Jake in the desert<p>I know I follow a lot of indie game makers here, but I have little idea of what engines any of of you use. Anybody here know about C++ compiling? <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@josemachete79" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>josemachete79</span></a></span> is working on building his own version of <a href="https://c.im/tags/Angband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Angband</span></a> from a cloned repo, and is running into issues compiling.</p><p>Any help anyone can offer would be much appreciated- I've played a test build or two of the game and it's working great except for these final compiling issues.

ThunderPerfectWitchcraftArcane Cache: Review to Glittering Light 2<br><br>A ASCII art game that breaks with quite some conventions in a wonderful way. Instead of moving an @ through a maze of lines, it feels like moving through a strange, mysterious world ... a game with a limited, set scope, where the atmosphere and the fundamental idea of the game are much more important than the balance or the gameplay ... a parabola on life itself.<br><br><a href="https://thunderperfectwitchcraft.org/arcane_cache/2025/02/06/glittering-light-2/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://thunderperfectwitchcraft.org/arcane_cache/2025/02/06/glittering-light-2/</a><br><br><a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/game" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#game</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/videogame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#videogame</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/indiegame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indiegame</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/gamedev" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/indiegamedev" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indiegamedev</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/undergroundgame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#undergroundgame</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/exploration" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exploration</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/2d" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2D</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/surreal" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#surreal</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/art" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/digitalart" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#digitalart</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/opensource" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#opensource</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/freesoftware" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freesoftware</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/freegame" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freegame</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/free" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#free</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/libre" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#libre</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/gaming" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gaming</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/browser" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#browser</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/indie" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indie</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/review" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#review</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/underground" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#underground</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/ascii" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ASCII</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/text" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#text</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/roguelike" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#roguelike</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/crawler" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crawler</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/rpg" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rpg</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/crawl" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crawl</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/rogue" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rogue</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/angband" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#angband</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/retro" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retro</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/text" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#text</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://outmo.de/tag/experimental" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#experimental</a>
Duncan Watson<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/@DarkestKale" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DarkestKale@mastodon.social</a><span> was talking about old school Diablo design and mentioned Angband and other roguelikes. It brought me back to the days where I commuted by rail to NYC and played Angband on my laptop. It was pretty cool, I think I still have muscle memory for spell casting.<br><br><br></span><a href="https://infosec.town/tags/angband" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#angband</a></p>
