I call shotgun! This week we are playing the oldest traditional roguelike of our program thus far: DoomRL - Doom the Roguelike! But also its modern remaster Jupiter Hell, both by @epyon

The 20+ year old roguelike that shifted the conversation to "less is more" still holds up, even if the config files still crash from time to time.

DoomRL / Jupiter Hell

Demonic presence at unsafe levels, podcast in effect! For our listener request week, we summon a granddaddy of the traditional roguelike pantheon: DoomRL - Doom: The Roguelike. But we couldn’t talk about a game with a 20+ year legacy without also crash landing on its gorgeous modern 3D remaster: Jupiter...

Steam:Jupiter Hell Classic

Jupiter Hell Classic is the demake of a remake of a roguelike unmake of a famous 1993 FPS shooter. Rip and Tear!

@grogpod @epyon Jupiter hell runs great on the deck, but it does drain the battery a little too much. Hopefully this demake will last more.

@Blackthorn @epyon Ya I run JH at 30 fps when I'm on the couch and it works just as good.

At 60 the fan spins hard, I think the graphics push the deck just a touch hard undocked.

DoomRL on the steam deck can run for a million hours, so I'd expect JH Classic would have a similarly low resource impact.
