Sleeping Beauty

Play:

Full screen Touch: Not supported -- this is a desktop-only, keyboard-driven game with a fixed monospace ASCII layout that does not reflow for narrow screens. · Keyboard: Arrow keys, numpad, or vi-keys (hjkl and diagonals) to move. Enter to start/confirm.

About:

A complete, week-long 7DRL jam roguelike by the creator of the rot.js toolkit. Climb a procedurally generated tower floor by floor to reach a sleeping princess. Confirmed via direct keyboard testing: arrow-key movement, wall-collision feedback, and door/room transitions all work correctly, with real contextual narrative text for every action. Desktop/keyboard only by design -- no viewport scaling for narrow screens -- reviewed and shipped under the desktop tier.

Chitinous Crooks A seven-day roguelike jam entry about lobsterfolk, a stolen jewel, and a randomised deck of one-shot blessings instead of the usual inventory — built with a genuinely well-designed touch control scheme.

Dragonsweeper Minesweeper, except the numbers are monster hit points and clicking one starts a fight. A viral, critically loved twist on a 35-year-old genre.
