Talk:List of Angband variants

There are now some Angband variants that are programmed in C++, not C. Perhaps it's appropriate to add the 'language' line to the templates? (Although nearly all are still C, I suppose) PaulBlay

Suggested alternative colouring system for table.

• Red = Defunct or Alpha
• Yellow = Beta
• Green = Stable

What do you think? PaulBlay

I would put alpha in yellow, with beta. Or it could be orange. Either way, they should be separate from defunct games. Nathan Stoddard 03:52, 31 March 2009 (CEST)

Some of those defunct games aren't as defunct as you might think, but that's another issue. OK I agree on separating them. Maybe ...

• Red = Defunct
• Alpha = Orange
• Yellow = Beta
• Green = Stable

?

(I'll have to see how icky it looks ;-) PaulBlay

Conclusion - it looks very icky. :-( I think a different method is in order. PaulBlay

Defunct games

For the purpose of this exercise I am counting as defunct games those that have had ceased development while in an unplayable state. Beta games are supposed to be mostly playable so I am not counting them as 'defunct' unless it is not possible to download / run them. PaulBlay

• I'm not sure Alex Angband is really defunct.
• Anime Angband is 'stable', but 0.6.0a looks more like a beta version number to me.
