Vrogue: Vore Mod for Brogue (M/M) [Alpha Version 0.20.2]

[DigiThing]

hmm, im fine with that but can you make it so that when die, it scrolls down before you get the game over screen?

[Snowytiggy]

maybe have the option to scroll after you die, to review your fate~ I'd like that :3

[del5b24eted5sb58]

Even though the top drop down thing is a little buggy, this is a AMAZING game. Im really impressed

Thanks, but most of the credit goes to the original developers. I think there is a link to the base game at the top of the thread.

Love this game's latest update! Too bad I'm so rubbish at it... Any tips or tricks to get a noob like me past level 10?

I honestly don't recommend it, given that there is not yet anything interesting beyond that point.

However, I've had success searching early floors thoroughly for magic items before things get difficult. Test potions near water, since water should protect you from Potions of Incineration, Caustic Gas, and Creeping Death. Once you have identified Potions of Life and Strength, identify future potions by throwing them at enemies.

Clear the level and ensure you have full health while testing scrolls, just in case it turns out to be a Scroll of Aggravate Monsters or Scroll of Summon Monsters. In the case of the latter, try to have an exit strategy like a pool or a pit to jump into. Water and pits are generally good for escaping, as Gulpers are weak enemies and fall damage cannot kill you.

Remember that you can force enemies to fight if they are predator and prey by tricking them into moving next to each other. This can simplify encounters with groups of troggs, and the health predators gain by digesting prey is not very significant.

Thank you for the response and the info! I'll take you're advice to be sure.

One last thing. I noticed a stealth counter in the corner. Is there a way to enter stealth mode? Or is it simply stating the minimum distance you can travel before aggroing a mob?

Thanks again!

My experience has been that resting for one turn will put you into "stealth mode" reducing your stealth number. However, it will only be for that turn. If you start to move again you will lose your stealth bonus.

By the way, great work so far, Myconid. If you'd like any predator description, verbs, and lines written I'd be happy to help. Tell me which ones you may want descriptions for and I'll give it a go.

[TheHungryELf]

Hello, it's me again. Sorry for disappearing when you asked me a question.

Well, let be give you an example of what I meant by unique monsters...

Take my Wood Elf, now make a variant that can only spawn once, and only one of them and exist EVER. Once slain, it can never spawn again unless by command prompt.

Now, let's give this new unique monster a name, something like... Blue Talron. Now, he can't be a run of the mill wood elf, he has to be stronger. He should have around 3x HP, 2x armor, 2.5x attack, and should drop different items when killed. Perhaps some good items, like an heavily enchanted elven long sword (If that's in the game). Also, maybe we can give him a higher chance to vore people, as he is a stronger monster. And now only that, let's give him a vore type new to wood elves, cock vore.

Also, he should have a different description, something talking about his power or something like that. Something along the lines of...

"A cheerful Wood Elf armed with his favorite sword. While he might seem like a friend, his hunger makes him a foe. Strong and swift, this elf aims to cut you down then swallow you alive, or if he already has someone churning away in his belly he would be happy to have another toy to play with. While he's as strong as a knight, his young age (for an elf at least) makes him a bit playful and childish."

I hope this has given you enough information on what you need to bring unique monsters into the game.

[Snowytiggy]

Buncha stuff....

I hope this has given you enough information on what you need to bring unique monsters into the game.

Look, I don't want to burst your bubble, but I highly doubt that this is going to take place. For one, it would require altering the mob spawning code and or essentially writing in more scripted mini bosses, thus altering the balance and storyline of his original game. I would be less inclined to even comment on this, but I feel the wording used in your post was not fair to myconid, and seemed highly presumptuous. I don't know if it was your intention, but the wording gave the uncomfortable impression that you were trying to forcibly self insert your OC into another person's work, and automatically assuming he was going to do it.

As far as the content itself goes, there's plenty enough variety as it is in the monsters being included, and several dozen levels to explore with 3 boss battles that are already tougher than average planned. The addition of further mini bosses or unique variants of common enemies would add undue burden on the maker who has already given up much of his time and energy to this project for FREE. It will have plenty enough to do, eat, be eaten by, and the random generated dungeons mean the replay-ability will be near infinite without further delaying the project with unnecessary difficulties.

As I said before that I may be wrong in my interpretation of your post, but I cannot help but feel the tone seemed rather entitled, as if myconid must simply bow down and acquiesce to your every desire. If I'm off the mark then I apologize, but I felt it needed to be said.

[Rowan]

I agree with snow, also he's passing out the source code when it's done so you can do it yurself.

[Balgias]

Checkin' erryday hoping for an update mang.

Simple, this game might be it's amazing to me, keep trucking along. If you'd like donations I'de suggest setting something up, there's a lack of -quality- vorish games like this.

I was just giving a suggestion, and that was just an example, to give him an idea of what to do. He did not have to use my EXAMPLE, it was an EXAMPLE. I wrote my words like a tutorial, not a command. Jeez, you don't have to be like that. I was just trying to suggest a feature IF he wanted to do it.

[Myconid32]

Easy now, guys. There's no need for raised voices (so to speak).

Thanks for clarifying your idea, TheHungryElf. It's interesting, but I'm afraid it wouldn't fit within my current conception of the game. However, as Rowan points out, it won't be too difficult to add such a feature yourself once the source is released.

As far as the current progress of the game is concerned, there was a slight hiccup when I realized that the base game's method of handling special abilities is limited, and I frustrated myself for a while with testing before I realized it. Now that I know the issue, I can work around it and progress can continue.

Sorry to everyone I've kept waiting. I know you're checking in frequently and I appreciate it, but it will still be a while.

I don't suppose there's anything we can do to help? I'm not much of a coder, but if there's something I can do to help I'd be glad to do so.

I don't think so, unless you know someone who wants to fund me for a few months

Nomnom nom

[wolf1231567]

I can't find a lot of the monsters named in the "Monsters currently in game" list. Why is this?

P.S. Love the game! Thanks for making it.

{Edit} Nevermind, I'm just a hopeful idiot who missed the words "And planned" in the spoilers list.
