Albareth aims to be a roguelike/diablolike retro action roleplaying game. Like traditional roguelike games it features randomly generated dungeons, items and monsters. It differs from traditional ... [More] roguelikes in the way, that the game is not played turn-based but in realtime-action via an intuitive and modern interface (drag&drop, action bars, etc). It is based on conventional tile graphics and tries to maintain an overall retro/80ies look-and-feel, but at the same time features neat particle- and sound-effects using the Slick framework, which is based on LWJGL and makes use of OpenGL/OpenAL. The name "Albareth" losely references to the classic C64 action-rpg "Times of Lore". You can play the game via Java Webstart at: http://www.istarion.de [Less]
