Programing is going well. I have stats and collision working. I have monsters and npcs. The npc code uses the same variables as the monsters. The only difference is there is a hostile variable so even friendly npcs can become hostile or become vampires.
The floor tiles are now dots instead of # characters. This makes the npcs more distinguishable.

Oh this looks good, what type of random generator are you using for it?

The random level creation and random movement is pure random. There is a random var that chooses 1 of 4 directions to go next. This is used when placing floor tiles and npc movement. So like up then right then down then down again or something like that. The tile generator overlaps itself creating rooms and hallways.

Cool stuff! It feels good to finish a project, and it's great to have something at the end to show to others. Short games are good games :)

I have made a lot of progress on the new level design. There are lands now. Before there was just a cave like level, now I have places like forests, swamps, and towns.

Yeah its going well, there are environment conditions like rain, snow, fog and even magic. They are represented by color variations and its fun.

Still making good progress, i had to remake the basic level design. So i basically started making the whole game over again. But it will have all the previously mentioned features. It loads so much faster now and gameplay is instant.

this looks cool, reminds me of the old mac game 'moria' that i used to play on my little box mac with a 9inch black n white screen, so nostalgic. r u gonna add chests and an inventory? the nav system we used in sc back in the day used text maps in code and would display graphics on screen per square but i still like the text as graphics, its a good place to start
