Hacking? NetHacking?
It's “Hackn”! Yes, yet another NetHack clone, using NCurses!
Hackn is a NetHack clone, of sorts, written to use the NCurses library.
It includes a (currently small) wrapper to make NCurses nicer to use
from C++. The wrapper is contained in the nc.h
header.
Actually, this was created as a project to learn NCurses, not the other way around, but I’m currently planning on continuing development anyway.
Hackn and the NCurses wrapper are written using some C++11 functionality, which make some things much nicer, so you will need a recent version of GCC (Hackn currently compiles with g++ 4.6.3, so it doesn’t need to be bleeding edge).
So alpha, it’s practically omega! (I’m positive no one’s ever used that joke before!)
