About GRA


Grand Rogue Auto is an attempt at writing a GTA themed graphical roguelike. The setting takes place in a procedurally generated modern city (populated with citizens, shops, buildings of several kind,…) and its neighborhood. The player will gain money by completing random missions, wreaking havoc, and working for different factions. This money can be used to buy ammo, weaponry, armors, items, locations and so on. The goal of this project is to mix the open-ended aspect of GTA with the complexity and replay value of roguelike games.

However, GRA is not only a game, it's an engine designed to handle a massive amount of NPC in an large environment. As a result, the game is easily modifiable using the Modding menu. Basically, all the content beside the game's rules can be altered. Custom-made items, buildings, factions and even NPC can be incorporated into new games with ease.
