sorry can't build it. says "UTF8". then i stripped 8th bits ;) but it got 12 errors (perhaps some function names are one utf8 apart and now conflict?) at best. but the "build.xml" idkwtftis no instructions and says there should be a lib/ folder and it is not in src distro. junit.jar i know requires gradle we're talking 100 or hundres of .class unsourced (no .java in jar) scattered undocumented. so yea if i cannot reproduce the OPEN part of OpenSource i cannot give stars.

Good work and a very interesting gameplay!

Classic roguelike fun: Far better than those procedural-language-based games, Java makes TYRANT source code easier to tweak, explore, support, improve & customize. TYRANT offers everyone a great way to either learn more about programming, or to participate in the game-creation experience. Recommended!

Great game for anyone who loves rogue-like games, or can appreciate the depth of an rpg without high graphics. My only problem is after tons of playing as my half-troll warrior lvl 28, I still can't even come close to killing the tyrant :(. There must be some kind of secret weakness
