Classic Roguelikes / Re: New version of Crawl released. What about DOS-version?

The solution is ofc to make a tiled version using ASCII-only tiles.

Programming / C# Point Class code
« on: May 04, 2010, 07:02:22 PM »
C# doesn't (unlike Delphi) has a cartesian point class so I went ahead and wrote one. All code public domain blah blah blah. Should work on Mono as well:

What did you use for the sound btw? I'm on the lookout for a decent C# sound library (preferably one that is cross-platformable using Mono).

Kharne Alpha 0.0.5b is now available
See http://kharne-rl.blogspot.com/2009/10/kharne-005b-now-available.html for full details (including source)
The big change in this version is the addition of Scrolls (press r to read them). There are currently nine different types of scrolls available, there will be many more added over forthcoming releases.
The full list of changes is:
* Scrolls have been implemented.
* Scrolls and potions are no longer PseudoIDed.
* Hunger is now increased by wearing magical items.
* Fixed a bug with cursed fountains not causing the character to hunger correctly when drinking from them.

No, start with the language you know best. Which seems to be BASIC in your case.

« on: October 04, 2009, 06:36:48 AM »you have a 2d array of objcts? as in swords and boots and stuff? how then would drop more than one item into onto a tile?
Linked list basically.
Each item object has an integer that points to the next item object on the tile. And so on and so on until the last item object on the tile has a -1 for this.
