DS homebrew dev Immir has released a new version of his DS port of the roguelike game Angband. If you’ve ever tried out Nick McConnel’s DS Faangband, this is also worth checking out.

Angband is still a work in progress, hence the “beta” designation in the filename. Here’s a list of known issues as well as some stuff that were added recently:

Things done recently

Added a column of user buttons down left-side of screen, visible after holding shift for 1 second
Fixed stack overflows at end of game; you can now get info, dump record etc (Arrghh, my comp character got lost!)
Character creation buttons no longer stay around (buttons still buggy, though)
Fixed “loopy” mouse movement bug; character now moves directly to target location (modulo inherent bugs in current path-finding code)

Things being worked on

New pathfinding algorithm (A*)
Recent command history buttons (repeat older commands, drag to make a button from a history command etc…)
Automatic game (red) buttons a la O/FA
Improve editing/creation/deletion of user (blue) buttons
