hah. well i guess that's one way to keep people playing. reminds me of those
"crackme" programs that people would release (or even just when people would
request their own software be cracked.. to counter it). ends up being more of
an author vs player thing.
ever played any of the "modern" rogue-likes, like Spelunky for 2d or perhaps
Eldritch (3d.. voxel style like Minecraft) ? i kinda gained renewed interest
in a backwards way because a few of my friends were playing those.
obviously 90% of the complexity is removed, but they still seem pretty dang
difficult ;)
