Darn! Fortunately it seems to work fine in wine in console. Any way to set an 80x24 screen size via a commandline flag or config file or something? Intent here is to use it as a BBS door. Thanks!
decently fun way to kill an hour, but the incredibly heavy rng of the game can be rage inducing at best. the amount of times i would find new gear, equip it, and have it permanently destroyed in the very next fight first turn was extremely upsetting and left me thinking "why even give it to me then?" some mechanics are poorly explained, such as consumables, it took me 4 failed runs to realize ectoplasm's were potions since every one i ate did nothing, and having beaten the game i still don't know if the white and blue ectoplasms even have an effect or if it's just a "gotcha" which would be weird since ectoplasm's effects don't change between runs.
Thank you for checking out the game. Ah yes the game is admittedly very obtuse, partly by design, although I can see why it would be frustrating. As far as the Ectoplasms, I don't know if you tried the "balm" command, but that is what I would recommend. Thank you again for leaving your thoughts.

Is there any way to distribute the .py source? I'd love to try running this in linux or mac without having to use wine. Thanks!
That is not likely to happen.
But yeah that is the unfortunate thing working with Python, making an exe on other platforms is a project on its own.
