesses is that I haven't got a very solid base to start from... I really should commit to an engine and then put more work into creating a non-7drl that I can fork off of instead of starting over nearly from scratch all the time.

Anyways, was still a fun week as always!

7DRLs / [7DRL 2021] [Success] A 7DRL about alternate timelines.

« on: March 08, 2021, 02:52:44 AM »

Name TBD.

Idea:
When you are about to die, a new timeline is added to the stack. When you solve a timeline, you pop it from the stack and continue the previous one, but with your latest character stats and inventory. For balancing, the maximum size of the stack should be limited, and game over occurs when dying with the stack full.

Oh also your character is a Magical Girl.

Start time: Sunday 7pm PST

It be 6pm-ish PST on Sunday, March 4th 2018 and I'm starting on my 7DRL!

Initial design goals include bold movement options covering multiple tiles in one turn combined with attacks.
Aim this time is to work on the nebulous *fun* category.
After 6 years I'm ditching Unity and switching to LÖVE.

If you want to keep going in C#, but don't want to use the Unity engine, there are some options, for instance you could try using http://www.monogame.net/. Maybe its easier to do drawing in a game engine rather than trying to use the Windows GUI stuff directly.

Is it endless? I'm at level #20, and my kit is so good I seem unable to lose!

Edit: Ah lol, I may have encountered a game breaking bug that ended this run anyways! I *think* what might have happened was i used a planetball bomb and it completely covered up an item. The turn never seemed to finish, so i'm just sorta stuck heh.
