Hellcrawl is pretty lit, it actually makes playing crawl exciting and suspenseful as opposed to the complete and utter snoozefest that vanilla crawl is.

What's different between Hellcrawl and regular Crawl? I've only played vanilla 0.20 Crawl.
Kevin Powell
yeah I played it too the other day and I really love that streamlined experience

How's it streamlined? I just learned the manual skill allocation tech, and it's pretty tedious and annoying to do, usually.
stairs are basically hatches, once you're on a floor you can't go back up. This punishes you pretty heavily for sloppy play, and makes bad encounters pretty interesting to play out since you can't just retreat to a staircase and stairdance for eternity anymore.
No lair or orc, dungeon goes to 15 where you can choose between orc, vaults, or depths which all contain certain rune branches and all link between each other. And, the magic background spells got changed quite heavily, especially AE.

Can I get a download link or link to all the changes it's made from the main branch?
