The Roguelike Rule of Thumb
https://synystron.substack.com/p/the-roguelike-rule-of-thumb
NOTE: This is an expanded version from the original. I drill into more details and address more FAQ and common criticisms and supposed traps in the endless debate.
someone asked on HN "so... what makes something Rogue-like anyway?" and since I didnt feel like screaming in public AND was unable to reach out and slap them, in private, with a large rotting salmon I instead wrote this extension on my blog.
