On the topic of traditional roguelikes, Caves of Qud is getting its 1.0 release tomorrow. Been in development for over 15 years now, and it’s fantastic. Can’t recommend it enough. https://store.steampowered.com/app/333640/Caves_of_Qud/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/333640/Caves_of_Qud/

Thanks for this notice, I've been periodically checking for years waiting for a full release before allowing myself to dive in. :) Though with Path of Exile coming out Friday, it's a bad time to have a social life...

  > I've been periodically checking for years waiting for a full release before allowing myself to dive in. Huh? It's already released in full. You want development to stop? That would make no sense, and be contrary to the development of pretty much every other roguelike.

    >Huh? It's already released in full. Nah, 1.0 will add an actual ending to the main quest and then it'll be a full release.

    Please don't put words in my mouth. I am referring to the developer's own roadmap, which has been slowly ticking off boxes for years: https://www.cavesofqud.com/roadmap/ https://www.cavesofqud.com/roadmap/ Nobody is asking for development to stop. I've been waiting for a game that is, by the developer's own judgment, complete on a fundamental level.

Wow I thought it was going to be later next year. Been anxiously awaiting this before starting another play through. The writing for this game is just something special.

Will the 1.0 release include the switch over to the Godot engine?
