Apologies to do the same thing as Scott from Grogpod, I also couldn't find any other way to get in touch ^_^;;
I'm one of the organizers of Roguelike Celebration, a community-generated weekend of talks, games, and conversations ranging from the history and design of ‘traditional’ roguelikes, to modern experimentation and innovation in the broad procedural and roguelike space. I saw your release celebrating Larn's 40th birthday, which was exciting since we've been really hoping to get a Larn talk for ages, it's such a foundational roguelike!
If you'd be open to giving a talk our call for proposals is open until July 19th, you can find more details on our website. We also have the option of doing a more fireside chat or interview type format at our preview event on Sept 13th, if you wouldn't have time to prepare a talk, or don't have a topic in mind.
Given that we haven't had any talk focused on Larn yet it's quite open-ended in terms of talking about elements that make it unique, the experience of maintaining it after all this time, your specific choices for the 40th anniversary and how you balance making changes with staying true to the original experience... lots of potential topics!
If this would be of interest and you have any questions or want to bounce ideas of us, you can reach me and the rest of the team at contact@roguelike.club. Thanks for your time, do feel free to remove this after you see it so it's not distracting from any real issues in the repo, haha.
Cheers,
- Alexei and the Roguelike Celebration Team
