Berserk! 0.8 RELEASED!

Berserk! 0.8 RELEASED!

Yes, against the crushing opposition I am developing Berserk! further! This release presents the second (of the intended three) gameplay mode of Berserk! -- Endless!

Major changes include character development, skills, a lot new monsters (all monsters except the beast now have unique abilities), improved help, game replay, bugfixes and more!

Currently Windows binaries and source are available (you'll need the current FreePascal compiler and Valkyrie 0.4.2 to compile them). If some kind soul could provide linux binaries (preferably static-linked) I would be more than grateful!

Valkyrie 0.4.2 can be found at:

  http://valkyrie.chaosforge.org/

Berserk! related discussion is welcome on rgr.misc and the Berserk! forum on Chaosforge Forums:
