Rogue-Like (work in progress)
« on: September 07, 2019, 09:26:57 am »
Having a little free time once more, I decided to play around with one of those old game concepts from ages lost, and toss my hat into the ring with trying to create a "Rogue-like" game.  (You can watch this poor fellow try out the game for the first time in a video here:
OR, you can have fun and test out this timeless classic yourself with a modern emulator here: https://www.myabandonware.com/game/rogue-4n/play-4n )

So, here's my little start to the game, which generates us a rogue-like map and lets us roam our hero around it and explore:
Code: QB64: [Select]
  1. TYPE Light_Type
  2.     Name AS STRING * 20
  3.     Reach AS INTEGER
  4.     Left AS INTEGER
  5.  
  6. TYPE Hero_Type
  7.     X AS INTEGER
  8.     Y AS INTEGER
  9.     HP AS INTEGER
  10.     Level AS INTEGER
  11.     EXP_Earned AS LONG
  12.     EXP_Needed AS LONG
  13.     Light AS Light_Type
  14.  
  15. DIM SHARED Hero AS Hero_Type
  16. DIM SHARED Level AS INTEGER: Level = 1
  17.  
  18.  
  19. SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(800, 600, 32)
  20. REDIM SHARED MapArray(0, 0) AS _BYTE
  21.  
  22. Init
  23. CreateMap 99, 74, 10, 1
  24.     CLS
  25.     DrawMap
  26.     _DISPLAY
  27.     GetInput
  28.  
  29. SUB Init
  30.     Hero.HP = 10
  31.     Hero.Level = 1
  32.     Hero.EXP_Earned = 0
  33.     Hero.EXP_Needed = 1000
  34.     Hero.Light.Name = "Magic Candle"
  35.     Hero.Light.Reach = 2
  36.     Hero.Light.Left = -1 'infinite

I'm actually rather happy with what I've got here so far, and I really like the illumination code, which can be used to simulate various light sources for us.  A candle has a minor glow, only illuminating the ground close to our hero, whereas a torch might illuminate further, and a lantern even more than that...

Navigation/Key commands
For testing purposes, at this point, you can alter your light's range manually with the "+" and "-" keys. 
Arrow keys move your hero across the screen.
The "<" key allows you to go down stairs to the next level. 



Test it out, see what you think of things as they currently exist, and let me know how it performs on your machine/OS.  The illumination routine isn't half as efficient as it could be, as it recursively calls itself over and over and repeats lighting checks on the same areas multiple times, but I don't think it should really be that big an issue since a lightsource should never be larger than 5 or 6 tiles.  If I was going to have the light extend dozens of tiles, I'd work on fixing the repetitive recursive calls, but in this case it seems minor enough to keep it simple as it is.  On my machine, it runs perfectly fine with no issue, but if it lags or uses too much CPU power on somebody else's, I'll redo it with a little better logic checking.

Try it out, tell me what you think, and if there's any issues with navigation, illumination, or such, let me know and I'll work on correcting it before I move on and start adding monsters, gear, and everything else into the game one step at a time.

Hi Steve! Nice.. The only issue is that it lags. Seems like it wait for a bit to respond to keys.

Hi Steve! Nice.. The only issue is that it lags. Seems like it wait for a bit to respond to keys.

I was a little worried that it might on lower-end systems. 

Quick question: Is the lag in general, or when you've got a strong light illuminating your surroundings?  The game should be one which operates on a "turn-based" style, where nothing changes or happens, until the player makes a keypress.  It's not a "real-time" game, where monsters and such will move independently and the game progresses consistantly; instead it only updates with each keystroke from the player.  (And even then, only from registered keystrokes.  Arrow keys to move, Space to wait and skip a turn, "<" to go down stairs... Other keys for future functionality...)

Are you seeing a general sluggishness to respond, with high CPU usage (such as the light calling itself over and over in an unregulated loop), or is it just the style which might not be what you were expecting?  I know a lot of you younger folks have probably never been exposed to Rogue (after all, it was a 1980 text game which ran on consoles/terminals), and I think the movement seems fairly faithful on my system, but I'm still worried there might be an issue in there somewhere for folks with older machines.  ;)

Ok. Got it. No, no high cpu usage.

Plays pretty smooth for me, looks a lot like ye old ROGUE games. Which I have to admit I always found them particularly hard with the lack of a visible interface and usually a lack of instructions\information on game play.

I find the lighting trick rather cool, lots of possibilities with that one; blindness, candle, torch, ect...

The mapping always interested me. I was once told, by a guy who made probably my fave roguish type game ever 'Reaping the Dungeon', that he generated some 'rooms' then had a 'worm' make tunnels connecting them. Alas I have tried many a time to get that to work and just never really succeed, the maps are either big messes of tunnels everywhere or half the rooms can never be reached. couldn't get a good balance.

I've done a lot of work on my own Reaping clone, thats when I asked Galleon about being able to change the BIOS font and he set that up for me way back when. But never was happy with the maps I was able to generate, and that always held me back from finishing it.

Anyway it looks really awesome and nostalgic! 
Granted after becoming radioactive I only have a half-life!

The lighting trick is also going to become an “awareness trick”.  Using the same behavior as the light, with the monsters, I’ll be able to give the monsters a “sight” and “hearing” range.  The way I envision it, something like a bat will have almost 0 sight but a decent hearing range, so sneaking might allow you to bypass it without being found, whereas an invisibility potion would be useless.  A different creature might have a high visibility, but be deaf... 

Just as we produce a light around us, monsters should have an awareness range around them.  At least, that’s my intention for how things should work...  ;)

wow that lighting system is really slow! I played around with it a bit and when you get up near 10-11 distance it darn near locks. no super site abilities I guess! which makes me wonder just how well the performance will hold up if your using something similar for awareness, 2 or 3 creatures and that would be it.

Though looking at the Illuminate code I don't see anything directly that makes it look slow unless its all the recursion? even at 10 should only be checking what, 220-221 spaces?

anyways, I did add a little info area, very very basic.
Code: QB64: [Select]
  1. SUB Display_Info_Area
  2.  LOCATE 1, 1: PRINT "ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿"
  3.  FOR i%% = 0 TO 2
  4.   LOCATE 2 + i%%, 1: PRINT "³"; TAB(94); "³"
  5.  NEXT i%%
  6.  LOCATE 2 + i%%, 1: PRINT "ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ"
  7.  LOCATE 2, 2: PRINT "HP:"; Hero.HP; TAB(12); "Map X:"; Hero.X; TAB(24); "Map Y:"; Hero.Y; TAB(36); "Level:"; Hero.Level;
  8.  PRINT TAB(46); "Candle Power:"; Hero.Light.Reach; TAB(62); "Aflliction:";
  9.  LOCATE 3, 2: PRINT "Load:"; TAB(15); "Right Hand:"; TAB(35); "Left Hand:"
  10.  
kept it all text based but the border might be better as a line statement or something. Granted the map can go into the area, but it was just an idea.

It might be on your list but did you see this code?
Code: QB64: [Select]
  1.    CASE 60 ' "<" key
  2.     Level = Level + 1
  3.     IF MapArray(Hero.X, Hero.Y) AND 8 THEN CreateMap 99, 74, 10, Level
  4.  
so every time the player hits the "<" key level increases! even if there is no 'ladder' there.

I agree with all you said here 100%.  The lag generated with higher values is completely beyond my expectations, and I honestly don't see why it's as extreme as it is.  And, I think you're right with it either limiting the creatures to a minute awareness range, or else becoming an anchor on the program which will lag it to the point of insanity...

To correct the issue, I've replaced it with this little set of code:

Code: QB64: [Select]
  1. TYPE Damage_Type
  2.     Low AS INTEGER

Now I don't just have an illumination routine; I have a full fledged pathfinding routine in place to make use of later.  Since I can map all points distance from the character, all I need to do is check to see if the tile a mob is on  has a distance value <= their awareness levels....  If so, all I have to do is check the tiles around them and move them to the tile with the next lowest value so they can approach the hero, one menacing step at a time.

Testing this, we can move our lightsource up to a whopping 25 tiles (NUKE!!) and still move around without any lag or issues with gamplay.  (Higher light values probably work just as well, but I didn't bother to test beyond 25.) 

I think the lag from illumination issue has probably been solved for good with this change, and I hope all it'll need is a slight tweak or so, so that it'll work for mob awareness levels and such as well.

Yep, much more 'stable' in performance. I was going to ask if you were going to use a path finding routine to allow the creatures to follow or intercept the player, guess there is my answer. Looking really good.
Granted after becoming radioactive I only have a half-life!

I think this is a much better way for everything to behave, and by using the + key to set your lightsource to an insane level now, you can see how the monster awareness is going to work.  If a bat has a hearing rating of 10, and you boost your lightsource up to a 10, you can see how close you'd have to get to the creature for it to notice and react to your hero.  ;)



Unless somebody sees an issue with something at this point in time, it seems as if it's about time to start adding a few random monsters into the game and then work on the basics of combat, experience, and leveling up.  :)

The game now generates monsters for us and places them randomly on the map so we can wander around and ....  do nothing at this point... with them.

Play around with the lightsource a little, and you can really see how much it'll affect game play for us in the future, once things start coming all together.  The monsters are there all the time (unless you defeat them, which is impossible at the moment with no combat implemented yet), but you can now move around and see how they pop on and off our screen, as they come into and out of our light's range.  I have a feeling, strong light sources might end up becoming a treasured resource in this game -- after all, the sooner you see a monster, the sooner you can react to it.  (Shoot it with a bow from a range; zap it with magic from a distance...  If you can't see it, you're just shooting blindly into the dark!)

Currently, all monsters appear as a red question mark on the map, but that's intentional.  You're going to need to encounter and fight a monster at least once, before YOU get to assign the color and symbol you want to use to represent it on your map.  The idea I have here is that the more you progress, and the more you explore in the dungeon, the less you encounter those mysterious and dreaded question marks -- and it allows you to create a custom symbol set for each game, so you can create one which seems familiar, comfortable, and easy to remember/interact with for YOU.

Progress seems to be coming along rather nicely to this point.  Now I just need to add the very basics of combat to the game, and then I'll have the "core" of my rogue-like set, where all I'll do from that point on is flesh it out with extra weapons/armor/gear/minor mechanics...

Our monsters are now detecting the hero and responding to him.  At the moment, they do nothing but move up and stand close enough to the hero to attack him, and they do absolutely nothing else...  After all, I still haven't added any actual combat routines in the game yet!  :P

Currently monsters will stack on top of each other, as they're completely unaware of each other's presence, but I plan on correcting that with the next update.  Movement should be limited to open tiles only; not ones where another creature is currently standing up; but I'm happy with what I've got here so far.  From what I can tell (sans combat), monster movement seems very similar to what we used to see in the actual game Rogue, waaay back in the day.  I still remember being beat up and almost dying, and then having to run backwards to take time to heal, all while hoping I didn't run into a second monster while the first one was still right on my heels....

:D

And the monsters now block each other and the hero's movement.  (As well as the hero blocking the monster's movement.)  At this point, there's still no combat, but you can have fun challenging yourself to a simple little game of, "How many levels can I run through before the monsters catch me and trap me in a corner...)  :P

To still be coming in at less than 500 lines total, I'm quite impressed with what all this little code is actually doing so far.  It's got lighting, navigation, trivial monster AI, random level generation, and basic collision detection.  Basic combat should be the next element I add into the game, so expect to see us being able to actually kill those mysterious monsters soon(tm)!  (Or be killed by them...)

The code has doubled in size, but that's because I plugged in my text frame library and am using it to wordwrap/justify/scroll text on the screen for me, without interfering with the rest of the program.  A lot of the library I can strip out later, as I don't think I'll need to be able to move/hide/restore frames, or anything of that sort, in this program, so honestly things aren't half as complex as they might seem at first glance in the program now.  ;)

Hi Steve,

Getting interesting and the text frame library too, but text is kinda small for these old eyes.

I have allot of room on left or right of graphics area for large text areas, aren't most screen wider than high? Might be better use of screen area, just an idea. Maybe you prefer preserving retro look?
