GearHead2, the game with more giant robots per square tile than any
other roguelike, has just reached version 0.620. Here are the
highlights:
* Dramatic Choice: At the end of an episode, your character will now
be able to decide the next course of action. These choices affect the
progress of the core story and ultimately its ending.
* The PCâs Home: Your player character now starts the game at home.
Thereâs not a lot you can do with the home yet, and your parents/
guardians/landlord donât have much to say, but at least you now have a
couple of places for stashing loot.
* 2D Graphical Interface: Classic isometric. Aside from a couple of
props which donât have sprites yet, itâs completely working.
* Full 3D Interface: There is a config option to turn on meshes for
all characters and mecha.
* Numerous Bugfixes: That âUnknown script value +1 -1â³ thing? Gone.
GH2 is available in both console and graphical versions. In addition
to the precompiled binaries for Windows, you can compile the game on
Linux, FreeBSD, and MacOS X. As usual all files may be downloaded from
SourceForge:
