7DRL The Favored development

Watch as a program develops before your eyes. I took 5 days of development on my game for the 7DRL challenge and every time I ran a build (that showed some progress) I captured it and strung them together.

7DRL stands for 7 Day RogueLike. The challenge is to make an adventure game in less than 7 days. I went with traditional ASCII graphics in mine. If you can tolerate that and if you're interested in playing the game that you're seeing the start of the development here you can download it at http://www.cymonsgames.com/pages/favored/favored.zip

Ooh, this is nice, I love game creation time lapses :) What's the song's name? It's probably the best Mega Man II remix I've heard so far.

@noooodl Ooh, I didn't say in the description. Sorry about that. it's the minibosses. Best ever.

Ooh, bad luck. But that's the way the game is played. It's a roll of the dice every time. Glad you enjoyed it.

Cute game, it was worth the laugh (I enjoyed it a lot)! :)

The source code was written a little funny, I would've done it differently.

But then again, I've never used pdcurses/ncurses/curses, hahaha! :p

Did you ever write this with SDL? I'd be happy to know if you did! :)
