7DRL : Antigen

[John Leffingwell]

Hello roguelikers!

I'm starting a bit late but my sights are set pretty low. This will be
my first 7DRL (or roguelike of any stripe for that matter) as well as
my first time posting in this group. My attempt is called "Antigen",
and like my other games it has a biological theme for some strange
reason unknown to me. I'm building it in GameMaker, more or less from
scratch, and it will be very simple and non-traditional.

Not going to make the challenge deadline since I started so late, but I'm going to try to finish this within the 168 hour limit. Unfortunately, another 168 hour challenge started a couple of days ago that is demanding my attention as well. Madness!

As I sort of expected, all my attention was diverted from this to another 168 hour challenge. It's very doubtful I'll finish this in the next 14 hours. Beaten by the lure of riches. Didn't give enough time for either challenge and I'm paying the price. I think I could have really nailed both of these if the timing were better. Cursed fate!

Here's an "Antigen" screenshot from last week. The player graphic is temporary. In part, the gimmick of the game is that the environment is a dynamic antagonist. The player is also able to move through walls to a limited (and dangerous) degree.
