Hi!
Warlock's Gauntlet is an Open-Source community project, created by users from gamedev.pl - a polish game development site known as Warsztat (the workshop). It's a dynamic, top-down shooter (well, spell-caster) game, placing you - the player - in the role of a battlemage. The hero travels through maps filled with monsters, gaining experience and learning new spells. The game is similar to titles like Gauntlet or Diablo.
The game features over 12 action-packed levels which should amount to about two hours of gameplay; the player character can learn over 30 distinct spells. There is no networked multiplayer, but the game includes a hot-seat two-player mode. The game available entirely for free - the code is open source and the assets are licensed CC.
We are looking forward to your comments - both the positive and the negative ones. Either If you think you can help - with the graphics, sound, level design or by contriving a plotline - we would happy to have you
You must be aware that the project is developed and managed in polish, so your contact with the team and understanding of ongoing issues could be lacking.
(Of course we are using SFML - version 1.4, however the migration to 1.6 is in progress. Also we consider using pure OpenGL to gain better performance and have better control which will enable us to implement some good stuff
)
