DoomRL 0.9.9.2 RELEASED!
Fri, 11 Feb 2011 17:56:32 GMT
DoomRL 0.9.9.2 has been released!
The new version fixes all known bugs, adds a lot of flavor, and expands the game with not yet seen content! A new animation system has been introduced, you can play around with Assemblies, and several of the special levels became truly special!
Grab it while it's hot on the DoomRL website! Both Windows and Linux 32-bit versions are available – Linux 64-bit and hopefully a Mac OS X version will come soon!
ChaosForge is growing! I'd like to use this moment to announce a lot tighter release schedule from now on – the first Beta of 0.9.9.3 should be available to Supporters no later than in one month, and the official 0.9.9.3 release is going to be no later than in 4 months. Please be sure to check out the ChaosForge treasury and if you think that ChaosForge games gave you something, then why not give something back :).
Most noticeable change in this release is the asynchronous animation system – many things happen in DoomRL at the same time, strongly reinforcing the dynamic feel of the game! This is a side effect of the concurrently developed graphics version, which a few of the Chaos crew are already testing.
Second major change, not immediately visible is the presence of Assemblies. Specific combinations of mods applied to an item may trigger an Assembly possibility – sometimes completely transforming an item into a more powerful version! Known Assemblies with their receipts are gathered in the player info screen – the names of the basic ones are already revealed.
Final major change are major changes to some of the special levels. There's even a presence of a semi-plot that binds three special levels together. Following that we have three new boss monsters, fighting which is truly no joke!
To celebrate the enhanced levels there are three DoomRL dedicated MIDI tracks for some of them, possible thanks to the artistic talent of Simon Volpert. Be sure to check out the forum thread for a lot better sounding MP3 renditions!
Minor changes include a completely new config system, new exotics and uniques, new config options and several tweaks and flavor enhancements!
Compatibility note: Player and Score files are compatible (and always will be), ini files are not, as there's a completely new configuration system.
