I still didn't play some great games of this genre that I wanted. Currently my favorites are The Binding of Isaac and Don't Starve

I would say Dungeons of Dredmor, but if I'm correct that one is a roguelike, not a roguelite.

So I'll go with Rogue Legacy, even though I really suck at it and haven't even beaten the 1st boss yet after 10 hours

It's like a Roguelike but you usually don't lose everything when you die because you can unlock stuff that you can use for the next try like in FTL or you can level your character like in Rogue Legacy and stuff like this.

Bristol Type 192 Belvedere

The Bristol Type 192 Belvedere was a British twin-engine, tandem rotor military helicopter built by the Bristol Aeroplane Company. It was designed for a variety of transport roles including troop transport, supply dropping and casualty evacuation. It was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF) from 1961 to 1969.

Design and development

The Belvedere was based on the Bristol Type 173 10-seat (later 16-seat) civilian helicopter which first flew on 3 January 1952. The 173 project was cancelled in 1956 and Bristol spent time on the Type 191 and Type 193 to Royal Navy and Royal Canadian Navy specifications. These two naval variants were cancelled, but the RAF expressed an interest in the aircraft and the Type 192 "Belvedere" was created. Three Type 191 airframes were almost complete when the order was cancelled, but they were used to aid the development of the Type 192. The first two were used as test rigs for the new Napier Gazelle engines and the third was used for fatigue tests.

The Type 192 shared some of its design features with the cancelled naval variants, which made it less than ideal for transporting troops. The front undercarriage was unusually tall, originally designed to give adequate clearance for loading torpedoes underneath the fuselage in the anti-submarine warfare role. This left the main passenger and cargo door 4 feet (1.2 m) above the ground. The engines were placed at either end of the cabin, precluding the possibility of a rear access ramp, which might have been present in a purpose-designed troop transport (such as the contemporary Boeing CH-47 Chinook). To provide access to the cabin from the cockpit there was a small gangway past the engine that resulted in a bulge on the port side of the fuselage.

The first Type 192 prototype XG447 flew on 5 July 1958 with tandem wooden rotor blades, a completely manual control system and a castored, fixed quadricycle undercarriage. From the fifth prototype, the rotors fitted were all-metal, 4 bladed units. Production model controls and instruments allowed night operations. The prototype machines had an upwards-hinged main passenger door, which was prone to being slammed shut by the downwash from the rotors. This was replaced by a sliding door on the later aircraft.

26 Belvederes were built entering service as the Belvedere HC Mark 1. The Belvederes were originally designed for use with the Royal Navy but were later adapted to carry 18 fully equipped troops with a total load capacity of 6,000 lb (2,700 kg). The two rotors were synchronised through a shaft to prevent blade collision, allowing the aircraft to operate through only one engine in the event of an emergency.

Bristol attempted to market a civilian variant of the helicopter, designated the Type 192C. The 192C would have had seats for 24 passengers and was aimed at intercity services. To demonstrate the aircraft's potential, Bristol chief test pilot Charles "Sox" Hosegood set the London–Paris and Paris–London speed records in May 1961 in a Belvedere. However, no orders were placed for the 192C.


Operational history

The first prototype Belvedere went to the Belvedere Trials Unit at RAF Odiham, which was subsequently reformed as No. 66 Squadron RAF in 1961. Engine starter problems caused trouble early on but operational deployment continued. The prototype saw service in Europe, Africa, Southern Arabia and Borneo. XG447 was broken up at Boscombe Down on 7 August 1966.

In June 1960 the 5th prototype, XG452 set a speed record of 130 mph (210 km/h) between Gatwick and Tripoli. In 1962 another Belvedere lowered the spire onto the new Coventry Cathedral.

As well as 66 Squadron, the type was deployed to 72 Squadron in 1961 and 26 Squadron in 1962, all at RAF Odiham. 26 Squadron later transferred to RAF Khormaksar where it disbanded in November 1965. The helicopters were transferred by HMS Albion to Singapore to join 66 Squadron until the squadron was disbanded in 1969. 72 Squadron kept its Belvederes until August 1964 when it exchanged them for Westland Wessex.

The RAF Belvederes were involved in combat in Aden Emergency and Borneo (during the Indonesia–Malaysia confrontation).

I'm always confusing the Terms Roguelite and Roguelike ..... Well they only games I played (and enjoyed) in that direction are:

  • One Way Heroics: It is more fun one should think, a lot of stuff to do, multiple endings .... I should buy the add-on
  • Our Darker Purpose: I could never get comfortable with the graphic (and humour style) of BOI, so I was glad as I found this game. It has a really interesting lore and great gameplay. Also an interesting graphic style
  • Teleglitch: I like the game but I'm not sure if I will ever even beat it ... it is easily the hardest game in my library and I have some really hard games in there

The main criteria used to define a roguelike are determined by the Berlin Interpretation. Roguelike literally means like-Rogue, which was the first game of its' kind developed in 1980. Roguelite is a common term used to label games that have roguelike elements, but are not true roguelikes by the definition.

Rogue Legacy, is my all-time favorite.
Binding of Isaac, FTL, One Way Heroics, Nuclear Throne and this very Diehard Dungeon are worth mentioning too.
