Date uploaded: February 8, 2008
Features:
To do:
Fixed bugs:
- Displaying a monster's name immediately after loading the game now works
properly.
- Monsters can now be generated with gloves
- PROBABLE: The inventory screen should no longer crash when you press escape
at any time.
- PROBABLE: The game should no longer freeze upon entering a level.
Known bugs:
- The player will occasionally lose one hitpoint.
- On rare occasions, the game will crash when you're walking around. I've
only experienced this on the lower levels, and am not sure of the cause. [FIXED:
Version 0.3.0 corrects this problem]
- Creatures will sometimes run into walls if they cannot see the player. This
will be fixed when the speed system is overhauled in v0.4.1.

Version 0.2.7
Date uploaded: February 8, 2008
Features:
- Pressing 'p' will bring up a list of the last few messages that you received.
- You are now informed exactly what skill was increased when you level up.
- Fog of war is now an option, basically, if you hit 'F', you'll remember the location of monsters and items (even if they move away from that spot)
- There is now an option (enabled by default) to use an inventory management system like that of ADOM. This means that there are no more wear and wield commands, since everything is done from the equipment screen. It is toggled with the 'A' key.
To do:
- Fix the bugs that are present
Fixed bugs:
- Pressing the escape key while in the equipment screen no longer crashes the game
- Logs are no longer treated as headgear
Known bugs:
- When you load a saved game, the first display of any monster's name is blank.
After that, the display functions correctly. [FIXED: Version 0.2.8 corrects this problem]
- The player will occasionally lose one hitpoint.
- On rare occasions, the game will crash when you're walking around. I've
only experienced this on the lower levels, and am not sure of the cause. [FIXED:
Version 0.3.0 corrects this problem]
- The game has been known to freeze when entering a level; this is likely a problem with the random dungeon generator. [PROBABLY FIXED: Version 0.2.8 corrects this problem]
- Creatures will sometimes run into walls if they cannot see the player. This will be fixed when the speed system is overhauled in v0.4.1.
Notes:
- The readme file has been updated with the new features and commands; it also describes some aspects of the game that I forgot to mention earlier (such as the armor diagrams on the right side of the screen).

9. This only happened once, and I have no idea why it happened. [FIXED: Version
0.3.0 corrects this problem]
- If you load a saved game, the game will treat the boss as any other monster,
and the ending screen will not be displayed. This will be fixed by the next
version. [FIXED: Version 0.2.6 saves the boss monster correctly]

Date uploaded: October 10, 2007

- To switch the items in your hands, type 'x'. To switch your ready item and your right hand, type 'X'.
