Allure: Near-future roguelike game in very early and active development
This is an alpha release of Allure of the Stars, a near-future Sci-Fi roguelike and tactical squad game. The game is barely fun at this stage and not yet really Sci-Fi. See the wiki for design notes and contribute.
New in this release are experimental multiplayer modes and a lot of gameplay changes induced by the engine overhaul. Long term goals are high replayability and auto-balancing through procedural content generation and persistent content modification based on player behaviour.
The game is written using the LambdaHack roguelike game engine available at http://hackage.haskell.org/package/LambdaHack.

Readme for Allure-0.4.8
[back to package description]Allure of the Stars 
This is an alpha release of Allure of the Stars, a near-future Sci-Fi [roguelike] 2 and tactical squad game. Long-term goals are high replayability and auto-balancing through procedural content generation and persistent content modification based on player behaviour. The game is written in [Haskell] 1 using the [LambdaHack] 5 roguelike game engine.
Compilation and installation
The game is best compiled and installed via Cabal, which also takes care of all dependencies. The latest official version of the game can be downloaded automatically by Cabal from [Hackage] 4 as follows
cabal install Allure
For a newer version, install a matching LambdaHack library snapshot from a development branch, download the game source from [github] 3 and run 'cabal install' from the main directory.
Compatibility notes
The current code was tested with GHC 7.6, but should also work with other GHC versions (see file .travis.yml for GHC 7.4 commands).
If you are using the curses or vty frontends, numerical keypad may not work correctly depending on the versions of curses, terminfo and terminal emulators. Selecting heroes via number keys or SHIFT-keypad keys is disabled with curses, because CTRL-keypad for running does not work there, so the numbers produced by the keypad have to be used. With vty on xterm, CTRL-direction keys seem to work OK, but on rxvt they do not. Vi keys (ykuhlbjn) should work everywhere regardless. Gtk works fine, too.
