#Chitinous Crooks
## Play now
http://walsh9.github.io/7drl2015/
## Intro
**Chitinous Crooks** is a roguelike game made in seven days for the 2015 [7DRL Challenge](http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Seven_Day_Roguelike_Challenge). It's a very traditional roguelike in both gameplay and aesthetics. But you have no experience levels or items to help you, just a random set of god-granted abilities. Each dungeon level, you can use up to three of these, and every time you pass a level your health is restored and you gain additional abilities to choose from.
Special thanks goes to [rot.js](http://ondras.github.io/rot.js/hp/) and the [tutorial at the Coding Cookies blog](http://www.codingcookies.com/2013/04/01/building-a-roguelike-in-javascript-part-1/).
## Controls
* Arrow keys, hjkl, or wasd to move.
* [Space] or [.] to wait.
* [1 - 9] to invoke your god\'s blessings
* [;] to look around you
* [b] to show descriptions of blessings
* [e] to show descriptions of enemies
* [?] to show help screen
## Hints
1. Find the upstairs `<` on each floor.
2. You don't need to kill every enemy.
3. Find the Jewel of Zot `*` on Level 7 to win!
4. Each Blessing costs 1 favor to invoke.
5. Blessings are powerful, but you can only use 3 per level. Choose wisely.
6. Levi favors those who progress. Health and favor are restored each level.
7. New blessings become available each level.
## 7DRL Challenge History
* **Saturday:** Suddenly realize it is the week of the 7drl challenge.
* **Sunday:** Never made a game before. No detailed plans. Decide to try anyway. Start coding at around 11:30 pm...
* **Monday (Day 1):** Have been working on another js project recently so I feel like I have momentum. I'll use RoT.js.
* Use the tutorial at Coding Cookies to get a foundation. Strip out stuff I don't need like inventory and experience.
* Start on gameplay idea based loosely on card games. You randomly draw a hand of cards (prayers, spells). You can only 'play' so many per turn/level/whatever. Not straying too far for basic roguelike gameplay as I'm expecting a lot of effort just to make a game that works.
* Got an @ in a dungeon.
* **Tuesday:** I need a theme. Anything but goblins. I dunno, lobsterfolk? Sure. Sounds good. Ooh, and they can have an Atlantissy dungeon. And the player's god and abilities can be sea themed. Okay, this works.
* Add a few lobsterfolk enemies and start working on abilities system.
* **Wednesday:** Didn't have a lot of time today. Implement a few abilities.
* **Thursday:** Implement more abilities.
* **Friday:** Didn't get a chance to work on the game.
* **Saturday:** Add crabfolk and snails.
* Add win and lose screens.
* **Sunday (Day 7):** Final abilities.
* Testing.
* Bug fixing.
* Add touchscreen controls.
* Game finished around 10:40 pm.
