Roguelike Updates - FreedroidRPG, JADE, 3079

Tags: Freedroid

Larpingdude and Matthias would like you to know that FreedroidRPG made it to 0.15rc1. Here's some of the changes:

A new way of commanding your army of take-over droids is available: Multi-Bot Broadcast. Now you can issue one command to all of your droids that are on the same map level, making management of a large number of bots much simpler.
Loading a saved game saw a dramatic performance increase.
Armor rules were improved: armor gives you damage reduction. Hit/miss is handled separately.
The Network Mapper in-game program has been added: It displays all the enemies on the current level on the automap for a short time. Remember, you need to have the automap enabled and turned on (default key TAB) to use the skill!
Positional audio was implemented: now you can tell where and how far away that pesky droid is!
The level editor interface was improved, making the process of level creation much simpler and more intuitive: map labels, enemies and their relevant information can be placed, moved around and edited inside the editor and using the mouse, rather through a text file.
The user interface now properly handles various screen resolutions and aspect ratios (this is still a work-in-progress however).
Damage is now calculated and applied to NPCs only when the weapon actually lands, greatly improving the feeling of the slower weapons such as the sledgehammer.​
There's a creepy sounding bug fix for Thomas Biskup's JADE:

The major bug fix is about corpse rotting: Too many message were generated and required a (more) prompt. As a consequence the game experience was completely ruined as soon as the first corpse started to rot.​
And 3079, a "blocky action RPG" that namechecks Minecraft and Fallout 3, is at v2pre5.1:

The year is 3079.

Many planets are being discovered full of life. One newly discovered planet has been unusually stricken with constant war. You have been sent to this planet to find out why.

Think of 3079 as an independent, original and unique combination of Minecraft and Fallout 3 (both great games I recommend!).* 3079 is a sequel to my older games, 3059 and 3069.​
