Rogue Forest
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2020 3:49 am
This is a Rogue-like game, where you hack your way through a dense forest in search of a way out. Also, there's a rumor that the fabled Amulet of Yendor is lost somewhere in this forest. What a feather in your cap it would be to return with that!
The map is revealed as you explore. Aside from the Amulet, there are three other kinds of treasures -- weapons, armor, and food. Weapons and armor vary greatly in their effectiveness: pay attention to their descriptions and you'll learn which ones are better.
There are 31 monsters in the forest. They are currently differentiated by name only.
Movement is via the cursor keys. Trees are impassable, and usually immovable.
Escape the forest at the eastern or western borders.
"Bump" a treasure to inspect it. There are no traps, so all treasure is safe to check out.
"Bump" a monster to attack it.
If your hit points reach zero, you're dead.
Press the spacebar or the period (".") to rest and regain one hit point.
Type "e" to eat some food, if you have any. Hunger greatly reduces your combat ability!
Added in Dusan's simple sound effects library (it helps!).
