Some gameplay from the original #kalawaum game, 1994 (via DOS-Box), on which #ruinsOfCalaworm is based on. #roguelike

My favorite dungeon crawlers! ⚔️🧙 What are yours? 😃 #Ishar2 #Kalawaum #DarkestDungeon #legendOfGrimrock

Quasimorph, 0.7.2 IS OUT! Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday Quasimorph, 0.7.2 IS OUT! #ruinsOfCalaworm is a streamlined turn-based Dungeon Crawler, where you explore ancient Ruins and bump into Witches and Eldritch Horrors (based on an obscure 90s german cult game called "Die Gemäuer von #Kalawaum").

#ruinsOfCalaworm is a streamlined turn-based #dungeonCrawler, where you explore ancient Ruins and bump into Witches and Eldritch Horrors (based on early 90s german cult game "Die Gemäuer von #Kalawaum"). No builds, few stats - just you and the Dungeon.

showEquippedWeaponOnPlayerChar-system is a WRAP! 😌 Quite happy how it turned out; it's such a huge boost in immersion! Here are the final two items: the Blunderbuss, and the Alien Energy Coil (strongest weapon in the game): #ruinsOfCalaworm #dungeonCrawler #kalawaum

Woah, what's happening? 🤯😵 Thank you to whomever downloaded the demo of #ruinsOfCalaworm today. Means a lot to me, hope you find something in there you like! 🥹❤️ #dungeonCrawler #kalawaum

New #ruinsOfCalaworm Demo hitting itch.io on December 8th.ü 👻❤️💀 #roguelike #indiegame #kalawaum

Tom Jensen Built editor and game logic simultaneously, they use the same framework. Classic #Kalawaum's selling point was handcrafted maps, so Editor was a must, and I wanted a tool to just place stuff and test on the fly. Later I also doubled down on procGen potential.☺️ More early shots:

#ruinsOfCalaworm I will always remember as the thing that helped me keep my sanity during the pandemic (started out 2020), and which drove me insane after. 🥹#gameDev #roguelike #kalawaum How it started, how it's going:

You can now find Treasure Chests in #ruinsOfCalaworm. They are very rare, and always hidden in procedurally generated alcoves behind Secret Walls. They drop 2 random Items. 👀 #roguelike #kalawaum

Wishlist Rogue, Rogue, Baby! 🍼 Ember | Little streaming bean Thanks! :-) My game has a more ancient legacy than classic Rogue; it kinda scratches that itch, but it's closer to 1979's DUNGEON! for Commodore PET (with more feature creep😅). ACTUALLY it's based on an obscure early 90s gem called #Kalawaum, tho (barely known outside Germany).

Curious, did you download and play the Demo of #ruinsOfCalaworm? Did you beat it? Not your kind of game (that's fine, actually ☺️)? Actually I know one person powering through several times - then again, they also grew up with original #Kalawaum, that inspired this one ...

Hooded Horse #TurnBasedThursday - Turn-Based Game Showcases Hello Hooded Horse, how're u doing? 🤗 #ruinsOfCalaworm is a tribute to 90s german cult #roguelike #Kalawaum. Despite QoL concessions, gameplay remains very oldschool. Completed a milestone, with Demo released after major overhaul. Now figuring out, where to go from here ...

u/Avatar-of-Chaos This. 🤣 The mechanic is legacy from classic #Kalawaum, but those were the 90s ... Teleport Traps will still surprise you the first time around, though, and warning is exclusive for that particular run, so no reason to be extra cruel. I don't consider Players my enemy. ❤️🤗

#ruinsOfCalaworm Demo is coming TODAY to itch.io. I am currently at my daytime job, but will get to it after I'm home. Should be online in the early evening hours (CET). Thanks for your patience. 👻❤️💀 #roguelike #kalawaum #indiegame The game's page: erdbeerscherge.itch.io/ruins-of-calaw…

Tim Freut mich, danke! 🤗☺️ In den nächsten Monaten werde ich immer mal wieder ein paar Artikel online stellen, wo ich einige Aspekte und Features von #ruinsOfCalaworm beleuchte. Und evtl. auch mal was zum Urvater #Kalawaum (das ja ein rein deutsches #roguelike-Phänomen war).

But is it a roguelike? 👻❤️💀 #ruinsOfCalaworm #gameDev #indieDev #roguelike #kalawaum erdbeerscherge.itch.io/ruins-of-calaw…

XSGames (by Frank Eno) Thanks for hosting! ❤️🙏 Name's Alexander from Germany, hobby #gameDev working on #ruinsOfCalaworm, rework of obscure german cult #roguelike #Kalawaum, from early 90s. Streamlined and concise mechanics, less math, more dungeon crawling. Cute Pixelart meets Lovecraft'ian horror.
