Fight monsters and find loot as you battle your way to the bottom of the dungeon! Play the game in your web browser, or download it for Windows or Linux at GitHub in the Releases section.
RuggRogue is a simple, complete roguelike inspired by the first part of the Rust Roguelike Tutorial. Despite this, it uses SDL2 directly (and Emscripten for the web port), without any game engine or roguelike helper libraries. The source code can be found at GitHub. Roguelike developers may also want to see the RuggRogue Source Code Guide; a 20-odd chapter technical web book about the development, ideas and code architecture of the game.
