So... I see there is still some activity in the T-Engine 2 and 3 boards. Near as I can tell, its mostly cos of T-Engine 4 is a different beast, not nearly as 'hardcore' or anything.
I suggest a 'classic' mode T-Engine. Not just ToME, but a replacement for the mainmenu module as well that tones down graphics abit and ascii-fies things abit more, like is expected of earlier T-Engines.
I think a few subtle changes can help alot in this respect. Default to be a 16x16 ASCII font instead of graphics, dialog borders to be ='s instead. Not sure what to do about the minimap...
Will likely have to be a separate download for the modified mainmenu module, I dunno.
This is of course said half-jokingly, and low priority if done, but just wanted to get this out there.
Classic Mode T-Engine4

Re: Classic Mode T-Engine4
Well the main menu is actualyl a module, very easy to replace
The dialog engine could be rewritten to use just chars easily and modules that want it could use it instead I suppose.
It's quite easy just some duplicate work that I'm not willing to make yet because i want to make the game working first but people are encourraged to send in patches
