I'm working on a real, traditional ASCII roguelike (I believe its the fandom's first). The engine is being written from scratch, so I want to tune the font size by hand for the most popular resolutions. Let me know what your screen resolution is so I can include that to the resolutions the game supports. To keep up to date on the status of the game, follow the tumblr - https://remotedevblog.tumblr.com (which posts all updates) or the twitter - @RemoteRL (which only posts major updates)

Note, the game will run on macOS, Windows, and Linux.

You planning on having music?
>>
>>28635616
Eh, I don't think anyone has even heard of my project yet. Ill put everything I can into the game design and programming, but at this point I doubt I could convince anyone to compose for the game. I don't exactly have a budget for this game either, it's just something I put (all) my free time into.

1366x768
1920x1080

Anything else that isn't 4k is for Plebs. and 4k is impractical.
>>
>>28635690
Haha, I can totally tune for 4K, its on my list. I've already got 1920x1080, and Apples retina resolution for the macbook pro,

>>28635640
Well, I wouldn't mind offering my services for free. I don't want to sound like I'm trying to strike a deal, or oblige you to anything, but if sometime down the road, you wanted music, and didn't have any other offers at the time, I'd be happy to throw down a track or two.
>>
>>28635759
That'd be awesome, hit me up on the tumblr if you can!
>>
>>28635771
Sorry, I don't have a tumblr. Do you happen to have a throw away email address I can contact?

Thanks, I sent you a reply from the dev email
>>
apologizes for not being /vr/, but how does a ASCII roguelike work?
>>
>>28635992
basically, the main feature of an ascii rogulike is you sacrifice graphics for raw depth and complexity. learning an advanced ascii rogulike an take weeks *cough* cataclysm: dda *cough*

Anyway, everything is represented with letters, and your character is always an @ symbol. other than that, the controls are dependent on whatever the dev wants
>>
Probably shouldn't have started this thread at 11:00... Ill catch you guys tomorrow, gotta get some sleep
>>
Friendly bump
>>
>>28635992
Weirdly enough, ASCII roguelikes are still fairly alive today.

The actual definition is "something that's like the game Rogue", which is vague.

So something like a grid-based, turn-base dungeon-crawler with procedural generation of levels, permadeath, and the use of letters to represent what's on each grid tile.

Why don't you instead turn off your autism and work on a real adventure game with real graphics? Faggot.
>>
>>28637466
Making games with decent graphics is unbelievably Hardâ„¢.
It takes whole well-paid top teams of artists, programmers and designers years to release a real game.

OP is a high-school student, so maybe adjust your fucking expectations, fag.
>>
>>28635563
You made the right choice moving to a sprite graphics library rather than OpenGL.

OpenGL has a lot of shit to understand before you can do anything basic.

>>28635563
im sure you already know, but check out the steam survey, tells you what resolutions steam users have amongst other things

>>28635563
I read your site and am interested in it.
Good luck with it.

1600x900 pleb here. Color me interested OP, anything a non-tech savvy anon can do to help out?
