Yes I have thought about already to make this game more like an RPG. I could interconnect the mazes into one world and give attributes to the character and more items. Maybe in the future I will start updating this. Yes I saw the news on the homepage - thank you guys.

Would be cool to see a rougelike dungeon game done like this.
Hopefully you caught the news on the homepage, one of the guys has now added Looter to the site: Looter

MIK - sorry about that. The file now should give access to all who use the link. I have also uploaded to the website like you suggested.

We have to request for access to download it... Looking at the 64 version on YouTube it looks neat and I can imagine how much quicker it would run on a Plus/4 which I'm sure makes it slightly better for it.
If you don't mind of course.., you could upload it directly to Plus/4 World and the guys will gladly add it to the database as soon as possible.
On the left hand side use: Upload a file to Plus/4 World staff Link: http://plus4world.powweb.com/features/SiteUploader#1

| New Plus/4 Maze Game - Looter
Hello - Last year I made a PETSCII maze game for the c64 called Looter. It can be seen on youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTVfDOk3xxc
I have never used the plus/4 before but was curious to see how portable c code can be. I was happy in that really all I needed to do was change some base addresses of char maps and color map. I tried it out and it works fine on the emulator (don't know about real hardware though). The game runs faster on the plus 4 as expected but I kept it that way to make it a more frantic game. It was an interesting experiment for me. The game is in PETSCII but hopefully some of you find it fun.
The download for plus/4 version is at: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxrxBhKJRIf2UVA1d3BVWmo5NHM&authuser=0
Currently it works only on the plus/4. The mazes themselves are stored in a raw format so they take up quite a lot of space. If I compressed them with a little work I could get this running on a Commodore 16.
