Really didnt know where to post this, but Iam sure there´s quite alot of "fine aged users" who played and still play "rogue like" games. Might want to share your games, findings.

I have recently got back to RL games and two that have cought my attention and time are...

Cogmind:

It´s still in development (version Beta_6), but plays very well and Josh seems a nice guy. Having alot of fun with this one. A scavanger robot based RL where you find/use parts from other robots you shoot down, hack terminals and other neat things.

Home site:
Cogmind

Forum:
Cogmind Forum

Available direct (no DRM + Steam key), or via Steam.

Tutorial:

Caves of Qud is another great RL that´s currently also in EA that Iam enjoying alot.

Been in development since 2007

Home site:
Caves of Qud

Available on ITCH.IO, GOG and Steam.

Tutorial:


Fun video with fans and devs...



Both very well recomended.

Gnomoria a Dwarf Fortress clone that´s actually easier to get into and has tiles/sprites.

The game is finished (out of EA), but has been abandoned by the dev, although mod´s keep it alive to a point.

Available on Steam and GOG.

Re: Rogue Like - 08/06/18 05:46 PM

Yep, Gnomoria and Stonehearth both abandoned now.

and yet... DwarfFortress is still being developed and expanding massively. biggrin Toady One made 8k in donations last month. It is pretty amazing that he can still rack in the money for this game. Grated it's not get rich and retire money but it is still good money.
Posted By: RedOneAlpha

Re: Rogue Like - 08/06/18 07:14 PM

Wow 8k that´s real nice, I bet the dev is real proud that DF is so loved by the community. That´s nice!

I picked up Gnomoria real cheap which is just fine for me. It´s also gonna serve me as a steeping stone for DF in the future. Really liking this genre lately, with Cogmind and Caves of Qud Iam re-discovering RL again. These last three that I posted are a bit like fillers for when I want a change but overall happy with all of them.

Let´s hope this one below dosent fall and keeps momentum for the genre aswell...

Ingnomia (Steam)

In other words, let´s hope he dosent abandon ship!

Just picked this one up on Itch.io...

Soulash, it´s still in development, but worth the support. Quite playable and there´s a demo too. Dev seems quite active which is good indicator, and for the price of some nachos with cheese, why not give it a go! biggrin

Itch.io Store:
Soulash Store page $9.99

Demo gameplay...



Also picked up from Steam and on sale...

Redkindling, also in development, but again worth the support, and at the sale price of two beers (€3,39) what the heck! It´s actually quite fun and playable, dev is also active with updates every week.

Redkindling Steam store €3,39 (15% off)

The vid is a month old and some things have been changed, for example you don´t have all the stuff shown from start, but you can get an Idea of whats it all about (Rimworldish)...



Have fun!

Insurmountable is a rouge like survival game were you play a lonely mountaineer. Choose from three characters and conquer three randomly generated summits which include random weather and events. Remember you need to climb back down!

Steam store:
Insurmountable Steam store



At last a game about mountaineering and with NO killing!

As a mountaineer myself I think Iam going to enjoy this, and it seems more of a relaxing take from your typical run and gun theme so yeah Iam all for it! Random means you can get good replay value too, so 10/10 for me.

Red
Posted By: RedOneAlpha

Re: Rogue Like - 05/02/21 05:29 PM

Took me 106min. to climb the first summit using route 2. First impression...

I´ll start by saying it´s a slow paced game, but you can speed it up a bit (spacebar) but it´s set at a fixed speed, so there´s just one faster speed to choose from. The game is still being worked on so that might change, as other things in the game. The game looks nice in it´s ultra settings and plays smooth on my old i5 + GTX1060. Relaxing game with music to go along with it. Some events are repetetive but I only climbed the first mountain so who knows if that will change once I try the second summit.

At first the game looks simple, but as you climb higher things start to get hairy, add that to some unfortunate event resaults and things twist as they would in a real life situation. While you do need to plan your path and manage your resources as you would in a real hike, things get challenging. As you cross the 6000mt. (death zone) things get worst and you need oxygen, supplys and such are hard to come by so your on your toes here. You do get buffs which do help out but I did find myself struggling at about 200mt. from the summit. Once you reach the summit there is a good sense of achivement I must add, and I did feel like it took me some hard work to get there, but the worst was yet to come! I was pretty beat up and with little resources left. It was a long way to base but I manage to make it.

I had fun playing it. You could always try it and if you don´t like it then get a refund. You will have enough time to make the first summit.
