I would like to see this fun game on the ds:)
Thanks:)
http://egoboo.sourceforge.net/
"Egoboo is a 3d dungeon crawling adventure in the spirit of NetHack.
It uses OpenGL and SDL. It should run on any Wintel, Unix, and MacOS X system."

You could try to fix the networking to to make it multi-player....
I have good controls :
Start - Pause (or Start + Select - Return to main menu)
X- Scroll Right Weapons
Y- Scroll Left Weapons
D-pad - Move
Right Trigger - Use Right Weapon
Left Trigger - Use Left Weapon
A - Drop Right Weapon
B - Drop Left Weapon
or otherwise
program the touchscreen to be movable...

Many of those screenshots show the game running on the developer's PC at ~18 FPS.

I think there might be some performance issues.....

Well if you make it sorta like Tassu's Worldgen wouldn't it be better?
the graphics are seemingly alike?

Although here I was thinking 2D would've been okay, I quote myself:

Instead of a full blown MMO, just kind of a cross between Nethack and Gauntlet. (meaning more depth than Gauntlet, but more action-oriented then Nethack)
Then after thats finished add 8 player wifi ;)

We really need a "homebrew requests" forum so shit like this isn't cluttering up the area where actual developers come to talk about actual dev-related stuff...

I've played Egoboo on systems using an Intel i815 type ob-board graphics chipset and it runs fine. Graphically it's quite simple actually.

Bleh, I didn't enjoy it much, it was a little arb...

I don't know anything about the ds except that it's fun to play :P
