About Craftband

Craftband, originally an Angband variant, is now a from-scratch Roguelike that allows players to craft their own magic items. See the wiki for the design vision.

In Development

Craftband is switching from an Angband variant to a from-scratch Roguelike. More progress as it becomes available.

Near-term Wishlist:

• More terrain (doors)
• Time system
• Combat system
• More monster behaviors - charge player, run from player, etc.

Middle-term:

• Map file parsing?
• Monster type files?

Long-term:

• Inventory
• Items
• More advanced combat
• Magic?
• Level generators / towns or camps
• Level switching

Current Release: None

This project is currently in the very early stages. Feel free to leave feedback on the wiki, and tell us your ideas for how to improve it!

Current features: A single bare room. Movement and wall collision is detected. The viewport also scrolls, allowing maps bigger than the viewing area. The "look" command is complete. Games can be saved and loaded from a single save file (in binary format).

There is a single monster type that randomly walks.
