Crazy. May be a bug wherein a flag hasn't been properly set. If it is intentional, I've never seen it happen myself.

There are in fact over 300 versions/mods (not including all the different revisions of each) of the original Pixel Dungeon, Pixel Dungeons for various OS's, and serveral games that use the same title although they have no relationship to this Pixel Dungeon. When Doyla/Watabou released the source code for Pixel Dungeon to the public, there was no copyright, registration, or trademark involved, just a GPL. I recently brought this version you mention to the attention of this community. As it is not a working game as yet, or not available to the public for testing, not much can be said. The game has some elements of Pixel Dungeon 3D and other games. In fairness, it is not being presented as Shattered Pixel Dungeon, and it may be that the PD source was used. It may also be a clone. A PD fan inspired original game. Without further details one can only speculate. Reguardless, if they want to use the PD name, there is no legal recourse against it. Fan's of PD could rally to boycott as they have in the past, but to what end or extent? Should we attack all game clones? Should we go after all PD mods? Should the fans of original non-graphical Rogue-likes join in the battle to take down all graphical Rogue-likes. It's a slippery slope to start saying lets take legal action against open source software - you may as well be Micro$soft.
Elastic weapons and Wand of Blast are good for knocking fish about. When you do it to a fly and your potion of healing goes crashing into a pit below, not so good. First time I used the wand was on a gnoll. We were on a bridge. I watched him go spinning into the deapths to his death... me following right behind. Chains are excellent for pulling fish out, agreed. Also, for those without a means to range attack or pull/blast, while it won't kill them, a potion of invisibilty can get you past them.
Depends upon class and inventory. Use ranged weapons - bow, whip, spear. Don't use bombs. A potion of mind vision is a good way to track where they have teleported. Once dead, get the meat as it is very powerful.
I didn't know as there are so many PD branches and this game is not yet available for testing/playing. I also agree with the other poster that it appears to be real time play and not turn based, which is not in keeping with a Rogue-like. I saw the presentation doing a routine PD search and just thought it looked nice, especially with multi player coop support.
A bit Tolkein, but a ring that allows up to 9 other rings be worn, however, the more rings one has, the more curses the one ring applies. Also, if a Remove Curse is used on the one ring, it will destroy a random ring.
Also, could we get a listing of the 20 features so that we don't request something already added?
Well said. Thank you.
I do not know of a means to to that at this time. I live in a very remote area with no internet coverage and very poor phone coverage. That means I have neither the stable connection or bandwidth required for torrent. Therefore, I can not host files on my own. Torrent requires a software to act as a server and GDrive does not support torrent. If somebody else wants to host the files and provide a torrent they are welcome to do so. I am open to suggestions.
