Description

CryptRL is a Java 1.5 roguelike with sound and graphics, which uses the David Gervais tileset as well as the RLTiles library.

It's bilingual (english/french) and allows you to switch language ingame.

Its main influence is NetHack/Slash'Em (as for the ingame interaction)

Latest version, while being playable, is not the final version

Current version includes:tools (picking tools, picks, shovels, lanterns, oil flasks, etc), LOS, lighting, monsters, potions, weapons, armors, traps, chests, stats & skills, night/day cycles, teleporters, automap, parrying, spells, scrolls, weather effects, zoom , amongst many others, altough there are still a lot of features to implement. (e.g more spells, more monsters, more AI, amulets, shields, boots, gauntlets, quests, cities, npcs, etc....)

In the game some maps are pregenerated while others are random, all of them are persistant and the final version will contain thematic random generators for dungeons, ciites and wilderness (for instance a random room could be a laboratory. So it wouldn't contain the same features as a jail or a bedroom.)
