Play Dragon Warrior Clone (requires Java 1.5 or greater).

Source code (Subversion)

This Dragon Warrior clone was the third game I wrote using my Java Game Engine, after a network-enabled multiplayer pong game and a pool game with fairly bad physics.

I started out by making a tile-based addon for the game engine.
I also made a few utilities to help me extract the icons from maps I found online, and also recreate those maps.
Here are a few helpful websites I found - particularly The Dragon's Den at Woodus.com

Unfortunately, after a lot of very fast (and surprisingly successful!) development, a few bugs eventually started to creep in (and I got bored), so I stopped development before writing the battle system.

If I ever pick this up again, it will probably start with a rewrite of the game engine. Most likely, much of the Dragon Warrior code would also be rewritten.
