Slime Salad

I believe I found another bug. I got to the 3rd floor as a Rogue. I ate some chameleon meat. I shapeshifted into an Emu, and then a little while later I shapeshifted into an Imp, and then within just 2 or 3 turns it said that I returned to my original form and the "Shapeshifting" status w...

If you tried the game earlier this evening, there's a good chance you played a version where the monsters spawned at 400 times the rate they should. If the first floor of the dungeon seemed really crowded, give it another try.

I like that, but I ended up going with another suggestion for the gnome. The game is now finished, plus or minus a ton of testing, rebalancing, and bugfixing. I haven't played much since adding in mob spawns, but I can say that the game won't be as toothless as I originally anticipated. That said, o...

That might be amusing, but it would be inconsistent -- you take the unpolymorphed form of anything else that kills you.

I saw the "That monster is too far for you to hit." message, but after that I could not click on anything. Fixed, thanks. The first dungeon floor is (intentionally) extremely easy. If it weren't for emus, you could usually clear the floor without taking a single point of damage. Regarding...

I was referring to visual splendor, but yes, that works. http://www.slimesalad.com/misc/images/wip/succession-day4.png Not pictured: I decided just now to take the action log font size down a pixel as well. The game is very nearly finished. All monster abilities except the gnome's should be implemen...

Succession.

Needs a little more pizazz, but it's there.

Hoping to have the game ready for testing by EOD Wednesday.

Potions and killing things. Next step is to make things kill you back.

Looks nice! Is it going to be entirely client side js? Yes, as with Brood. 7DRL got some extra press this year with the addition of the Procedural Death Jam . Anything eligible for 7DRL is eligible for PDJ, though the reverse may not be true. Succession is semi-notable for (perhaps foolishly) not r...

Monsters and items. You can't do anything with them yet.

(Now with the correct screenshot)

Here is the game after Day 1.



Tomorrow, the monsters go in the dungeon.

should totally be a bonus ending for beating the game as the starter rouge You are not the first person to suggest this. Rogue probably isn't the worst form -- zombie is strictly worse until you've found three health potions -- but it's the only one that doesn't benefit from succession bonuses at t...

I'm attempting an entry in the 7DRL competition this year. It's largely Your Average Roguelike, but the twist is that when you die, you restart the game as the monster who killed you. Each monster has its own distinct abilities, so if you're having a hard time, just let something new kill you. I hav...

Why in the world, and how in the world, is slime salad such a prime target for hackers and spambots? It's not like this place is ultra famous or anything. It's no more a target than anywhere else. This is the first time that the site was actually hacked, and spambots are ubiquitous, especially on p...
