Well, someone made a Roguelike version of Doom, and I gotta say that it's pretty freaking hard. Trying to just rush in guns a blazing will get you killed in an instant. The controls can be a bit wonky, but you can get than hang of it.
Anyone else know this game or has played it?

To be fair, I think you could make a Roguelike version of Animal Crossing and it'd be insanely difficult.

Download Roguelike, Complain about Difficulty.
That seems to happen too much on the internet. Not you in particular but I've seen it millions of times.

I remember trying to beat NetHack for like, 2 months straight before deciding it just wasn't worth it. Among the Roguelike games out right now, I've been playing FTL, which I don't think is nearly as stupidly bad as the others, although I have been cheated at the end a few times.

Make Doom Rogue-like? Well, I guess you could give him a brown leather jacket, and put like a white stripe or something on his green hood. Have him talk with some southern slang, like "y'all" but have him still use the Latverian accent for comedy purposes. The armor can already fly and provides super strength, and I think it would negate the "stealing" touch power, but maybe he could have like a build in gadget thingy that does that? Doesn't sound beyond the possibility for Doom. Only other thing I could think of is to make him a girl too.
Doom is already pretty powerful, may I ask what the purpose of making him Rougelike is?

Hehe, it was less of a complaint and more of a compliment.

I've tried it and I agree that it's very hard, but it's pretty fun. I kinda wish they made a pro game like this with all the monsters and stuff. Also, do you guys play with a tileset or do you use the ASCII stuff? Download Roguelike, Complain about Difficulty. That seems to happen too much on the internet. Not you in particular but I've seen it millions of times. I don't think it's really complaints. Juts an observation (see also: NetHack).

I don't think it's really complaints. Juts an observation (see also: NetHack). Pretty much. I more or less consider it a plus if the game can be a big challenge. If a game is too easy I often end up losing interest and sometimes getting bored to the point of not bothering to finish it. One gripe I got with the game though is when you pick up the invulnerability power up the screen turns to white. I can still navigate through the map, but it hurts my eyes.

Anyway, after playing around with the game, I think that the best class for the job is the Scout. While the Marine can get better HP early on, the Scout can learn intuition from the start. Knowing where enemies are helps a whole lot in this game, considering that most of them have long range attacks.

Heh, had the same idea.
