Hi. I'm a moderate fan of roguelikes, although I'm not very good at the major ones (heck, I can barely pass 6 levels in NetHack, and 3 in the original Rogue.) Being a 100% geek with some Python background, I'm developing a roguelike of my own hosted at [http://code.google.com/p/operation-dragonsmite/ Google Code], essentially a total spoof on NetHack.
