Sorry if this gets asked all the time but I'm really new to this game, and rogue-like games in general. I'm having alot of fun so far but in the 30 odd characters I've made I've never got past level 8. It seems that sometimes I just get an unlucky turn of events and there is nothing I can do to keep myself from dying. I'm sure this isn't really the case so I came to the forums wondering if there was a good guide to how to get started in the game, and etc.
I'm slowly working my way through the manual, and I always refer to the keyboard bindings to see if there is something I"m missing. But in the end I'm still pretty lost. Is there a good reference guide I could use? Thanks.
