I am sure there are plenty of Nethack fans around, Vulture is an isometric graphical interface for the roguelike engine: NetHack and it's trying to get on Steam.
You can actually download it for free from the official site right now. I do wish they put up a standard tar zipped file though, .debs are annoying.
About
This game is and always will be completely FREE on steam as it is elsewhere, not even in-game micro-transactions or anything similar. It's simply FREE, download it, play it.
NetHack is a turn-based strategic single-player Roguelike dungeon crawler who's development started in 1987 and has evolved since then. Vulture is a 2D Isometric graphical interface to the rich world of NetHack.
Multiple Classes, completely different dungeon layout each game, potions, magic, weapons all with differing effects each and every time you play. Large community of players who've been playing NetHack for many many years.
This is NOT your basic hack-and-slash, you'll need to stop, think, and have patience. There will be times when you think there's simply no way you can survive, but learning how all the various pickups work and interact with each other in the game is a lot of the fun. Don't simply assume that the obvious use is the only use ... for anything ... or anyone you might meet.
The amulet of Yendor is with in your reach ....
So, give it a vote and spread some Nethack onto Steam! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I encourage everyone to vote against this. If you are on #rgrd on QuakeNet or listen to Roguelike Radio (an excellent podcast), you know that NetHack has some very serious design flaws that are partially a product of how it was developed, and partially due to its age (it's a 'second generation' roguelike through and through).
At this point, it really brings down the roguelike genere. That is why I recommend against allowing this through. Brogue and Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup are much better examples of roguelikes and very much exist in the third geneation. In defence of good game design and gameplay, I recommend against voting in NetHack.
