Unfortunately I lost the domain and a lot of the web pages for some of my old games earlier this year due to myself being a dummy. I was able to bring RoboCaptain and Heavy Axe back online relatively easily.
Since it has co-op multiplayer, Dungeon Dual was a little trickier. It's also entirely written in CoffeeScript, which I have not touched since switching to TypeScript a few years ago. There's also a WebSockets server that handles the back-and-forth between the two players.
In any event, after a long afternoon of hacking, the original 7DRL version is back online in all of it's... glory?
It definitely plays a bit rough, but I must say I was rather surprised at how fun it was. It was cool to see a lot of that old gameplay working again. (like banish! which is still insanely overpowered)
