Gravity in Crawl

So, my PC seems to have turned into a star system, with an Orb of Destruction perpetually orbiting around it. I blocked it with a +6 amulet of reflection, and it must have gotten attached to me after I killed its spider.

Addendum: the previous one exploded after I tried moving, but now I have another one all around me. I guess there's a spot near the curve in which it simply cannot go.

Orbit of destruction is fun, there should be a spell that creates something like it. Battlesphere doesn't count!

Orb of Obstruction, level 3 poison/air/conjurations, creates a rotating ball that makes fog clouds after it, explodes into more fog and minor damage if it hits something after building enough momentum? Allows you to break LoS (so super-powerful) but unreliable because you don't exactly control the orb, and you can't cast it point blank because it fizzles if it can't travel a bit before bursting.

if your radius was smaller then the Schwarzschild radius then the orb would hit you

You can also make a orb circle you forever by moving in a certain way yourself. Downside is that you have to move.

Please, please, make it so if you melee an orb of destruction with a blunt object, you have a chance to reflect it.

This feels so wrong, and yet so right

and if you hit it with sharp weapon then it will split into two orbs

Jokes aside, a Sprint mode about interacting with different kinds of Orbs of Destruction would be something I'd play.

I regret recording this gif greatly because I did it with gyazo gif, which is terrible, AND with small screensize as well, so it has totally shitass potato quality(plus extra frames where nothing happens) yet has been reposted multiple times and is on the learndb because no one else has made a tiles orbit gif

time to go make a better version with gooncam I guess

And if you hit it with a magic dart, it will destroy the dungeon.

Not being a graphics connoisseur, it looks pretty good to me! Thank you for the entertainment. :D

Addendum: Not a connoisseur, but I do play Tiles.

And I miss the icon set from 0.18. :cry:
