Crawl Stone Soup - V0.8 Released

by Skavenhorde, 2011-05-11 14:26:15

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup has reached version 0.8. For those of you who may not know Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a variant of the Roguelike Linley's Dungeon Crawl. One of Stone Soup's major difference between Linley's is the use of tilesets instead of ASCII graphics.

There have been a quite a few changes to the game. Some of the changes include new gods, monsters, races, spells, a new game mode, items, a host of fixes and many tweaks. Here are a few of the highlights for this update:

0.8 Highlights

--------------

* New god: Ashenzari, god of divinations.

* New species: Felids, sentient cats.

* New spells: Malign Gateway, Tornado, Leda's Liquefaction, Summon Dragon, Summon Hydra, Darkness.

* Removed spells: Bone Shards, Tame Beasts, Portal, Alter Self, Extension.

* Split Enchantments into Hexes (harm foes) and Charms (self-buffs).

* Replaced Selective Amnesia spell with scroll and book destruction.

* Improved heavy armour.

* Makhleb and the Shining One are no longer available as starting gods.

* Shortened the Elven Halls.

All of those changes are great, but if you play a summoner like I do from time to time then you'll pleased to know that they have added a summon dragon and hydra spell. I personally can't wait to give those a try provided I can keep my character alive long enough to get those spells.

A big thanks goes out to Sir James for posting about it in our forums.
