Excellent. Quite a bit of work has been done on it since 4.2.5 came out, mostly (all?) by backwardsEric.

If you have compiled as I said with

sudo make install

you should be able to just run

angband -msdl2

If you did as in the compile instructions...

[Nick]

Where can it be got from? Apparently it isn't in the play store and people are looking for it.

[Nick]

Yep, they've pretty much been emptied....

That looks like a bug

The answer to all your questions really is that it's too early to say. The executable you are looking at actually resulted from me moving stuff around...

You are so going to die...

Not a win, but I have had a serious game (of Sil-Q, but still). And it certainly has informed me a whole lot.

Note that I did know your...
