So, feedback:
The new graphical interface looks very nice, and I noticed you implemented hunger. Cool.
I am having some problems with bugs, though. In most of my games, it seems like after a few minutes of play opening the inventory screen leads to some sort of error message, and then that screen then becomes inaccessible. On my most recent character, just walking over an item led to an error message. I did send error reports like the game asked me to, if that helps any.
I think that what you have done so far is a major accomplishment, though, and I'm definitely going to keep following veins of the earth.
It's a matter of how much you love numbers. I don't like stats like charisma that merely affect shop prices and such. For me, a more interesting mechanic would be different gender combinations interacting differently. It would be more realistic too, I think. Is there any game where a female PC gets lower prices if the shopkeeper is male?
those new tiles look good. Much better than the old t-engine ascii. I did have one problem though - I started a character who began in a room filled with ice floors and I could take on step and that was it. I couldn't move again. I presume that I was failing balance checks due to the ice floor, but it didn't make for much of a game.
This should be the Golden Rule for stories in RLs (also love the examples that followed). It`s basically why I play roguelikes; for things that I miss in mainstream games. There, the idea of lore communicated through assorted logs/books/scrolls have been used since forever, and yet it`s seldom meaningfully utilised. Sure, some classics like System Shock/Deus Ex use it to great effect, building atmosphere but also tying some gameplay in - important info or codes/passwords.
