Bob the Hamster in the Crypt of Baconthulhu is almost ready for release on OUYA.
It is a matter for debate as to whether this is a roguelike game with an emphasis on maze-solving,or a maze-game with roguelike elements.
This game will be completely free. You can do optional in-app donations if you like it, but they do not unlock anything.

A roguelike puzzler starring a hamster? I think I'm in!
Expect a few donations from this guy =D
This definitely looks cool.

Take my MONEYS!!! Oh wait this is free :P carry on with the awesome :D
I am glad to see there is some interest in the game! :)
The basic story is this:
Bob the Hamster ate too much bacon at a picnic in the park, and was suddenly plunged into a mysterous crypt filled with monsters, and populated by robed cultists who worship He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Cooked-At-Less-Than-144-Degrees-Fahrenheit, or as he is also known, Baconthulhu, the evil yet crispy and delicious demon who lurks on the deepest floor of the crypt.

I loved Don't Eat Soap. I will give this a try for sure.
Everything is better with BACON!Quote:

Right now the game is essentially finished, I am just waiting on my music guy to finish one more track before I submit for OUYAproval.
In the mean time, here is a screenshot of the controls help screenAttachment 1244
Can't wait to give this game a try :) Looks pretty darn unique.
Tell that music guy to hurry up!! Need a new roguelike to play =]
I'm excited about Bob the hamster! Don't Eat Soap made me an instant fan!Quote:

So I don't know how long the music will take, so what better way to spend the time waiting than to create more enemy sprites!

SWEET!!! Way to make me want this more!!
After implementing:
* a new powerful weapon (and a fetch quest to get it)
* a new magical ability
* some new NPC dialog (with hints about how to win)
* some improvements to dungeon generation
* better display of fog-of-war
* Nifty little particle effects when you kill monsters
* Some super-secret debug/cheat tools
I decided do go ahead and submit the game without waiting for the "Good Ending" music.
I am sure the reviewers are swamped today, so maybe they won't get to it, but we can always hope!
Would really make my xmas if this game magically got accepted today :)
Been on a rogue-like binge on steam lately and this would give me a good reason to stay glued to my OUYA ;D
Check Again Dan, it is :)Quote:
