I thought saltw had finally kicked the bucket about... I want to say a year ago? The site wouldn't load for me. Glad to see it hasn't.

What a coincidence, I also want to learn Rust and want to make a roguelike with it. The difference being that I'm too lazy.
Really now? well, that's too bad. Have another pic, I've implemented FOV.

Crappy dungeon generation! Plus improved rendering no longer does it loop and set the glyph twice (once for the map, once for entities); instead, it goes through the map tiles, any entity that's at the position gets rendered instead of the map tile!

I got movement + blocking working, even allowed for setting the entities background colour to that of the tile it's standing on.

I've even got an idea to allow for tiles/entities that can possess random or animated glyphs.

If anyone is interested you can find my game here -> https://github.com/Thermatix/cyber_rogue/
 
It's still early days, just got character movement in, but my base idea is that it will be set in a Giant walled city-building like the Kowloon walled city, but with cyberpunk overtones, I'm going to be pulling visual styling from Cogmind.
 
Beyond that, don't have an idea for a story yet.

Ok, so I was watching a trailer for the latest Halloween film and I was wondering, is there a film, like Halloween or Friday the 13th where it starts out the same but as the killer does his thing it switches and the hunter becomes the hunted?

Ragnar, thank you, I am a BIG fan of battle angel alita (manga & anime, but mainly manga) and I had NO idea they were doing a live action thing of it, I'd give you a big bag of internet cookies if I could.
 
I just hope they do it justice.

Ok, so I am a massive fan of xianxia stories, and thought about trying my hand at it myself.
 
So far I just have some background stuff written up, tell me what you think:
 
This is a lengthy-ish read at 1640 words.
 
Also, I wish this forum had support for markdown :(​.

Sorry but personally 'The martian' > Interstellar.
 
It genuinely had me rooting for the main character the whole way through and I just felt like it was a better film, obviously this is subjective.
 
I don't actually remember what was the last film I saw... might have been 'sing'?
I enjoyed it, but then i'm easily amused.
 
Oh and whenever I watch 'Starship Troopers' I always enjoy it but only the first one, the other two are just kinda... blech by comparison.

Demon: the Fallen is pretty close, might actually be it.
 
sorry ragnar, it's 100% a novel or table top rpg.
 
Found it!
 
It's Infernum, and the name of the  house I was remembering was 'Lictat' not 'lysander'.
 
Thanks for your help any way!

Wow, I can't believe saltw is important enough to be attacked by any one?

Right, so I'm asking you lot as I can't recall something and it's bugging me like hell not to be able to remember. So, here's what I've got:
 
  • It's either an novel or a role playing game (like dnd)
  • it's set in hell
  • Demons are apart of houses
  • The houses are in conflict
  • The demons drink essence (which has something to do with human souls)
  • I think one of the houses is called 'lysander' or something like that
  • One of the locations are mountains, or a ring of mountains (I know, generic but I think it's a very prominent location)
  • There is magic (again, generic as hell, i know)
  • The houses fight over territory including forts (in the mountains)
I think that's all, if I remember anything more I'll add it.
 
P.S. I don't deny that this could be just something I randomly thought up and for some reason I think it's an actual novel/rpg.
RIP DoktorMartini
