After completing my Dungeon Generation article series I started hacking around some code to walk around on my generated maps. Walking around on a fully visible map is Ok but you immediately realise the need for some kind of way to determine which parts of the map are visible to the player.

Dungeon Generation Article Series. Let’s make a multiplayer game. Temple of the Roguelike. Monthly Archives: April 2008. Dungeon Prefabs are Ready. April 27, 2008. I always intended to have support for some form of custom rooms in my dungeon generator. The idea is similar to Angband’s vault system, but a lot more generalized. Instead of using custom rooms or prefabs for vault encounters, I wanted to supplement the dungeon generation with custom built rooms or sets of rooms. The room and door generation c...

Dungeon Generation Article Series. Let’s make a multiplayer game. Temple of the Roguelike. Monthly Archives: October 2009. Simple Game #2 – Iteration 1. October 18, 2009. My first idea was to make use of a cone field of view to simulate actor line of sight and orientation. This will probably be the best way to go ahead, but right now I’m not in the mood to research some new technology. I will make do with my current FOV implementation that does not take into account the orientation of the actor. For simp...

Dungeon Generation Article Series. Let’s make a multiplayer game. Temple of the Roguelike. Monthly Archives: December 2009. December 18, 2009. That initial town started me thinking about crafting playing areas where everything had a function. As per my previous posts, I will explore the potential of using a village (and surrounding areas) as the main questing area in the context of a roguelike. It is these indirect consequences that I would like to explore in a game design. I am hoping that direct fe...
