It's the first real look at the RogueTable system and is complete but no sound or monsters... YET!
That looks really cool, I love the way the flat graphics mix with the 3D.
You made your own engine for this? What language did you use?
Looks really epic!
I can not get through the gate.
It's written in monkey2, with a custom OpenGL renderer.
The 3d engine is completely my own with a very different light and shadow engine. Light will actually flow through a 3d scene - but not handled by the gpu - its cpu based, so support 4098 lights with no slowdown.
aha the gate has shut firmly behind you...
Version 1.02 is now up with added gold and monsters and permadeath
..i have reached up to this stage, how to proceed.. :) .. i like this very much..just flickering hurting my eyes..
