Brogue Tiles For Mac

Jun 04, 2009  Window Tiles lives in your menubar where you quickly bring up a menu and choose how you want to organize your open windows. Tile your multiple windows vertically or horizontally. Set the two front windows to take up seventy and thirty percent of the screen, or sixty and forty percent of the screen.

Roguelike games are marked by four main things: randomly generated levels, permadeath, turn-based gameplay and (usually) ASCII graphics. They also usually have insane difficulty levels and absolutely unhinged gameplay mechanics that you simply can’t find in other types of games. I’ve written about my unapologetic for roguelikes before, but unfortunately, they’re very keyboard heavy games and that means that the very thing I love most about them (their unhinged gameplay mechanics) tend to make them entirely unsuitable for playing on a touchscreen device like an iPhone or iPad. It seems, though, that one of the best modern roguelikes out there has successfully made the transition to the iPad pretty much unscathed. It’s called, and whether you’re an existing fan of roguelike games or someone who wants to figure out what the fuss is all about, this is a game you should play. Roguelike games call themselves that because they all owe their heritage to a wonderful little game released back in 1980 called. It’s a simple game by modern roguelike standards — the goal is to take your hero and delve to the 26th floor of a dungeon, recover the mythical Amulet of Yendor, then return to the surface — but behind that apparent simplicity is an intricate tissue of fantastical mechanics and emergent gameplay that still makes it utterly compelling.

Brogue Tiles Mac

The idea behind the Brogue project is simple: “What if the original Rogue was continuously developed for 30 years?” It maintains Rogue’s adherence to a smooth learning curve, easily graspable core mechanics and ASCII graphics, but that’s where the similarities end. It’s an absolutely beautiful game that makes ASCII graphic look beautiful, dynamic and exciting again. Perhaps because Brogue is less complicated and keyboard heavy than most roguelikes, it makes a perfect fit for the iPad. In fact, you never have to open the keyboard at all, and it supports all of Brogue’s gameplay niceties, like auto-explore and even autoplay.

Brogue Download

Brogue only works on the iPad 2 or better running iOS 6, and to be honest, it’s a little slow. That’s not going to matter too much, because it’s a turn-based game, but there’s work to be done in this area. I don’t care, though, because as much as I love games like, this is the first truly faithful and uncompromised roguelike to successfully be ported over to the iPad.

Brogue Game

Now if only someone would do the same thing with. Brogue is free to download on the iOS App Store. You can grab it or, if you prefer, you can download the Mac version to play.

Regarding Spelunky: As much as it's a fun game, I wouldn't recommend it as a 'gateway RL', it being a realtime platformer, and all. Liking Spelunky doesn't guarantee that you'll enjoy Nethack. Brogue is probably a good suggestion. Depending on personal tastes, Legerdemain might be worth considering. The interface is not too difficult, it has tiles and a nice setting. Some quick games with a punchline: Teemu, Vicious Orcs.

Lastly, let me mention that my own game Squirm, for all it's shortcomings, was developed as a coffeebreak RL with new players explicitly in mind. As always, Minotauros. Well, at least I tried to get him to play the Vulture (graphic) version of Nethack.

Although he did surprise me the other day, when I was tooling around working on programming a prototype of an Ascii roguelike and he said, 'Hmmm. That looks kinda cool. I might be interested.' I've tried to work on getting him to see that it's gameplay not graphics that makes a game. I've actually got a Mame cabinet in the house with full arcade sticks/buttons/trackball and the kids have a blast playing Pong and Warlords on it.although it usually devolves into fighting and arguing sooner or later.

Version 1.8.1 with Oryx's tileset. Everything should look correct, but it still
needs more play-testing, so this is considered a beta release.

Tiles are enabled by default, but can be toggled by pressing 'G'.

Thanks to Sam Kirkham for the implementation, and Oryx Design Lab for the
permission to use the graphics.

This is the first release of Brogue: Community Edition! This update focuses on
addressing the most common community complaints with 1.7.5 -- most notably,
the balancing of allies. However, there are many other changes which we hope
will improve the game.

Gameplay changes

  • Wands of empowerment are now guaranteed to spawn in early vaults
  • Wands of empowerment have been strengthened to a middle-ground between
    their 1.7.4 and 1.7.5 versions
  • Wands of empowerment no longer increase the target's health regeneration rate
  • The frequencies of various special ally-related rooms have been reverted
    to their 1.7.4 values
  • Captive allies have been made more common
  • Wands of plenty now reduce the the maximum health of the target and its
    clone by 50%
  • Hidden doors and levers are now revealed when attempting to move into
    them. (This addresses an issue where players had to waste turns taking
    damage when trapped up against an obvious secret door by a monster)
  • Goblin conjurers no longer have the spear attack pattern in contradiction
    with their attack message
  • Magic-detected cells are now described with 'you remember seeing here'
    when the item has been seen
  • Changed the creatures hit as collateral from a spear attack to be the same
    as those hit by the sweep of an axe attack. (This reincludes hitting hidden
    monsters)

Bug fixes

  • Allies can no longer learn abilities from the spectral clones created by
    armor of multiplicity
  • Fixed incorrect percentages in the ring of wisdom tooltip
  • Excessive input during playback no longer causes long pauses
  • Fixed incorrect percentage health change info in sidebar
  • Low health alerts no longer show on every turn when using autopilot or
    watching replays
  • Fixed an issue causing the damage of staffs of firebolt and lightning to
    always be the average/expected value and have no variation
  • Fixed many more causes of out-of-sync errors
  • Fixed a bug which in some cases caused traps to be generated on cells with
    foliage, leading to odd behaviour
  • Fixed a bug which in some cases caused staffs to appear in treasure vaults
    without their max charges being shown

Other changes

  • The Mac version has been remade to be the same as the Windows and Linux
    versions. (Unfortunately, this means it has lost some Mac-specific polish,
    e.g. it is no longer an App. This will be improved in future releases)
  • Turning on autopilot now requires confirmation
  • The 'blue' player-to-monster combat information is now displayed in ally
    tooltips (so you can more easily assess how much health they have)
  • The sidebar now displays whether a monster is carrying an item
  • The maximum seed able to be input in the main menu is now the same on
    all platforms (2^32 - 1 = 4294967295)
  • Added a --print-seed-catalog command line option to recreate the seed
    catalog
  • Various minor UI tweaks and bug fixes

Errata

Brogue
  • To disable Gatekeeper prompts on Mac, you should run sudo spctl --master-disable; not with --master-enable as the README states.
