Worked on a power that creates a decoy that monsters may attack instead of the player. I was worried the code would be messy, but turns out I was pretty disciplined with my AI code and extending monster behaviour from only targeting the player wasn't too bad

Roguefort demo is coming to Steam for Medieval Fest 2026

I've written an update on the Steam game development and the road ahead, with some lovely new screenshots

Screen shot of an ascii-based roguelike game. The game is displaying the description of a monster called 'A troubled spirit' and reads: The ghost of an adventurer who died while terrified. These undead can now infect mortals with their dying fear. Plus also ghosts are just scary, you know?

Coming soon to delve #delve #roguelikedev

An alternative Delve

The horrors persist and yet so does delve development.

I've been mulling over some large changes to my core game loop.

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelikes #roguelikedev tomorrow I'll be releasing a new update with two less bugs after a folk on itch found out Door Destruction magic action (rod/wand/spell) was doing nothing.

Roguefort 0.3.3 introduces a Rift Wizard inspired spellcasting system, known as War Cheese, where you use magical cheese to cast spells

#indiegames #indiedev #roguelikedev #warcheese #solodev

A design dilemma I am having with #delve right now is that bows have unlimited ammo, but I've also added special arrows.

I gave unlimited ammo because I didn't want a player who wants to play an archer to have to micromanage their inventory.

Item description of an artifact in Delve. It reads +2 Tempest. Tempest: a longsword forged long ago to battle Greater Old Belesorad when they assailed these lands. Personally wielded in battle by Aenab Ruler of SPring. THere are many who say this weapon is of ill omen and brings with it a curse. This is a sword. It deals 1d8 slashing, 1d8 holy damage. It is rustproof.

I'd honestly forgotten that I'd implemented (a basic version of) randomized artifact weapons in Delve

demon summoning gone wrong #roguelikedev #indiedev #gamedev

3 variants of how the walls are rendered 1.) bright. 2.) darkened 3.) darkened with removed background.

I darkened down the walls in my game a lot.

It was requested by a bunch of people, because you should keep the unimportant thing dark and the important things bright.

I think it works quite well. The attention gets drawn to the rooms content now.
