I am pleased to announce my first new roguelike in (mumble mumble) years- Dungeon Monkey Eternal!
DME is a party-based fantasy roguelike roleplaying game. You control a group of up to four adventurers, who set off on a randomly determined quest in a randomly constructed world. The desired mood is that of a late night D&D session with friends.
Features:
- Classic dungeon RPG rule system, with 9 player species and 12 jobs. The mechanics were largely taken from Dungeon Monkey Unlimited, and several balance issues were addressed. All statistics are visible from the inventory/character sheet display.
- Turn based tactics combat. Players and enemies can use spells, stealth, and a variety of skills.
- Dynamic conversation system which customizes every character's dialogue according to dialect and the story state. This also applies to the player characters.
- Random world and story generation, including random generation of adventure game style puzzles.
- Completely written in Python. No more homebrew scripting languages!
Note that PyGame and Python 2.6 or 2.7 are needed to play.
