About the Book
Remember the first time a giant rat killed you in a dungeon you never saw coming?
There's a reason roguelikes have survived forty years of gaming trends, outlasted entire console generations, and inspired some of the biggest indie hits of the last decade. Procedural dungeons that never repeat. Monsters that hunt you. Loot worth dying for. And permadeath that makes every single decision matter.
Now you can build one yourself, from scratch, in Python.
The Python RogueLike takes you from a blank screen to a fully playable roguelike in nine focused chapters. No game engine required. No assets to buy. Just Python, your terminal, and a dungeon that tries to kill you in a different way every single time you run it.
You will build a procedurally generated map that is never the same twice, monsters with genuine AI that hunt you through the corridors, a turn-based combat system with real stakes, loot that changes how you play, multi-level dungeons that get nastier the deeper you go, and permadeath that finally gives your decisions some teeth.
Along the way you will actually understand every line of code, because this book explains the reasoning behind each decision, not just the syntax.
Whether you played Moria on a beige box in 1983 or you just want to ship something you can hand to a friend and say "I built this," this is the book that gets you there.
The dungeon is waiting. How deep can you go?
