CrecelleHack: A NetHack 5.0 variant. v1.5.0 now released!
What is it?
CrecelleHack is a 3.7-based 5.0-based variant by Antigulp, formerly of SpliceHack. It's been live for about a year now!
Why is it cool?
Part of the challenge I've undertaken with CrecelleHack is to implement weird, novel things that allow for emergent gameplay. As such, Crecelle contains the following:
- Dynamic terrain system
- Day/Night Cycle
- Potions that coat the floor, create clouds of gas, and frequently explode
- Remote triggering of traps with items
- Much more...
What’s new in the recent versions?
- Spreading mold: Mold can spread across the floor, be lit on fire, kill things that walk on it, and more.
- Dungeon biomes: The dungeon is split into random layers with distinct biomes. Biomes contain changes to dungeon generation as well as unique monsters and other mechanics.
- Dyeable items: You can dye your items different colors. It doesn't have any gameplay value, but it's fun.
- A lot of other things, most of which kill you.
