Hi all, I’ve just released version 0.1 of my shooter-roguelike: Data Sanctuary! It’s an open source game made in Java (using the Slick 2D game engine) and can currently be played on Windows PCs. Mac and Linux support is a planned feature. The game is a blend of an arcade style shooter and a typical roguelike, with randomly generated levels and a variety of traps and events. Though each level usually starts out calm, someone who isn’t careful will quickly find themselves in a deadly situation. See how high of a score you can get!The current version of the game only has one tileset, though in future versions there will be many. Other upcoming features include: Mac and Linux support Improved CPU and GFX performance A persistent high score list so you can track your achievements more easily Tons more levels and enemies Equippable weapons and possibly other equipment A saving and loading system to keep progress in a long game Music A gameplay driven storylineGame Download (you must have Java installed to play): http://www.mediafire.com/?zai9x7so685vchtSource Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?idqdvj2xr4dz12yAs of right now the source code is pretty messy. There aren’t a lot of comments, so if there’s a particular section of the code you would like commented just make a request and I will see what I can do. Otherwise you can ask questions directly. Please leave comments or email feedback to AlexanderZero@gmail.com.
Video onsite and I reckon this looks to be rather promising.
