Is its turns limited? which is not common in Roguelikes.
I was playing and all of a sudden it says that "Refreshing Ram" and thus made a new map. what happened?

and is there a legend to read for monster abbreviations and their colors?

It says "Refreshing Ram" because in this game you're in the RAM and you must kill fake RAM controllers. So to make it more challenging it "refreshes" the map. Also I don't think it's turn limited

 

[test84]

but as i remember when it refreshes, it kills my character!

its a great game, I really enjoy it! but some enemis do some enormous random damage, is it a bug? like when my HP is at 30 and by a one hit it goes to -1241516 !

its high scores doesn't work either.

plus, whats the goal and main objective? whenever I try to clear all the map, it just refreshes.

one last thing, is it a bug that its healing sometimes doesnt work? (L + 'f') ?
most of the times I have to do the healing like 3 times to make it work once.

its good to mail the dev and inform him about the bugs (I did for last ones), maybe to see better releases.
