A fork of Laurence Brothers' epic roguelike

OMEGA

This is a roguelike game written by Laurence Brothers in 1987. It is, perhaps the best roguelike ever written, with a huge world, a variety of quests, many cool items and monsters, and plenty of wit, charm, and humour. The repository contains the original 0.8 version and the latter day fixes released as 0.90.4 by various authors on Usenet. This particular project is a conversion of this game from old school 1987 C to modern C++, with the primary goal being mostly entertainment. Code changes so far include general cleanup, const correctness and other things now essential that were unheard of in 1987, using stl mostly to replace homegrown linked list containers, and few UI improvements. No, the old saved games and omegarc are not compatible. Building omega requires zlib, ncurses, and cwiclo. A c++17 compiler is also required, such as gcc 7../configure && make install && omega Have fun!
