7DRLs / Rogue Sector [7DRL 2015 - SUCCESS]

« on: March 14, 2015, 06:06:12 AM »

It should have been a standard patrol mission. You had wrapped up your sweep and were returning to the Leviathan when a hijacked wormhole led you to this rogue sector. The good news: the onboard nav has calculated a route back to the Leviathan. The bad news: it's going to be a long trip through six sectors filled to the brim with asteroids and bandits.

Rogue Sector is inspired by the board game Wings of War (more commonly known for the X-Wing Miniatures spinoff franchise) as well as space dogfighting games such as the Wing Commander series. This marks my second 7DRL success; if you were around last year, then you might remember Succession, which took 5th place overall. I feel like this is a somewhat weaker game overall (although there were, shall we say, mitigating factors), but I'm happy to once again put forth a finished game after seven days of development, and Rogue Sector is a solid entry on its own merits.

You can play Rogue Sector from your browser here. Let me know what you think.

7DRLs / Succession (7DRL 2014 - Complete)

According to legends, this is it: the dungeon wherein lies the mystical Amulet of Zot. Whoever manages to retrieve it will gain great power and glory. Only... it probably won’t be you.



You begin Succession as a rogue adventurer: a smart but perhaps unwise fellow celebrating your recent victory over a dire rat by seeking the Amulet of Zot. You will probably die. And that’s where your adventure begins.

When you are killed by one of the dungeon’s many occupants, you start back at the beginning with one minor change: you now control the monster who killed your previous adventurer. Should you die again, you will return as the monster who killed that monster, and so on. Someday, you’ll die to something that’s strong enough to claim the Amulet.

Succession was created for 7DRL 2014 and is available for you to play right now in your browser.
