I like the alternative combat system in your game. Although I often forget my hand when attacking enemies. But the whole “cards are your life” system hugely reminds me of Gloomhaven, which I love.

What aspects do you consider make traditional roguelike design enjoyable?
Minimalistic artstyles such as ASCII tend to allow for higher scope of complexity. This doesn't apply exclusively to roguelikes, but I believe it is a wonderful aspect of the genre in general. Procedural generation is another, which my former gratitude lends well to, allowing even greater emergence and endlessly-unique layouts if granted the time. I think future video games, if they took one step back, could achieve great things in both these regards.
