Would you mind telling me what are the targeted screen resolutions and what are your game resolutions that you can then scale up properly And of course what is the "frame" size where you place the game area inside? And does the frame scale too or is it cut? Sounds very interesting ;-)

Thomas Haaks @thomashaaks.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
Thanks for mentioning it, @bahototh.bsky.social ! I should definitely write some more technical blog posts! Like how do the enemies behave? What issues did I have with Godot, Steam and C# instead of GDScript? How did I code my own build system to create all our (future) versions of Theralite?

rogue.rogueforge.net/rogue-3-6/ There you can find compiled versions based on the original source code for Rogue 3.6 around 1981. I remember playing it 1986 when I started software development at a Unix company. Later Larn and Moria. Aaah, wonderful memories ;-)

But that's the DOS version, right? The original(?) Unix version didn't have those "fancy" graphics :-) We only had the simple ASCII charset up to 128... So |-+ for walls...
