What are /r/PixelDungeon's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

You can get it freely on Google Play Store

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unistpixel.unistpixeldungeon

Basically is a mod with only one class. No wands, weapons are changed to mobile phones, scrolls have the texture of floppy disks and weak enemies have the texture of scrolls. Armor is changed to rugby uniforms.

Its relatively easy since It only has ten floors and there are only five scrolls. The hardest part is that everything is in korean.

Here's one not everyone knows about. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.udawos.pioneer They took the game WAY 'out of the dungeon'^(dunno if still being worked on or not though)

Everyone loves Shattered...

I'd really suggest starting with vanilla PD though (vanilla as in un-modded).

http://pixeldungeon.watabou.ru/

Once you beat that a couple few times then start on the mods.

Remixed Dungeon 28.4 update almost entirely dedicated (beside of various bug-fixes) to visual improvements - weapons equipped by hero now visible in game.

Update already live on Google Play

And source code on github

You can find it here;

http://www.hiapphere.org/app-com.watabou.pixeldungeon

But instead I highly recommend trying Shattered Pixel Dungeon. It is a very popular mod with many great additions and changes plus it is also based on 1.7.5 source but with degradation removed.

If you want to play vanilla pixel dungeon without degradation, you can either download v1.7.2a from watabou's site, http://pixeldungeon.watabou.ru/desktop.html, or somehow download an older apk.

Shattered pixel dungeon has some notable differences, mainly that classes and sub-classes have been completely reworked, many new items have been added (artifacts, new darts, etc.), a new visual 2.5D dungeon style, and the main strive to be as close to vanilla gameplay as possible, while fixing most of vanilla's flaws.

As for what you'd do in vanilla after completing the game, well there's still a bunch of empty, yet fancy badges you can try to collect. And of course, there's the new 7 challenges you've unlocked.

Also, download TCPD here:

​

It's based on current Shattered release, and adds a ton of new, fun challenges!

https://vk.com/wall-132629147_9005 There you can find more screenshots

Ghosty gave me +3 leather armor, wandmaker gave frost +1, i two wands of fireblast +1 and reforge them into fireblast +2.

After clearing metropolis i imbue staff of frost +1 with fireblast +2 and get fireblast +3.

My items are really weird, they are not viable.

Tpecial thank for Succubus delivery! This organization give me 2 additional scrolls of lullaby!

As far as I understand the policy stay the same, but detection software got upgrade.

How this happens?

At first, I got this:

Your app was rejected because it violates our impersonation policy. We determined that your app may mislead users due to similarity between your app's title, icon, or other metadata elements and those of:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.watabou.pixeldungeon

Then this:

I reviewed your app and had to reject it because it violates our metadata policy.

The app's full description mentions other brands: Pixel Dungeon.

And last objection was:

The app's full description mentions other apps: Pixel Dungeon.

Also, it seems like support do not read mails I send them and just keeps citing impersonation policy.

Don't know if written permission helps...

The exact reason was >Thanks for submitting Skillful Pixel Dungeon (com.bilboldev.pixeldungeonskills) to Google Play. Your app was rejected because it violates our impersonation policy. We determined that your app may mislead users due to similarity between your app's title, icon, or other metadata elements and those of:

> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.watabou.pixeldungeon

An inquire about details lead to this

>I reviewed your app and had to reject it because it violates our metadata policy.

> The app's full description mentions other apps: Pixel Dungeon created by Watabou.

I am not sure removing the reference can violate the GPL as the source code is still given out and credit is given in about section of the app. Do we have to put something in store listing?

>First, I just wanted to suggest using a polling website, such as StrawPoll, to host your poll for your mod. Using FaceBook may not be the best way to host a poll, since you yourself had to create the fanpage with your personal profile, and other users taking the poll have to use their personal profile to vote on the poll. This pulls away from the anonymity of reddit, and may make some users feel uncomfortable.

I just wanted to gather interested users (I'll post on other forums too) to once place, where I can show progress of my work. Also I don't want to divide the community. I think common (non-programmers) Internet users don't like pages like GitHub. So I created fanpage on Facebook, because it was fast and simple. But you're right. It can really make some users feel uncomfortable.

>There was a project, that may or may not still be available, that was called Pioneer, and was an open world adventure game that was partially based off of Pixel Dungeon, and used parts of the original coding, graphics, etc. to create the game.

I've found this. However the game seems to be more like Fallout with PD resources and systems. I mean gun, planet etc.

Thank you for your comment. It's really helpful for me.

I used frep to automate clicking the "wait" button and eating when I get hungry. Also, I'm wearing a +12 ring of wealth. I have modified the script since I uploaded it awhile back, but the original should work okay, once you change the hero image, provided you have enough chargrilled monster meat.

IIRC, I had about 1,000 chargrilled monster meats coming in, and I now have a little over 3,800, and over 400 of each kind of mushroom.

Well, MODs can sound worse if the individual sample quality is low, but file size doesn't depend on playing time, since it's a midi-like structure with digital samples bundled in one file. So if one use the same samples one can have more songs for all the dungeon sections in one file. Of course a MOD, or more likely the more modern S3M, XM or IT file with lots good quality samples could be larger than an MP3, though.

If you want to listen to some of them, you can get and play them on modarchive.org . This is one of my favorites.

There are mod players for android - I use Xmp Mod Player

Thanks!

NNYPD is no doubt exist here for 4 months.

So let's call it: first time available to general public in prebuilt apk and source code forms.

But.

First public available visual weapons concept for Remixed was published on 26 Mar 2018

Visual weapons idea in PD (in general) was mentioned even earlier countless times by many people.

I'm a huge programming novice so I can't tell you with any authority, but check out Code Academy and /r/learnprogramming.

One of the newer posts on /r/learnprogramming actually seems like just what you need. Check it out.

In my mod I am attempting to do modifications in all areas of Pixel Dungeon, and keep a single clean commit for each change. You could try looking at my changes to get a feel for the code. Once I finish with a few tweaks I am going to update with the newest versions (reddit interface changes, version number click brings up version history, difficulty levels (in ~5 parts)).

The code will let you see what needs to be done to do atomic-level things, like adding a new mob to the dungeon, implementing a new weapon enchantment, changing the dungeon size, adding a custom window or scene, modifying how hunger affects the game, adding a level-up buff, adding a new room or feature, etc... I am actually hoping that my code packages will be a good contribution to the community.

Hey, I'm not Evan, but a lot of the mechanics from the original Pixel Dungeon that carried over into Shattered PD are actually inspired by Brogue: you'll recognize the single stat (strength), enchanting lowering strength requirements and increasing power, and some of the traps, wands, and rings. It's a very different game (no classes, an 'ally' mechanic that significantly changes the game, very different terrain...) but it might interest you.

Yep, I did say "unless Watabou is relicensing" in the first sentence, I'm aware of the possibility of relicensing. The Play Store description is a strong indication that the GPL license is intended to continue, not sure how you're jumping to "It is very clear that no version past 1.7.2 has been licensed under GPL yet" from there. He said "Pixel Dungeon is open source and free software", not "Pixel Dungeon <=1.7.2 is open source and free software", right there on the page where 1.7.4b is hosted (as well as on the homepage).

It would be rather misleading for him to say that there if he were opposed to the current build being GPLed, this smells of you imposing your values on the matter rather than any actual input from the copyright holder. I sympathize that it's frustrating for you to hold your mod back to 1.7.2 due to the source being unavailable (awesome mod btw). I'm very lucky that my changes are small enough (just a few lines) that I can do this, as smali assembler is a massive pain compared to working with the Java source. This would be entirely impractical for a more complex mod, I feel your pain. I'm not here to make money or entirely fork the game, so please stop attacking me for trying to help people enjoy this game again.

Again, if I see anything to indicate that it's now non-free or that it's expressly non-free until source is released, I'll take this down myself. I deeply respect the efforts of the author, and it seems like the delay on source releases (from when it was first GPLed, not just now) have been because it's low-priority for Watabou, not that he desires an exclusivity period to the source.

I'm sorry, but I still dont get it. ShatteredPD is only available for mobiles phones and not PCs as far as I'm aware. In the website it only has links for mobile downloads. . Maybe I'm wrong though, but I've heard Evan saying it. Where did you get it from? are you sure is not the vanilla version? I'm not tryng to be a prick, just curious , since I would like to play it on PC aswell.

Yes, you can download it on the snap store:

https://snapcraft.io/shattered-pixel-dungeon

Thats how I found this game :D. I never play on mobile.

Alternatively you can directly download the .jar file from Evan's github and use OpenJDK 8 to run it, but it won't auto update unlike the snap.

Quick update: the link automatically redirects to the correct page on mobile, but the desktop site still isn't displayed correctly.

Using the link https://www.transifex.com/darkest-pixel-dungeon-localization/darkest-pixel-dungeon-localization/ rather than the original https://www.transifex.com/darkest-pixel-dungeon-localization/ seems to work, however.

Hi, I am not involved in the development of the mod at all, but here is the link https://www.transifex.com/special-surprise-pd/sps-translate-program/dashboard/ You will have to create a transifex account or use any of your existing social media accounts (facebook / twitter / linkedin / google, not reddit unfortunately) to see all the details and add content though. Me and u/Noodlemire have written the SPS-PD wiki pages and he has also edited some english translations in transifex, so if you plan to edit the english text in transifex, you might want to communicate with him.

You have a great journey ahead of you. UPGRADE ALL THE THINGS

Basically, lots of food, lots of dew, lots of upgrades, lots of new floors. More everything essentially.

Congratulations! If you are interested in participating in the Hall of Fame, save a picture of the Stats tab before that game disappears. The 6th slot disappears as soon as you win or die again.

Yes I am all for open source, I was waiting till I have my own site but since it's going to take a while. https://www.mediafire.com/?plcb6n0ytx0bp4z . That link is for the source code of 0.1.5. I will update link per new version. I do have a question though. I have an idea for another app (completely non-PD related) but I might use some of the code from PD (very little, like maybe items or so). If I do so would the new project have to be completely open source or just the part I used/modified? Because I plan on investing some money in graphics and as I said I am all for open source but I would like to have a 'private' project.

Fun Fact: thanks to this, I got to You-Dewza first time and beat him first time, here's the happy end badge I got: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&amp;ik=6036166631&amp;attid=0.1&amp;permmsgid=msg-a:r798036765908344346&amp;th=17b7977481b2abb3&amp;view=fimg&amp;disp=thd&amp;attbid=ANGjdJ-yVlmUFyqpIVaQsCqxNY5ROsWjIZCWtyFVtCpHl9QtpMXprYQAHvKTd10nptgga4tsmg...

Worth it tbh. New mobs, reworks to wands, updates to alchemy and overall more customizable for playing and versatility with characters. And most of your tricks from long ago might actually help you out a lot but you will still have to relearn what’s new. If you want to download it I’ll pass along the links! iOS version: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shattered-pixel-dungeon/id1563121109 Android Version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shatteredpixel.shatteredpixeldungeon&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US Happy adventuring!

Chinese mods:
- I don't have the links for Touhou, Corrupted or the rest, as although I'm noticed about their existence I don't have enough knowledge (I don't have any) of Chinese to search for them.
- Pixel Dungeon 2 was downloadable in Google Play Store, but it had been retired (as it was a copy of Remixed): I found an alternative link. link

- I suppose you know "Survival Pixel Dungeon", and probably that is what you have in the ShatPD INDEV. Other INDEV versions are made by discord users and I don't think they would like me to share its early alpha versions. However, you can ask them if you wanna get those mods, but I warn you the previous ShatPD Indev you had installed will be overwritten.

It was until recently, but you are right, it does not anymore. If you google "pioneer mobile game apk" yoy will find some download links like this one https://apkpure.com/pioneer/com.udawos.pioneer

Ah, is this your source? It helps to include a link to it when you first release the mod, or in the Play Store description, otherwise people will think you haven't open sourced it. As for the modding guidelines, it appears your mod has only covered two of the three requirements. You still need to change the hero screen (third requirement).

Once you release your mod publicly to the community, we will add your mod to the sidebar under the Pixel Dungeon Mods section. Please make the necessary changes, and then feel free to make a new post.

Your comment made me re-read where I got it:

> Please consider, that the desktop version is still in beta state. Also, not all features, available in Android version, may be implemented on desktop platforms.

Welp, I guess it means I can't play it. I can't use an Android, nor can't emulate it either.
Thanks for the help and stay safe.

It's a cool idea, I don't see how it could hurt creating access for more people to play the game. Hopefully it will mean some more donations for him as well.

well

• devs can now directly respond to google play comments, so you can try that
• or any of the links in the about section of the game page, like facebook or other forums http://pixeldungeon.watabou.ru/

I am sincerely glad that my example inspired other people like you to translate other versions into other languages BTW I'll give u link to the transifex site where you can start translating: https://www.transifex.com/darkest-pixel-dungeon-localization/darkest-pixel-dungeon-localization/dashboard/

For more information you need u/Egoal discord.

The game has a publicly available translation community. Anyone is welcome to contribute there: https://www.transifex.com/shattered-pixel/shattered-pixel-dungeon/

It looks like Russian is fully translated though. Those translations will get added in v0.9.1a

Soon you'll have the option, maximum readability or better art style.

Also, anyone is welcome to help translate through the transifex website: https://www.transifex.com/shattered-pixel/shattered-pixel-dungeon/

Btw, there are super cool tools that make working with github a lot easier, especially if you don't want to put a lot of time into learning it. For example, use the github desktop client (https://desktop.github.com/ for mac or windows) or gitkraken (https://www.gitkraken.com/ windows, linux, mac), they will help a lot!

After a year of development I reached the point where I can call the current version complete (even though it is still a demo). I stopped working on it and will not continue unless something happens.

Shit's pretty funny, Oingo disguised as Jotaro shows up as the Albino Rat and The Fool is the Sewer Rat. Hope you check it out!

Welcome : )

Personally I think Shattered is super impressive and professional, and just bigger and fuller than the original vanilla, but for my taste I just love vanilla more.

Both have a ton of mods forked from them that you can have a lot of fun exploring.

Both are pretty savagely difficult, which can make learning tough. Lots of people like that, but if you don't there are mods that make it easier. ***Shameless plug*** I made one that's fairly close to vanilla but makes ankhs better for cheating death or allows you to turn off permadeath entirely: PD Echo ***end plug***

The other comments have good answers for your specific questions. For a bit more on traps (in Vanilla): the deliberate search (magnifying glass button) is twice as likely to notice traps and hidden doors but still not guaranteed. Also if you think there might be one you can throw stuff to trigger them safely. Stepping on some is gonna happen, be careful running around with low health.

I also second the wiki as a resource. I've been playing off and on over five years and still discover things there.

Reading down I see that you're playing Yet Another Pixel Dungeon.

Pixel Dungeon is open source and accordingly there are a bunch of other versions of it. Popular versions include Vanilla (original), Shattered (probably the most balanced), Sprouted (the grindiest), Moonshine, Yet Another Pixel Dungeon (honestly my least favorite), Remixed, Unleashed, and a bunch of others.

Commonalities are that they all have the same basic mechanics; some versions have bigger changes than others. I recommend 100% trying out Shattered Pixel Dungeon.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shatteredpixel.shatteredpixeldungeon&amp;hl=en_US

Goblins Pixel Dungeon actually is on the Play Store

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locastan.pixeldungeongoblins

while Lovecraft Pixel Dungeon can be found here

https://www.reddit.com/r/PixelDungeon/comments/6c6zrp/lovecraft_pixel_dungeon_new_update_viivi/

Google Play charges users who want to upload their app to the store, which is something that some people don't want to/can't afford to do. If you can't find something on the store, then searching r/PixelDungeon will generally point you in the right direction.

Loot Dungeon is inactive and likely abandoned completely, though, and the only link I could find on here gave me an error.

I know you all are playing the heck out of the new Shattered update (me too), but Sprouted went live today in the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.dachhack.sprout&amp;hl=en

I have the limited-edition version created and will send out a link with directions shortly.
