Rogue: Exploring the Dungeons of Doom (1980) FOSS gaming on Linux!

Let's play Rogue, the classic text-based dungeon-crawler that spawned the "roguelike" genre, on Golden Drake Linux! ✨ This is our first entry in a new video series focused on games that are FOSS (free and open source software), starting with a special emphasis on text-based/terminal-based games. Please share your thoughts on Rogue (or roguelikes in general) along with your recommendations for games and other software we should highlight in the future!

Love all the sound effects and voice changing!

[@GoldenDrakeStudios]

Thank you! 😁

[@snek7915]

very comfy video, glad to have found it! I especially liked how approachable you made it with the quick explanations of things.
one piece of feedback, is to maybe tune the music down a bit. together with the reverb it made it pretty hard to make out words at certain points :p

[@GoldenDrakeStudios]

Thank you for the compliments and helpful advice! 😊 Also, Happy Year of the Snake! 🐍

I only recognized some Final Fantasy music.

[@GoldenDrakeStudios]

That's right! All of this video's background music is from the original Final Fantasy, including two hard rock versions that were performed by the composer Nobuo Uematsu's former band, The Black Mages: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Mages
