There are many different variants of Angband available. I think that Steamband is one of the best.

Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / Re: JADE 0.1.0

I've been waiting for this for awhile, but I was somewhat disappointed at the unplayability and critical game bugs of this version. (Yes, I know, it is not supposed to be a real playable game, but I expected at least a little something) Your weight does not go down from dropping items, but it goes up from picking them up, so you get totally overburdened after a short time if you pick up any items. Another serious problem is it goes kind of laggy, especially in the towns.

 I will be waiting expectantly for more releases of this which take care of some of these bugs.

Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / Re: Alpha (more like tech demo) release of my RL - 0.1.0

I downloaded and played this a bit, and I must say, it is quite playable for a 0.1.0 release. (much more so than the 0.1.0 release of JADE---let's hope that changes soon) Thanks for doing bug checking before releasing this. I had fun playing this and killing the goblin chief. The one strange thing I encountered is that the "human villages" found on the world map are completely empty. I am looking forward to improvements and new releases. Some things I would like would be the addition of shopkeepers, and more items. Right now you can find gold, but there is nothing to use it on.

Being a big ADOM fan, I really enjoyed this; keep up the good work!
