An all-new roguelike, written in Python, released as open-source software under the GPL. Will feature:

  • Both randomly-generated and hand-crafted levels;
  • Monster, level, item and profession editors.

Current Features

  • Monster editor to simplify the job of creating new monsters.
  • Level editor for creating hand-crafted levels (basic functionality).
  • Choose from a Mighty, Philosophical, or Blessed Hero.
  • Three different starting quests with distinctly different monsters:
 * The Tunnels of Lost Dreams;
 * The Necropolis of Zezun;
 * Arachnaxos.
