Ascii Dreams is a developer blog from the author of Unangband which is regularly updated and also features a good amount of articles and insight into the twisted world of roguelike game development.

From the website:

Spent too much time killing letters and collecting punctuation? Ever gone to sleep and seen ASCII in front of your eyes? This is the story of one developer pulling the levers behind the curtains, building the game he wants to play, and telling you like it is.

Also a new version of Unangband 0.6.2-wip6a is available.

If you haven’t checked out the great weekely web column @Play over at Game Set Watch before, now is a great time to do so. It features some excellent indepth looks at gameplay, history, individual roguelikes and all things relating to the genre. Great stuff.

‘@ Play’ is a bi-weekly column by John Harris which discusses the history, present and future of the Roguelike dungeon exploring genre.

Seeking to provide more content to our information-hungry visitors, I have opened positions for new editors into roguetemple!

Let’s welcome our new authors, I hope you make the best use of this communication media!

Also, if you are interested and you think you could contribute informing people about news on the roguelike genre, feel free to email me about it.

Announcing the public release of a new website for the roguelike
community, “Temple of the Roguelike”.

This new website will hopefully serve as a communication media for
both newbies and hardcore roguelike players and developers. The main
goal is to make roguelike games much more accesible to the internet
world, and it includes the following sections:

* Articles
* Roguelike Games Directory
* Interviews
* Previews and Reviews
* News
* Links
* The roguelike world map

The roguelike community now also has access to the “Temple of the
Roguelike Forums”, a web-based forum in which you can hang around and
discuss about roguelikes, popular and newborn, present, past and
future. Thereby you can also post suggestions to make the Roguelike
temple better!

The first interview is coming out real soon (it is already appointed).
