[ANNOUNCE] GearHead v0.801 now available



GearHead is the roguelike CRPG of giant robots and kung-fu action.
The new release v0.803 is now available for download. You can get
the Windows executable and Free Pascal source code from:

Most of the changes this time around have been additions to the RPG
campaign. I really feel that the game is moving close to completion.
Here's a list of the highlights:

- Several new towns have been added to the RPG campaign, including a
pirate spaceport, a deadzone fortress, and a hot springs resort.

- New dungeons, new quests, new missions, and two new entry stories.

- Factions will now reward loyal service. Your can rise from being a
mere recruit all the way up to the rank of general. Rewards are given
for each promotion.

- There's a new music industry story. Your character can be awarded a
recording contract, and might even reach number one on the pop charts!

- The Codebreaking, Science, and Survival skills have each been made
more useful. Using Survival, it's now possible to hunt for food.

- The ending has been completely rewritten. Email me your victory file
if you complete the game and I'll add your name to the postcard list.

Try it out, and let me know what you think.
