NRoD :: v0.5

Fifth, mostly debugging release of Near Risk of Death!

Features:

• Monsters are now chance-based - if there are more than one entity in location to hunt, they can be given specific chance to be drawn, making some monsters rarer and others more frequent
• Rat King, being miniboss found on Nomad Camp Road
• Iron Armor and its heavy variant, being both improved armors
  • They served as testing entities for new moddable element system, as well as upcoming change in fighting mechanics

Balancing:

• Since rats could be seen as easy cash, they were downgraded with rewards and slightly improved with statistics; existence of Rat King makes it also a bit more dangerous to hunt rats

Fixes & QoL:

• ID changes for items and locations; if you are loading the game, expect finding yourself in default location instead of saved one
• A lot of technical changes under the hood for upcoming system revamps

NRoD :: v0.4

Fourth release of Near Risk of Death, adding several fixes and features!

Features:

• New mid-location, Nomad Camp Road
• New beast for low-tiered players
• Large healing potion

Balancing:

• Beast reward now depends on several factors and while still random, has more balancing effect

Fixes & QoL:

• Fixed crash happening when you spammed "attack" button
• Allowed to run new game after death
• Improved performance slightly

NRoD :: v0.3

Slightly updated v0.2, mostly aimed on fixing performance issues. Should work pretty smooth now.

NRoD :: v0.2

Second version of NRoD, with GUI and images. Use nrod_legacy.bat file to run terminal version (they can be used interchangeably).

Changes:

• Most importantly, GUI version
• Added medium healing potion and rebalanced slightly existing one

NRoD :: v0.1

First version of NRoD, released mostly for archiving purposes, but also for those who would like to touch terminal version of the game, before it goes graphical.

Changes:

• Reworked mechanics:
  • Shops are now location-relative; location may not have shop, and contents of the shop depend on location
  • Travel is now location-relative; each location have different destination lists
  • Items now can have effects, such as healing
• Revamped elements:
  • Switched aesthetics from fantasy to post-apo
  • Removed most of previous elements, others got renamed
• Implemented fully working save/load mechanics

Nimrod (Legacy Version)

Old terminal-driven fantasy game called NimRoD (or NIMROD, Nimrod, from Nim old name).
Very basic and similar on premise to old Between Shadows and Light game of mine. Had moddable (hardcoded) system of beasts, locations and items.

Released as legacy version, new ones will differ.
