The true gamer dent.

My brother in Lorkhan you're tying to sell your opinions as facts in this thread. If you're so tired of touching dungeon walls then perhaps touching grass would be a better use of your time.

Noone is forcing you to play CHADderfall. If you think you got the wrong door, the skybaby-jail is 2 blocks down.

How did you think Microsoft linked computers with Windows licenses? Through magic and fairy dust?

Attempts to patch up Battlespire would fall flat I think. The game is broken beyond repair so might aswell rewrite it from scratch. The remake path would definitely be the way to go.

Like the other commenter said, making an engine port like DFUnity would be the best solution. I would honestly love to attempt to do this in something like Godot for educational purposes. The problem with that is that there's 99% chance it'd never be finished because making something like this without the original source code is a very daunting task. DFUnity took a lot of time to reach full release. OpenTESArena has been in developement for quite some time too. (First release was almost 10 years ago! Shoutout to afritz). Battlespire is a much smaller game but still a lot for 1 person to remake.

An alternative solution I've thought of is using DFUnity itself to recreate Battlespire as a mod inside DFUnity. Either that or forking DFUnity's source to create a Unity port of Battlespire. Would be much more achievable. Though Unity and C# sound much less appealing to me.

I think it's only a matter of time until some madman launches a project to remake Battlespire. Who knows, maybe that madman will be me someday. As jank and ridiculous this game is, I look back on it fondly.

You're absolutely right! I'm sorry for the confusion!

AI slopping a large C++ project? If you try we'll at least have something to laugh at.

Glad to finally see a CS clone made by someone who understands overall artism of Cruelty Squad and did not degrade the entire thing into a shitpost. Visuals seem less abstract yet they do convey that dystopian feel. Gun models look very good and that snake HUD is just awesome.

Definitely seeing lots of potential here.

song name?

Pad absolutely destroyed my left thumb from grinding on the dpad and overall made my hands very sore. Also motion inputs were very hard to do. Honestly fuck pads I hate them.

On stick I have no such problems, every motion is easy and consistent. I can play for as long as I want without discomfort.

Who'd know that using a controller for which fighting games were designed for would give me a better experience.

They'll do anything to this game except adding back the removed content. Exactly 0 people asked for this shit change, same with the new sounds. Meanwhile de_cache is STILL not done lmao.

There are new lootboxes and skins though! heckin poggers guys!

Because the USA is just a bunch of megacorps in a trenchcoat pretending to be a country.

you cant open this gate inside this underwater maze to the quest item because you didnt click the half burried skull on the other side of the dungeon inside a secret room on a ledge you can only levitate to

name one dungeon that does this

BasedLoser

dungeon crawling for 5 hours in a dungeon crawling game

the suck of 87'

If they ever fix the game I'd be stoked to play Roger.

I can hear the source collision sounds just by looking at this.

BasedLoser

That would be a duopoly, actually.

Monetizing anything related to modding is a shitty move. Modding is a community effort and in a healthy community, members share knowledge with one another.

If you wanna put up a paid guide, good luck, but leaking it day one would be more than justified.
