Build a roguelike: turn-based grid movement, procedural dungeons, permadeath, field-of-view, and loot tables. Use for a roguelike/roguelite or turn-based grid dungeon crawler with procedural levels.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Roguelike A playbook for roguelikes — the turn engine, procedural dungeons, field-of-view, permadeath, and run economy.

It does not re-teach noise/RNG or tilemap APIs; it defines the loop and the systems that make a *run* compelling. ## When to use - Use when building a **turn-based, grid-based** dungeon crawler where each death ends the run and the world is regenerated — a roguelike or "roguelite" (with meta-progression). - Use when designing procedural dungeons, FOV/fog-of-war, permadeath stakes, or loot tables. **When *not* to use:** real-time action with roguelike *dressing* → build the action genre (`platformer`/`fps-shooter`) and layer `procedural-gen`. Deep stats/quests/dialogue without permadeath → `rpg`. Open-world needs/crafting → `survival-crafting`. ## What makes it a roguelike (design anchor) The community reference is the **Berlin Interpretation** (RogueBasin, IRDC 2008): a set of "roguelikeness" factors, not a checklist. The high-value ones are the design targets: …

How to install
mdr add gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills/roguelike@sha256:05dc641b7360ade2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.3727d02, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
