Back when Roguecraft was released some six months ago, we never thought the game would get so much attention, even outside of the Amiga community. The response has been amazing and very humbling, especially when the game won the Retro World Award at the recent Debug Indie Game Awards (that result was so surprising that the acceptance speech bordered on being a record short!).

As a thank-you to the amazing Roguecraft community, we have been working on an update that incorporates one of the most sought-after features: high scores! We have also made the transition time between rooms shorter for players with faster machines, as well as several updates and bug fixes (see below).  Thank you so much for supporting Roguecraft!

The latest ZIP file features the following updates and additions:

1. The new 1.5 version of the game on ADF, and also  the WHDLoad version of the game, for those playing the game on real hardware.

2. An updated README file with additional troubleshooting information for those wishing to play the game on the A500 Mini.

3. A copy of the game manual in PDF format.

Updates and bug fixes:

- There is now a Highscore screen.

- The high scores are saved when exiting the Highscore screen after Game Over or completing the game.

- Faster transitions between rooms. On a stock A500 you will notice a delay after the transition, but for faster CPUs the transitions will be faster. Transition is hiding unpacking and was timed to A500. Now it is timed to A1200.

- Some changes to the end boss to make it more of a challenge.

- The Teleport ability of Rogue does not cost a turn anymore.

- The Teleport ability and potion now teleports to a random door area, so it is more useful to get out of a tight situation.

- Monsters that walk into traps actually walk into the traps instead of just getting insta-killed.

- Added sparkles on the title screen!

- Updated Wizard animation (less crooked back and improved walk animation)

- Updated Gluthulhu animation (an animation was played backward in previous version)

- Updated wall tiles for secret rooms. These should be a little more visible now!

- Updated main font.

- Updated some level graphics assets.

- Some minor text tweaks where there was inconsistent casing.

- Also fixed some gfx garbage in transitions between screens.
