SRogue - a Roguelike Game
Chatbots - Eliza - Alice
I found some nice Eliza-Chatbots, which can also use german-language. One of them is Alicebot, which got the Loebner Prize two times. I use PyAIML, located in the Downloads/interpreters-section with a german aiml file. There is also some interessting, german master-work, which describes how Eliza and Alicebot works.
Recently I found this page, where you can play serveral old games (Super Mario Bros 1-3, Bubble Bobble, ...) in the Web-Browser.
@Games: Diablo and Nethack
I'm current playing ToME (see Screenshots), a rogue-like game with ASCII-graphic (a graphical version is also available). ToME is an advancement of Angband, which itself is the predecessor of Diablo, but has a deeper gameplay (e.g. you must take food after several turns or you die slowly) . Moreover, there exists a nice mobile version, called Dweller, which can be played on almost any mobile phone. Another interessting and more known game is nethack. Falconeye is some graphical nethack-version.
@Games: craft a Warcraft clone
I recently added some features into an very old Warcraft Unix* clone called craft (a short description of the game can be found here). The features includes:
- save game
- load game
- Optimization for 800 by 600 dots resolution, instead of 14??? by 10???.
The original sources with automake can be found under craft_3.5.orig.tar.gz. The patch for the new features can be found here. Use this patch AFTER applying all Debian patches. I'm not responsible to any damage which might occure with this patch.
NOTE: There seems to be no maintenance neither from the original author Uwe Beyer nor from Falk Hueffner.
There exists several other Warcraft clones. One of the famous is Wargus, which is build on the top of Stratagus (see also wikipedia).
