Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / Re: Lost Labyrinth 4.8.0 is out

« on: February 17, 2012, 06:35:37 PM »

I have to ask them about that.
In the release system I see only one entry for Windows and 2 for Linux.
Seems 64 Bit is not existing for Windows or it works differently.

We will continue with the worldlevel as this was too big of a change to make it in the 4.8.0 release.
But the roomeditor already supports editing/creating townblocks as well.
So we just have to polish everything up and make it really work.
The 5.0.0 will be a big step for laby.

Classic Roguelikes / Re: Lost Labyrinth 4.7.1

Now we are working on laby 5.0.0.
This will be big step forwards as the next version will feature 2 major improvements:

• Game will finally have a world with different dungeons in it.
• And it will have a roomeditor so the players can modify the rooms the game has and create new ones.

In the end we want it to be that players can upload their roomcreations to the homepage.
And all players can then rate them.
We probably should give them a difficulty rating if its a good room or a bad room and how good or bad it is.
That people can select their unique roommix if they want to.

Cheers,
Markus
