Roguelike Conference
I'd guess anyone who'd want to go to this probably already knows about it, but just in case, I just saw on another forum that there's a 1-day roguelike conference in San Francisco in September, with some of the original developers of Rogue, the Brogue guy, Dwarf Fortress guys, DCSS, CoQ, etc...

This is now tomorrow. d_m and myshkin are flying the flag for Angband; see here for the schedule.
It looks really awesome, and I wish I could be there.

Got my ticket; anyone else going? Barring some last minute disaster, I'll be the old fat balding white guy in the black shirt with the NASA logo

I think I'm going to go too. Haven't picked out my outfit yet though. I'm sure I'll be the only 40 something dude there
![]() I feel like everyone should add their various forum names to their nametags. e: seems like they are sold out, but it looks like there will be a stream. Last edited by bio_hazard; September 17, 2016 at 05:22. |

That may not be enough information to distinguish you.

Just listened to the twitch stream- nice job guys! A lot to summarize in a short time. Between this and the Roguelike Radio interview from a few years ago I think it gives a good picture of how the game is changing and why.
Makes me want to say a big Thank You again for all the work you and other devs have done over the last 10 years! ![]() I can't watch the afternoon talks, so hopefully these are being recorded for posterity? |

If it's on twitch, I'm assuming there will be an archive! Looking forward to seeing it.

Have just watched the talk on replay on twitch; this is the whole session, the Angband talk starts at 1:50:00 (thanks debo for finding it for me).
It is a really great summary of the trends in Angband over the last ten years from the devteam's point of view. Excellent job by myshkin and d_m to (a) actually get organised to be there and (b) give such an interesting and faithful account. Loved the reference to this thread. Well done guys!
