Reviews for "Red Rogue"
Very good game. I wholesomely enjoyed it.
Somehow I got my own face after dying with an undead rune, and I equipped it to @, reversing the roles. He had some neat black hair.
Jojiro here. With such an in-depth game and with so many plot twists that are hard to fully explore without multiple replays, I really wish you'd mesh this in with Newgrounds achievements. I recognize that this is a finished product and adding those seems terribly unnecessary since it is also a downloadable game, but those NG awards provide some direction for players who are perhaps newer to roguelike games.
I'm...new to roguelikes, myself, and honestly really enjoyed myself. For those who are having trouble getting beyond the later floors, keep in mind that when you open a portal to the overworld, it stays, even after death, so you can go to a tough floor and level up faster (solving a trap on floor 10 when you are level 1, for example, causes you to go up 4-5 levels).
My formula for success was swapping between a heavily enchanted Drow Face and a decent Wizard Hat while using ranged weaponry. Drows can see in the dark and detect enemies with Infra Vision, so it makes the game that much easier.
Other small changes that you probably won't make. Haha. :P
-Multiplayer should allow @ to be able to see. This would be so much fun in multiplayer if that were possible
-The musical score honestly got old really quickly for me. Acquired taste maybe. Sorry Poxican...the droning nature of the music just irritated me
-Quickening enemies kill you. This is fantastically unhinted at and horrendous to behold-though it adds challenge I guess.
-You are amazing. Please develop another game like this (is this a sequel or prequel to another game?)
WE NEED SAVE FEATURE
good game, only problem is no save feature, i die around the 4-7th floor everytime, and i am tired of having to start back at the beginning for no good reason.
