DiabloRL Gets Naughty, Opens Its Source

By: Derek Yu

On: September 21st, 2007

Kornel Kisielewicz, creator of DoomRL and other popular Roguelikes, has made his DiabloRL open-source, saying:

As I don’t have as much time to develop DiabloRL as I would like, I decided to release it’s source code under the GPL licence. Also I created a project for DiabloRL on SourceForge, where a SVN repository is set up for DiabloRL.

As an added bonus, I add the most recent version (basically the one that has been on the DiabloRL beta tests forum) for download, and its source code too.

So, isn’t “Diablo Rogue-like” a recursive statement?

Are there mouse controls? It wouldn’t be Diablo without clicking.

@failrate: my thoughts exactly. Diablo already *is* a roguelike, or at least was inspired by one.

@crackers: click click click click ring click click click boots click click click click click sword click click click.

oh crap, did I just hear a ring drop… where the hell is it?
