Roguelike GCS is a toolset used for making roguelike adventures; it will include a scripting language, and several dungeon generators, such as a bsp generator, an approximation of the one from original Rogue, and an approximation of the one from ADOM.

The toolset is distinct from programming libraries such as libtcod, and functions more like a proprietary toolset. As such it is not possible to recompile the engine to a client's specifications. Roguelike GCS does not require clients to have any programming knowledge, although there will be a scripting language for more advanced users.

Scripting Language

An interpreted language called RogueScript is planned for addition to the play engine at a later date.
