farabaug@andromeda.UUCP (THE GREY SLAYER) (01/08/86)
I am writing a better version of rogue/hack. I have posted a request for ideas before but didn't get much work done. I now have sources to play around with so I am really working on it. If you have any comments, suggestions, new items, commands, monsters, utilities, bits of code send them to me. Also tell me what you don't like present versions of the game. At the moment I am planning to make the new games have 406 (count 'em 406) monsters, 8 character classes, and lots of new weopons and armor. Many more magic potions, rings, etc. will be taking up space in the characters pack. I also plan to try and fix the largest flaw of rogue. The lower level blues. Example: My twentieth level magic-user with the +9 plate armor is now walking around level sixty killing everything with his +11 two-handed sword. Killing dragon is no longer a challange. Might as well just bring the amulet up and go home. The new version should be challanging even at this level. send suggestions to: ...!topaz!andromeda!farabaug ********************************** * THE (CONSTRUCTING) GREY SLAYER * **********************************
