Hey, thanks for sharing this! I'm really glad you had a good time with the game.
Honestly, this looks pretty cool! I played around with the idea before like, having "heavy, mid and light" weapon options, but I scrapped it for balancing issues. Your idea is pretty cool in terms of adding more to the setting along with padding the combat rules a bit more. I'll definitely give your idea a go a few times to see how it plays out on the table! If you happen to post it as a project here on itch.io, let me know so I can hook up on my table for people who want to try it as well!
Glad you approve :) I really wanted to stick with what felt like your design philosophy so I thought providing different weapons bonuses that had discrete advantages and disadvantages could give some nice variability to play without providing a clear 'you have to take this' to play. I thought the idea of 'paying' for a second weapon at the start with a starting attribute point was a very powerful tradeoff. Like sure, you could start with a bow and a knife, but you might REALLY need that point of resilience later.
I appreciate the offer with respect to putting my project in your viewer's FOV, unfortunately it's not ready for the limelight yet. It's a computer game (Dungeoneer) which is an FPS dungeon crawler. It's got roguelike components and a strong influence from old school dungeon RPGs. But that said, I'm still at least two years away from what I'd consider a real working product. I posted a devlog recently which shows current progress.
I'm interested to hear how your tests bear out!
I think you did a great job at keeping close to the game's pillars!
I think I expressed myself wrongly: I meant to ask if you intend to post your Armory design anywhere! I think for people looking for more decision-making involved in their runs it could be a great addition!
But since you mentioned your own project, I think it's right down my alley as well! I don't know if you could tell, but the original Rogue game was a huge inspiration for Dungeons of Galora's design
