This is brilliant! Love the mix of lore, laughs, and hic light-heartedness. Tangaria just became my favorite tavern between dungeon runs.

Hello there!
Recently updated to 0.6g version! Comes with couple minor bugfixes and some other minor gameplay improvements.
Already working on the next, which is going to be a necessary re-balance of the Inventory.

As always, thank you big time to those who are downloading and playing this my little ZAng Variant ^^

Too bad I missed the survey! Replayability in roguelikes is such a rich topic—if you’re ever sharing the results or insights, I’d love to check them out.

Sounds awesome! I love seeing classic games get remastered with care. Really curious about the QOL improvements in version 6.0.0 — any favorites you’d recommend checking out first?

When you say changes in the PNG for PWMangband aren’t possible, do you mean the game ignores your replacements or that the file is locked somehow?

This is awesome! As a fan of both roguelikes and Hokuto no Ken, I love seeing projects like this come to life—even more so on a PS Vita. Really cool proof of concept! Looking forward to more updates if you keep tweaking it.
