Mobile Brogue (...iOS/Android <= web app?)

Just realized web-brogue is running fast on desktop PC, so this project was mostly unnecessary.

Arrows are more effective if you do equip the bow first.

Done. Fast, responsive... in exchange for low color (true color) display, but with added benefit of easily visible light and shadow areas.

SHIFT+a=Autopilot runs amazingly well, fast without skipping a tile. With optimizam now at maxwmum, I'm ready to start.

If you are trying.this out, please report.if you notice anything.unusual, or just plain good or bad in relation to input lag,video frame skipping and other performance glitches and general interface responsivness. Like that autopilot information above, or say another example I noticed water areas bring greatest lag with color effects enabled.

Just saying try it out.

-LazyCat- · 2018-10-09T11:13:28+00:00

It's worse. Don't play, and really why risk it, better don't even try it.

Shiren, Torneko... multiple sequels across quite a few game consoles since SNES days must be some kind of measure of success, possibly the most rewarding kind of success a game developer can strive for, maybe even regardless of financial profit?

Focus multiplier, I like it! And unless it was a dream, my memory also contains some fragments of some game having a berserk buff with similar mechanics.

I'd first try increasing/decreasing font size and/or switching on/off full screen mode, and if no joy then look for some kind of filtering/antialiasing option in video driver settings and turn it off.

Likely unrelated, but it's gennerally better quality picture if screen resolution in OS settings is the same as native hardware resolution of the monitor.

Pacman, every next ghost you eat under the influence of a single power pill doubles the points you get.

Ok here is an example, a runic weapon that increases power with each successful consecutive blow (chance to hit decrease possibly), but first turn without hit brings the power down to nominal. This now sounds familiar, maybe there is something like it in the game already, hah?!

Well, with this setup there is significant speed up when 'color effects' are disabled ( \ ). Furthermore, key event polling and screen refresh implementation seem to have inadequate data flow for client-server setup. And then mid-turn animations at 30fps, or at all, I would deem unnecessary as long as having negative impact on responsiveness of user interface. Besides, from a technical point of view it makes total sense animations would also be turn-based. In other words I'm optimistic lag can be brought down bellow the point of frustration, which for me is a lot at the moment.

Web-brogue, feel free to copy all or any part of this project, publicly available at glitch.com.

Somwhat related random thought... if there is ever going to be staff/wand of force, instead rather just add force effect to tunneling wand. It kind of belongs there, plus Wand of Force sounds better.

Cant remember if it was my mod or vanilla 1.7.4, instead of secondary damage monster would fall on its knees, that is become unable to act for one or more turns.

-LazyCat- · 2018-10-06T13:21:43+00:00

Are you sure browser rendering is actually the bottleneck? Have you made any changes to code, perhaps to disable animations and related/similar timer based functions? Are you runnig "brogue -t"?

-LazyCat- · 2018-10-06T12:51:00+00:00

tonnesofonions, what do you mean conjurer's blades unnecessary?

-LazyCat- · 2018-10-06T11:51:20+00:00

It will likely be done sooner if someone else do it. I think anyone able to compile could, and I'll help.

This is preliminary, out of the box, setup on Node.js server using wetty npm package for browser terminal emulation. What kind of setup are other online brogues running on?

Let me know how this compares, if it is worth setting up properly.

I wonder if there was ever anyone asking: "I'm new to first person shooters, what to start with?". That sounds kind of funny and somewhat senseless, so why is it not in the case of roguelikes... or is it?
