Every so often, the denziens of rgrd decide to hold a 7DRL challenge.

The challenge is to write a Seven Day Roguelike (7DRL). While you are free to write a 7DRL whenever you feel like it, doing it during an official challenge lets you share the pain of tracking down a hard-to-find bug at the last second before the deadline.

The challenge has been held twice so far, and the results are available here:

On February 25th, 2006, the dwellers of rec.games.roguelike.development were again challenged to write a new, complete, playable, roguelike in the scary span of just 168 hours. One full year had passed since the first time the brave ones challenged the myth.

Still, twenty brave souls dared to challenge the impossible. Of those, twelve have provided proof of their heroic deed. All of them, however, should be honoured for having taken on this challenge.

This list is sorted by date of acceptance of the challenge.
