I purchased the game a few months ago. You said then that you will release a PDF manual. Is it ready for download? I would love to get one. Thanks!

Got this working on my Gamestation Go using the lha file and uae4arm libretro core, works great!

That looks lovely!

I see you are doing a ZX version, any chance of putting that on a colecovision?

I've purchased the game but so far have been unable to get it to run. I'm ideally trying to play it on the A500 mini but only end up with a black screen after the WHDload screens appear. I've tried all sorts of things, even renaming the uae file as the one included is called "Roguecraft_DX_WHDLoad_1.8_ol.uae" whilst the LHA is "Roguecraft_DX_WHDLoad_1.8.lha" so I removed the "_ol" at the end of the filename but Ive had no luck. I've tried running it in WinUAE with no luck either and Amiga Forever just comes up with a "data invalid" warning when I try to open the lha file. Any help or guidance would be very much appreciated!

The README file includes a troubleshooting section, including the A500 Mini. We suggest re-downloading the files and following the troubleshooting guide.

Wow!  A new DX  physical version coming soon.  Is there an email list I can subscribe to so as to know when the physical version will be available?

 I previously purchased the original Rougecraft physical version and would love to get this updated version too.  

I am also looking for the physical Evercade version if you know where I can still get a copy.  

All the best!

lovely game with some very nice improvements … maybe one day a character Editor? :) I would love to be an undead skeleton human Rogue!! Ok… I’ll admit, I’d love the chance to add a host of Bloodwych characters!

Great Game! It Look so good on old ECS Agnus 8375 Amigas. Runs fast on my A2000 with 030 and lot of additional RAM. I miss a Save Funktion for old Man. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I will never see higher Levels.
