Introduction
NetHack is one of the oldest computer role-playing games still played and
developed. The latest version of the game, NetHack 3.4.0, was released in March 2002.
Some players may dislike the game's character-based graphics.
Newer versions of NetHack feature tile-based, somewhat
prettier graphics, but I decided to go even further. Thus, I decided to create
a new, graphics-intensive look for NetHack.
Falcon's Eye is a mouse-driven interface
for NetHack that enhances the visuals, audio and accessibility of the game,
yet retains all the original gameplay and game features.
Take a look at some screenshots.
I call the combination of the game and the interface NetHack - Falcon's Eye.

NetHack 3.4.0 has been released!
This means that the next version of Falcon's Eye (in
development) will be based on NetHack 3.4.0.
Note: you may able to use even the current version
of Falcon's Eye with NetHack 3.4.0. This may require minor
additions to NetHack 3.4.0 source files. Look through the
3.3.1-based source code distribution of NetHack - Falcon's Eye,
find the Falcon's Eye specific parts and add them into the 3.4.0
code. A more in-depth explanation may appear here later.
