NTAngband
How does it differ? The NT stands for Non-Tolkienian. It is the authors intention to make nonviolence possible by allowing peaceful professions and allowing nonviolent ways to gain XP. NTAngband also 'attempts to provide both zany dungeons and deep, intense places'.
New to 0.1; Added the ability to make monsters go insane and become flakey, statues soon to come. Try out Harpers, they're worth playing now. Axed the Pern monster list, returned a few monsters.
New to 0.3; Made item damage from elemental attacks dependent on damage dealt, so resists help. Made it so that dungeons can have separate lists of monsters, items, artifacts, etc. Fixed the Random Birth option. Added in the Random Options option.
New to 0.3f; Bugfix release.
New to 0.4; Removed Merchant, Daemonologist and Necromancer classes. Removed Gnome, Dark Elf, Yeek, DeathMold and Kobold races. Removed Nether realm. Separate dungeon files now work (kind of) thanks to Malmberg. Polished 'E'ating command to make it less annoying. Added a parasitic worm (Enterobius vermicularis) just for fun, as well as some other monsters. Returned the Yeeks and Shrieker mushroom patches. Began adding Mycoparasitologist class.
New to 0.5; Removed the Chaos Warrior Warrior-Mage/Warlock and Power Mage classes. Changed the Petty Dwarf race from nearly extinct to extinct. Removed Chaos realm. Added the insanely cool Fungus Strike spell to the (future) parasitology spell list. Made plans for alternate universes. Added a few more monsters. Finally made an endgame. Cooked up some strictly Tolkienian *_info.txt files for the (future) alternate universes.
New to 0.6; Removed the Illusionists and their realm. Removed the Sigaldry realm. Added the SILLY flag to dungeons so that silly events don't happen in serious dungeons. Seriously damaged my brain removing items in k_info.txt and manually renumbering the entries. Removed Shadow realm. Made an auto-renumberer. Added morale. Removed 'disturb_pets' and 'foo_monsters' options. Removed Priests and Paladins. Removed Vanilla Prayer, Valarin and Crusade realms. Hacked in a "telnet" option that redraws the screen at several points that tend to leave droppings on the screen. Changed "telnet" to a #define in defines.h. Cleaned up minor problems with options. Fixed the makefiles so that -DDEFAULT_PATH is defined properly.
New to 0.6b; Bugfix release.
