-A rogue-like can go through a number of development statuses on its way to becoming the next [[NetHack]].  These categories are used for the Status summary of a roguelike and also to categorize Roguelikes by.
+#REDIRECT [[Categories]]
-* [[Talkie talkie projects]]: No software has been released, and usually no code has been written.
-* [[Alpha projects]]: a development version with severly limited functionality has been released.
-* [[Beta projects]]: Beta projects are roguelike games which, while available to the public, are not yet ready to judged as finished products. Unlike [[Alpha projects]], they have progressed to the point where they are fun and enjoyable games if you can handle a few sharp corners.
-* [[Stable games]]: Stable games are roguelikes that the authors have believed reached a level of maturity that allows them to be judged as games in themselves.  Often, development is still ongoing, as rogue-likes are hardly ever finished. (Except for those that were developed in a definite amount of time, like Dungeon Monkey and the 7DRLs, of course.)
-* Defunct: the game is no longer under development.
