Mark my words "ASCII Haven"

this was super cool. Was just throwing it on while I worked and ended up downloading rexpaint, so awesome. Thanks!

This talk is fantastic story in itself. 😀

ADOM is fantastic.

Very good talk.

The item based progression system reminds me a lot of the deck building games that are really popular these days, like slay the spire. Very interesting!

I've played Cogmind for a very long time. It's really awesome and just has so much content and possibilities in each run. There are so many different endings too!

My favorite old-school Roguelike. Dive deeply, adventurers!

for me character classes kills real diversity of play in games. For example, battle brothers have no hard-coded classes while new xcom series are build on classes - resulting in battle brothers have more diversity in building your roster with different roles and some unique plays for different players. Same as POE having different characters' origins yet same talent-tree (just start at different nodes on it) have much higher diversity in progression and endgame builds than diablo2/3 which. Also lots of rpg-like game (wow/d3/d&d games for example) not only provide unique experience for different classes, but also just cut some gameplay mechanics into chunks and prevent some classes to access them - it really annoys me. So i agree with Brian a lot - let your journey build your character, his strengths, let his (yours) behaviour to determine his class.

Also another super weedsy question - the version of Rogue, prior to Michael going to Berkeley, what features did that *not* have at the time - starvation and armour were mentioned but was there more than that? Was it completable by getting the amulet right from the start, or did that come later? Also was there a time when the dungeons were not random?

On influences - were Michael and Glenn playing D&D, or were they in a campaign prior to or during the development? And would either describe Chronicles of Narnia an influence (or any other book at the time like Lord of the Rings?) And regarding the development machine - was the first distribution of the game on a PDP-11 or a VAX-11?

Very good talk! Not surprising that a very funny game is made by a funny guy

I find the idea of a roguelike on a smart watch extremely entertaining

One thing I love about this is how happy Tarn is while Zach is speaking. They're such good brothers. You can tell they really inspire and look to each other in all of these things. You can see him hanging on every word his brother says and its just great to see.

When did the snakes change to slime? Good idea, added an extra challenge. The Aquators still drive me nuts!

yes, I suspected Minecraft was inspired by Adom - and now it's confirmed!

24 years... I spent 5 years of my prime period in life to finish the damned game!

Your to crawl fixes suck no food? Dumb. no curses? Boring. you are ruining your game. Instead of creating risks and fun your forcing games to all be the same.

The way Tarn looks at Zach is so entertaining. I've never seen Tarn look so happy as in this.

I could listen to Brian talk about roguelike design forever.

Um....your nebula is circling in the wrong direction! That is unforgiveable!

so the nemesis system wasn't even original how dare WB to patent it now

Got to ask Pender (Brian Walker) a few questions today! Made my night.

"We're getting close to 1.0" ;)

This is so cool! What a brilliant collection of designs and ideas!!!!!! Love it! This is awesome!!!!! Good public speech too! ROCK ON SIR!!!! Good Job!!!!!

What game is he talking about at 9:24?

cool to see incursion got in the collage, i didnt know it was popular

For me Caves of Qud is better. But ADOM is still awesome!

Is there a Nobel praise in Gaming Developing category? :) Dwarf Brothers deserve it

This is a great video. This brings to mind even trivial actions in games which can be exploited and thus leave me wondering why it wasn’t done differently. For example, in Mafia 3 you can call a mobile weapon shop to your location and purchase guns or refill ammo. There are a select number of guns that are “free” in game (whether unlocked or because of the [now free] DLC) and when you switch to them you get full ammo for the weapon. It costs money to refill your ammo for these guns, but if you simply switch to another free weapon in that category and then back to the gun you want to keep, you’ve gotten your refill for free. If I were a designer or play tester it feels like it would be the first thing I noticed: why not make ammo refills for free guns be free? It’s trivial in that it only takes a few more button presses, but it is the same type of energy as any of these examples mentioned, where x amount of effort achieves something without real danger or detriment to the player/run.

I wonder where they got the inspiration for their UI layout, cat vomit? The scribblings on the wall of an insane asylum?

well, this is history

Seems to me, dwarf fortress is perfect for a voxel mine craft like 3D version.🐯🐯🐯🐯

Time to make a fort of demigods

BUG-REPORT: There is something wrong with your site. I can only give Josh's video one thumb. Please fix, thx. :)

Turns out when you don't waste 80% of your time programming the shiny visuals, the systemic ideas get implemented rather quickly. Yes, which is why I'm periodically asking myself the same question - what if the driving force of games weren't graphics, but systems?

ngl tarn kinda hot

for as much time i spent playing this game and playing with the code thank you each. :) i've now gotten away from rogue and rogomatic code, but i have posted them to github and via my website: www.anthive.com/project/rogue/ github under github.com/flowerbug check the branches for the latest version. for rogue the latest version compiles and runs just fine on my system (debian testing) - just compiled and ran it yesterday to make sure. the rogomatic version that is the latest i have not had time to check to test out if it compiles or what else i need to change. ok, yes, an easy fix. install gcc-multilib and use the -m32 CFLAG and it runs. :)

I think there's a drawback to this approach in that the player can't roll a new character with a specific playstyle in mind IMO, an experienced player should be able to find the items they want for their character without complete random chance involved.

Great talk, and TIL about Tracery!

Kiss Rowdy... i knew there is boff!!!

'DragSlay' is making me imagine a game where you play as a drag queen. "Yass girl, slay!"

24 Years to develop a game? Bull$h1t

what is he talking about? Cat eyelids? The cat is a little "C" on the screen, what is he talking about eyelids and self cleaning

I hope GOG gets this game on their site, looks so good.

I wish this had more views! Such fabulous content!

super fascinating talk. thanks!

My knowledge of stone soup is shitposting on 4chan about considering everything useless clutter and removing all fun by streamlining everything. According to this talk, seems like an accurate description.

Damn! I need to visit the librarian in the Six Day Stilt and read some books!
