The Grognard Update (v0.12) - MAC/LINUX SUPPORT DIAGONALS

HOLY CATS, WE'RE LEAVING EARLY ACCESS NEXT MONTH. This month it's all about playing the way you want to play. That means Mac and Linux support, tools to prevent stupid deaths, keyboard examine, ASCII mode, and optional 8-way movement.
The final class has been added as well: Berserker. With the highest starting strength of all the disguises and an ENRAGE spell, you'll surely wreak havoc on the hotel. That brings us to 12 classes and 19 achievements to collect!

Diagonal movement


Four way movement has always been helpful for players without numpad. But sometimes it just doesn't feel like a roguelike without diagonals. Adding optional 8-way movement to Golden Krone Hotel affects A LOT. Expect the game to feel different, but hopefully still balanced. It's now easier to dance around lone enemies and it's possible to dodge light beams. But remember it's also easier to get surrounded and magic becomes 8-directional too.

ASCII Mode


ASCII can look cool as hell. It's often easier to understand what's going on too. So here it is. There's a Muted Palette option that almost turns the game greyscale (the main exception being hints of red). This an excellent option if you want to crank up the horror aesthetic.

Grognard Mode


If you really want to go old school, there's GROGNARD Mode. This flips a bunch of options simultaneously to make the game look and feel more like a classic roguelike. You'll get ASCII, diagonal movement, and a bunch of display effects turned off (like animation, damage numbers, bounciness, etc.).
But feel free to play with those on if you prefer! It's quite fun playing a little bouncy @.

Changelog:


  • Mac and Linux now supported. Please let me know if you have any problems.
  • Optional diagonal movement added
  • ASCII mode added
  • Bump animation added
  • You can now Examine with keyboard (press V) and hovering over tiles also displays their name
  • Added a "Confirm dangerous moves" option. If you die to sunlight a lot, this might help
  • Berserker class added
  • Shapeshifter now turns into a wolf whenever in moonlight
  • Spiridus and Moroi toned down a bit. Moroi range reduced
  • Options menu reorganized and several new options added
  • Sound play when selecting options
  • Added highlighted text to tutorial to make it easier to understand
  • Fixed a very weird bug with ice/stairs that created ghost enemies that could be killed infinitely
  • Fixed a crash when playing the game outside of the Steam client
  • Fixed an issue with the revolver cancellation not clearing selected tiles
  • Fixed an issue with certain attack types being displayed
  • Fixed an issue with rebinding ESCAPE/ENTER
  • Fixed the display of 1HP in morgue files
  • Fixed an issue with ring display in morgue files
  • Fixed an issue with resting while poisoned/burning
Since the game is wrapping up, please let me know of any last minute ideas on balance/polish. Big changes are probably not making it in, but there's still a month to fine tune things. And I'm super serious about the price increase this time (I wanted one last opportunity for Mac/Linux players to buy at $5).

  • Available DLCs

  • Golden Krone Hotel is a gothic horror roguelike. Fight vampires with sunlight or become a vampire yourself and sneak in the shadows.

    Your mission


    You play as Sorina Arobase, a human general made famous for hunting vampires. You're on a mission of revenge to kill Fane, the exiled vampire prince. Armed with your sword, revolver, and spell book, you must battle hordes of blood sucking foes. But first you'll be picking one of 10 disguises that will help you on your journey.

    Features


    • It's a roguelike, really! Turn-based combat, permadeath, and tough as nails gameplay
    • Fully dynamic lighting. Use sunlight as a weapon or snuff out torches to conceal yourself
    • A groundbreaking potion identification system that encourages risk taking
    • Each run requires you to play as both human and vampire, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Humans are frail spellcasters. Vampires are brawlers with super human speed and strength.
    • Leaderboard and shareable morgue files

    Content


    • 10 floors, 9 branches, and 6 bosses
    • Dozens of unique monsters
    • 40 potions
    • 20 spells
    • 10 classes

    Game length

    Golden Krone Hotel is what's known as a coffee-break roguelike. A pickup and play style allows for short sessions and the save system lets you stop at any time. Winning runs take about 1-2 hours. Want a longer run? No problem! Just crank up the difficulty setting and attempt to clear all the optional branches.

    Amenities


    Traditional roguelikes are a ton of fun, but usually come with an alphabet-soup of commands that make them tedious and unintuitive. Golden Krone Hotel has a modern, streamlined interface:

    • A very small number of controls, all of which are rebindable
    • Completely playable with either mouse or keyboard
    • Keypress hints on all buttons to help you learn shortcuts
    • Tooltips on everything
    • No inventory management!
    • Items are picked up automatically and gear is auto-equipped

    All of which results in less downtime and faster gameplay.

    Before you buy....


    Please be aware that, being an Early Access title, Golden Krone Hotel is not finished! It's lacking some of the the content, balance, and polish that will be in the full release. If, however, you're willing to play a game that's still in development and has the occasional bug, then buckle up. It'll be a fun ride.
