In-dev Android roguelike - Cursed Dungeons

[devilbuddy]

Hi,

A bit of cross-posting from here http://roguetemple.com/forums/index.php?topic=2224.0 but I thought this was a better place for getting feedback.

I'm developing a game for Android phones, the latest build is available here:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4495934/zrl_Android.apk

A youtube vid of an earlier version is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SkF9tkVi-g

It should work on most handsets, but I haven't really tested on any tablets (yet) so I don't know how it looks there.

Regards

Magnus

P.S. The game title is just placeholder gfx

Hi,

I have made some progress on the game now. And finally also a more "official" public release. If you would like to try it, please check this post for details:

Or if you're lazy, the Android APK can be downloaded directly from here:

If you do try it out - please post some feedback.

Cheers

I wasn't expecting too much from something this early in development, but I had a lot of fun!

A lot of these suggestions are kinda nit-picky, and I don't know your current plans, but here they are:

1) Can you put in a map feature at some point? It took me awhile to find the second floor because I couldn't remember where I haven't looked yet, and sometimes got disoriented.

2) A tap-and-hold feature to move continuously until released. This is more laziness on my part though.

3) A zoom function. My screen is averaged sized, but my fingers are kinda thick. It makes it kinda hard sometimes to tap/swipe the enemy since my finger takes up a decent portion of my screen.

I really liked pretty much everything else. The UI is really nice and the controls are easy. I also like how food respawns. I've subscribed to your blog, and I look forward to future updates.

Edit 1: Will you be charging for the final product? I'm having a lot of fun, so I'd definitely pay for it, within reason of course.

Edit 2: I really like the QR code download thingy. Keep doing that!
