This site provides
download and technical information about the roguelike game CaveRover.
Gameplay information could be found on the CaveRover blog (doesn't contain anything more then rambling at the moment).
Executables/binaries: Windows binary Linux binary (needspdcurses & libfov) Thess are snapshots I compile and update every once in a while - it is
recommended to get the latest via subversion & compile it yourself.
It is often out of date and is always not to be considererd as more then a demo of what the final game will be like.
