Celebrate Roguelikes, October 3rd 2020

Celebrate the rich history and inspiring future of roguelikes
with streamed talks and more in our own custom-built
 roguelike social space!

I don't think I've ever mentioned my love of roguelike games here before. This dates back 40 years and my Sophmore year as a computer science major. The version I played was called "Hack" but as far as I can tell it was an early version of Rogue for the PC - back when Personal Computers were a novel concept!  I spent every hour I could spare in the computer lab playing Hack, and nearly flunked my classes that semester because of it. 

This October comes Roguelike Celebration, an online event with dozens of presentations about Roguelike games. Count me in!

The roguelike I am currently playing is a much simplified version called Shattered Pixel Dungeon, which is a relatively gentle introduction to a complex genre.
