What is TotT-style? Googling that term gives me Zelda and Harvest Moon references.Glorelendil wrote: ↑Tue Nov 07, 2017 11:56 pmI got mired in creating a subsystem for exploring underground TotT-style, without mapping it out. Went through about 8 versions of it, some of which I posted here.
Version 9 is going to be awesome. Really.

This. Sorry. In other words, being able to imagine journeying through an underground maze of passages and rooms and tunnels and caverns, without actually drawing it out on a piece of paper.

D'oh! I should have known that one. I think I've been stumped by that one before, too.
