I already knew about 13th Age having its own SRD, and I looked at the retroclones - really interesting.

Zirael, if you tell me what this D&D based game you are talking about is, I will check it out.

Sure. Check out Veins of the Earth (silly me for forgetting to include the name)

By the way, have you ever played Incursion?  It's incomplete and will probably never be finished, but it's an interesting attempt at making a roleplaying-focused roguelike based on D&D.  I was impressed with it, and I think you will be too.

Oh, by the way, I was very impressed by incursion, Vanguard.  I've only read the manual so far, but the ideas that I have seen seem really cool.  I'm having some trouble downloading it, but I'm sure I will figure it out by this weekend.

Thanks for recommending it.

Gry3ling, you know there is a new attempt at making a D&D based roguelike? As one of the aims is making the game clear and easy to pick up, any feedback is most welcome!

I've played Nethack quite a bit on an Android phone (almost ascended one character). It's surprisingly easy to play. You can fully customize the layout of the keys, and have all the most common actions under your fingers. There is no need for an onscreen keyboard.

How do you customize the key layout? I couldn't find this option...

Aye, and it begs for color coding somehow. The core in red, Angband and it's variants in blue, any other stuff in green...

And why is Angband listed twice? (yes, I peered at the pic closely)

Congrats on this release----looks like it does some damage in a variety of areas you've been aiming at for quite some time now.   

The 0 and negative HP range situation is interesting---are there eventual plans for classes and/or races that gain various bonus effects or special abilities instead on the path from 0 to -9?

These are definitely possible in the future. I need to hammer out some bugs first and wrap up the mechanics (monk class, sorcerer class, innate spell-like abilities, cursed items. possibly item damage)
