A procedurally generated roguelike for the Commodore 64, inspired by classic 80s dungeon crawlers.

I now have two versions of the game:
bcvi.d64 - uses the vi-style commands of old roguelikes (HJKL and diagonals).
bcwad.d64 - uses a more modern layout (WADX with diagonals)

Just discovered your rogue-like. Downloaded it and played it for 5 minutes.
Really enjoy the sound effects and that it is easy to move your player.
I don't think I'll kill the king, but as a rogue-like fan, I had to play your version.
Thanks so much for trying it! Honestly I actually haven't killed the king yet either! (at least not without the developer cheats I had in place!)
I added a Meatloaf short code to load your game directly from the internet into a C64 using a Meatloaf device.

Thank you! That's awesome and hadn't occurred to me - appreciate it!
