The full story
A fan of NetHack built a roguelike RPG played entirely in the terminal, written in Rust with the Ratatui framework. The player wakes on a derelict generation ship and must first activate the ship's AI.
Maps are procedurally generated, there is procedurally synthesised music and sound, and Claude generates narrative content such as terminal logs, crew records and obituaries in real time as you explore.
