Cogmind is modern Roguelike Gameing and it's pretty great. Developed by Josh Ge aka Grid Sage Games. You're a little robot trying to escape from a sentient robot factory, there's lots of cool items and enemies and side-story/meta-narrative stuff going on. give it a shot!

Playing it on NixOS with wrapWine

I tried to make a read-only derivation for this, but the exe seems like it needs a working directory which it can write to and which contains the game assets. oh well. For now i'll run it out of my sync directory.

{ pkgs, stdenv, lib }:

let
  wrapWine = (pkgs.callPackage ../lib/wrapWine.nix {});
  version = "Beta 12";
in wrapWine {
  name = "cogmind";
  executable = "$HOME/sync/COGMIND (${version})/COGMIND.exe";
  chdir = "$HOME/sync/COGMIND (${version})/";
  tricks = [ "vcrun2010" ];
  }

This is installed through Arroyo Home Manager:

{ pkgs, ... }:

{
  home.packages = [ pkgs.cogmind ];
}
