This looks really great! I can't wait to get home and load it up on my GP2X!

Love the old-school rogue graphics - is that the set used on the Atari ST?

I think this set is just the standart tileset of nethack, so I guess it's the one that has also been on the atari.
Of course, the original graphics look like that, but in my opinion, that isn't very confortable to play. I prefer graphics ( even if I played the other nethack port, and enjoyed it as well :)):

Good work on this one, I mainly do dev stuff and test my own games but when this came out I actually started taking my gp2x on the train etc rather than my ds.

I did see somthing buglike in the previous version. At a bottom level menu the 'stick click' stopped activating things, I forget which menu it was but I will check out this version and get back to you.

Thanks again.
