Demonic presence at unsafe levels, podcast in effect! This week we summon a granddaddy of the traditional roguelike pantheon for our listener request week: DoomRL - Doom: The Roguelike. But we couldn't talk about a game with a 20+ year legacy without also crash landing on its gorgeous modern 3D remaster: Jupiter Hell. A traditional roguelike with...graphics? Voice acting? A b-b-budget? Come listen in on how to configure .ini files, assemble tactical rocket launchers, and learn how to be a sailor-mouthed hellish freight train on wheels. That's how we do things downnnnntownnnnn.

One more similar game that dropped after we recorded: store.steampowered.com/app/3126530/Jupiter_Hell_Classic/

I am super happy to hear you guys like Jupiter Hell visuals and mood

You should be proud, the game looks great and *flows* great. I hope it inspires many more tradRLs to follow art-wise. JH really sets a technical artistic standard above the rest in an impactful way. Listening to Kornel talk about the decisions to use Vulkan made a ton of sense and you can really feel how well optimized the game is as a result. Not something that a lot of people talk about or notice, but it always makes an impression of quality to notice things like that for me.

Thanks for this awesome review of DoomRL/Jupiter Hell - I waited to post this comment until I've listened to the whole thing cause I thought I'd need to do some clarifications but everything was surprisingly on point considering this is almost video game history at parts :). I'll mention here that DoomRL 0.9.9.8 is coming out really soon and will bring the game a little bit closer to modernity :). Also, kudos on a really good shot at pronouncing the surname!

Thank YOU for all the hard work on both DRL and JH. It's taken a while to find a couple games that routinely keep me playing well after my prescribed bed time.

@@grogpod_roguelike_podcast you're welcome! There's a lot more good stuff coming for people that enjoy traditional RLs, both on the free/open-source front as well as the premium Steam stuff :)

So question, is the 100th or 101st game going to also be a 'non-steam' game; or at least a pair of games related to each other with one on Steam, one not?

@grogpod_roguelike_podcast 3 месяца назад

The joke response would be 1980 Rogue (non-steam) and Rogue-FP (steam), but I don't think our recording schedule is set that far in advance yet lol

@grogpod_roguelike_podcast eh. Rogue sort of has its 'Epyx' release now. You'd be better off going with Brogue.
