In preparation for the upcoming #7drl challenge, there's a thread up on r/roguelikedev for hooking up with partners--go it alone... or not! (also on Discord)

7DRL 2026 started over the weekend, and we have our first progress thread up and ready in r/RoguelikeDev (with many others sharing in the discord #7drl channel): https://old.reddit.com/r/roguelikedev/comments/1rifaft/share_your_7drl_progress_as_of_monday_20260302/

Looks like 539 devs joined this year so far. Fewer than in the past, but there's still time yet.

This year Jacob Marks is working on a pirate 7DRL--buy a ship, sail the seas... make crew members walk the plank? :P

Terrain's looking nice. Updated animated version on discord: https://discord.com/channels/205277826788622337/417212831918718992/1477859712132190470

Oh there are already *two* pirate 7DRLs taking shape this year! (every year there's a random theme that happens to get shared across multiple entries, maybe this year it's pirates xD)

This one's from trustyape.

ptrefall doesn't have much time this year, so classic roguelike it is. Good font for it, at least :D
