I'm going to be working on porting this to windows, and I should have a build up tomorrow or the day after. If anybody can compile C++/SDL/SDL_mixer code for windows/mac, or if you know about the error 0xC0000005, please let me know.

I get the "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" at the fourth boss when I use a speed attack twice (Ubuntu x64).
Anyway, I completed the game. Very nice.
Music is awesome.

Any word on the Windows port?

Fascinating; first ncurses game I've ever played from Ludum Dare. A bit hard to follow, though, and there's a huge curve between the fourth and fifth bosses. Either way, not bad.

Cool to see a Linux only game - made me boot into Linux for the first time in a while, but if I suddenly become horribly addicted to Angband again it'll be your fault!! Found it too hard near the end but might replay. Anyone running Windows only could just grab the latest Ubuntu windows installer, it installs and uninstalls like a regular program, gives you Linux in a proper dual-boot setup and doesn't require you to partition your hard drive. Do it!!

Can't run this - it looks cool, but I don't have a Linux machine.

Nice game! But it is too easy to skill on weaker bosses...

Nice idea and mood. Had to manually kill your game after entering the credits though :-P

@Cipher
oldtopman: Do you have SDL-mixer installed? It's probably called "libsdlmixer" in your repos, but I compiled mine from source and am not sure on that.

@All the windows people
I'm terribly sorry, but I've don't everything I possibly can to try to get the game to compile on there, but to no avail.
