maemo.org - Talk - [Announce] Roguelike: calcrogue on extras-devel

Roguelike game called Calcrogue is now on extras-devel.

Game seems to be very unstable! Maybe default signess of char / length of short / endianness. I really have no idea.
(I can't even get it compiled for 64bit Ubuntu.)

Game is originally targeted for calculators and it is updated at year 2005 last time.
Webpage: http://calcrogue.jimrandomh.org/

This is native port (no calculator emulation). Curses based, ASCII only. No mouse, keyboard only.

You need ESC -key for going back to menus (e.g. http://wiki.maemo.org/Roguelikes).

Use smallest font of xterm, or second smallest+fullscreen (you can tune it during playing, use 'R' for redraw).

Keys:
Use '?' and 'a' for help and keys.
And this is list not shown on helps
'A'=about
'b'=stats
'h' =hotkey-menu
's'=search
'_'=debug-mode
'o'=open
'c'=close
'S'=save
'5' = When asked direction and want direct to yourself.

Options and highscore are saved, but saving game doesn't work.

Game is little bit grey, I think.

After installing run

Code:

root

chown -R user /opt/calcrogue/save/

Run

Code:

cd /opt/calcrogue ; ./crogue.exe
