No, this is far, far beyond what a p8 game can do. Iām pretty sure this is Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. https://crawl.develz.org/

Looks like a version of Linleyās Dungeon Crawl, with a tileset instead of ncurses graphics.
Edit: Oh, somebody said that already.
Update. Itās finally here! Itās actually here!

I should be getting mine tomorrow. I just paid the import taxes which was 34.86 euros.
And today Iāll go buy the 18650 batteries.
Edit: got it already today, 120 days after ordering.

so the import tax you speak ofā¦ is that a european import tax only? anyone know if the United States has such a thing? granted, short of alliexpress, I donāt usually buy things that get imported from other countries directly.

I didnāt pay any additional fees when I bought the DevTerm - but the US has borrowed 1 trillion dollars (US) from China around 2016 so Iād say the us has waived all dutiesā¦ (also why 2-way radioās etc get approval from us radio licensing without scrutiny and are duty free as well)
In the US in the northeast. I just got my uConsole A06 on Monday via DHL. No duties were required. Same experience with the DevTerm w.r.t. extra duties.
So far I am very happy with the uConsole. I think the change to a metal body was worth the extra wait (total 14 months).

EU has a different tax structure than the US - they have VAT Value Added Tax - like a sales tax but now they have an income tax as well - if the US every gets tricked into a federal sales tax they will be sure to add an income tax back after a period of timeā¦

Alex made another update
Tldr - current batch being made most likely be sent after lunar new year but will be sent with the following batch (1k worth of orders overall)
It was 24% Value Added Tax (VAT) for price of product and postages that I had to pay when package came to Finland.

well - theyāve hit a snag on delivery of my orderā¦ not the end of the world but the two orders the A-06 and the R-01 have been separated - the R-01 order is in my state but the other package is still stuck where it arrivedā¦ so Iāll receive R-01 by Thursday or FRiday and the A-06 Saturday/Sunday - intent was to use the R-01 for spare parts but Iāll probably build it and use it for terminal use onlyā¦ then power it down when the A-06 gets here and keep it in reserve for spare parts.

I managed to run the Debian version of Steam on the CM4 with Box86 and Box64. I donāt know if Iād recommend going through the process, as it took a while to get working and Steamās interface is sloooow.
I was able to get FTL up and running decently, though without audio.
