Just want to say that Heavy Bullets is fantastic - it took a while to grow on me, but after finishing it five times, I have to say it's my favourite FPSRL.

Also, maybe add Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi.

Heavy Bullets is another game I hope GOG can get! Please vote for it!

Does this game count ?..

<span class="bold">Alpha gameplay trailer</span>

Routine is a first person horror exploration game set on an abandoned Moon Base. Your job is to find enough information to uncover the truth behind the strange disappearance of everyone stationed on the Lunar Research Station.

Features:

• A non linear experience lets you explore any part of the fully open Moon base and find out secrets other players may not!
• There are no health packs or multiple lives, in Routine there is a Perma Death system that will keep you on the edge!
• Be immersed with Full body awareness, Deadzone aiming, no HUD, no health bars or points system… you must run, hide and survive!
• An 80′s vision of the future that presents itself in audio and visuals!
• Randomized environmental hazards, AI locations and useful aids.
• Find floppy disks to upgrade your Cosmonaut Assistance Tool that will directly affect how your weapon reacts.

yeah, I have been loosely following this one also. Not sure how roguelite the end product will be. I think a bit of randomisation is not quite enough to be in this category. I have the same problem with Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi.

Wow! That looks like a cool game! 'Voted!

Ziggurat got released 2 days ago, and it turned out quite nice in the end. It may not be as long lasting as some of the other games here, but fun for a quick blast now and then.

I also managed to try out Depths of Fear: Knossos, and it is certainly an interesting title. It is very difficult, and much more stealth based than expected. It is also very unpolished and horribly optimised....

It seems like Ziggurat is one of the few FPS roguelites Total Biscuit do not mind - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8yKmGf6PGE

Don't play many of these, but I just got Eldritch a few days ago, and it's incredible.

Eldritch is a great game! GOG really needs to get it!

hedwards: By the OP's standards, Diablo would probably be considered Roguelike even though it's a different genre entirely.
I consider it a roguelike as well. Also, one of the devs' main inspirations was actually Rogue. And it shows. And that's why it's my favourite Diablo.

Looks nice. Considered it. Steam only :(.
"The game will be released on Humble Store, but there won't be a DRM-Free version for now.

We plan on keep adding new updates for some time, and having to keep a DRM-Free version up-to-date is a pain.

There's also the issue of leaderboards and achievements that the drm-free version wouldn't have (because they rely on the Steam API)." -- from the dev on steam forums

Oh well. Another one ill pass on

That's really sad to hear. Do all gaming devs feel that DRM-free games are "a pain" to update? I would think it should be easier to fix problems since there's no 3rd-party mess to deal with.
