Hey, dev here! Thank you so much Olexa, for playing our game. We knew this is perfect fit your your content while we were making it. The game is very raw right now, you can see some enemy illustrations are still placeholders, and balance needs a lot of work. We originally planned to release the demo for just 1 week during the Deckbuilders Fest, but the reception from the community was higher than we expected, so we left the demo indefinitely. Thank you for the feedbacks too, definitely aligns with our plans. The build you played has 23 items. But we have 78 items planned in our spreadsheet right now, and we will add more mechanics and more items onto it, planning 150 items in the release. I'm also aware the fun of the game is making crazy inventory combos. That's the most fun part of the game, so we will focus on that. Also I think we over-did it in terms of the ease to play with Jack, since it's the first character, it is easier and more approachable to play with, tho we will balance that too. I hope you give it another try with our upcoming Next Fest June update on the demo, I promise it will satisfy all the feedback you mentioned. We will also release a balance update tonight or sunday morning, so wishlist it and give it a try tomorrow evening maybe, it will be more fun :)

Just tried the demo, I got 2 sets of demon's horns and ended up rolling so many dice the game broke. The button down the bottom said "roll (85)", but no matter how many times I rolled, it still said 85. I could get more dice to appear by moving the dice that had already been rolled and then pressing roll, but this still didn't cause the roll number to decrease. Past a certain point, when I used red dice I stopped gaining health (my companion was on 117 and I was on 119). Basically, with no option to go next turn, I was locked out of the game. Hope this report helps :)

Hello yes The garlic and similar items don't break your farming because they activate on stage start. Stages are basically each combat, not each round.

This game has an interesting idea, but definitely needs more development. You were able to figure out the best strategy and trivialize the game's difficulty level within 10 minutes, and you weren't even playing optimally.

The jack of all shit, bar none

I broke this game. I was playing as Jack and had an item that would give me an extra 2 dice rolls when I used my skill, and then I infinitely used my skill until I had 100 dice rolls at a time, which then rolled 25-30 dice, and when I couldn't use all the dice, the button was stuck on 'Roll' and I could not end the round even when all the enemies were dead.

That heal at the end was clutch

As someone who's been into roguelikes for a while, but became OBSESSED with them recently, I'm so glad to find people like you who find them, try them and share the gameplay, you just earned a sub and thank you, I'm loving your videos so far, and I love the fact that I can find these games so easily

Watching you play this game I realized we need a backgammon roguelike

How would that even work lol

I also think you shouldn't be able to heal above the characters starting health. As it is you could farm health dice and as we saw get a character to well over 100 health. There also needs to be some type of limit to how many dice/rolls a player can take before their turn ends because some of those turns were near infinite. There never felt like there was a single time I was ever in danger of actually dying.

The faint and high beeping sound in the background made me freak out, it's the same pitch as when an apartment upstairs has the smoke detector going!

@@OlexaYT well definitely wish you luck. Its a very challenging game, in most cases you will be avoiding that dice combat. Have fun I compare the game mostly with Organ Trail, with a sanity meter. Learn what ancient curses are worth robbing a temple over and pissing of the native people.

Wow just stated playing the updated demo, and seeing where it came from it has come a long way already! Enjoying the demo

This looks so cool. Hope they improve with cool items, synergies and monsters and we could be up to an amazing game

"Healing" also just being "Increase Max HP" is interesting, but counterintuitive and not very well explained.

Anyone else going crazy that Olexa didn't click the exclamation point inventory button. I kept thinking there might be a whole additional mechanic like crafting he was skipping.

Ok but actually this game looks incredible

Definitely has potential

Bro played the scrooge class

The characters special ability should only work once per round. Just sayin'. Also, the dungeon master is not enough of a deterrent, since he does practically nothing. He should need dice to be defeated, and should attack for like 5.

this game has a _lot_ of potential, but it's WAY too bare bones at the moment. There's a lot of UX that needs to be added, like what items did you get when you used the girls skill? Also they need hotkeys to make moving die easier. Like hold C and click on a die moves it to your characters slots, holding A puts it in your ally skill. Holding G and clicking puts in in the appropriate gold slot. Stuff like that. Also WAYY more items, WAAYYY more enemies etc. Maybe equip able gear that could add additional skills etc. It's waayyy to tedious to add dice to slots, like when rolling for those 1's my god that was painful.

the game is out, gonna try it?

Anyone else confused by the serpent avatar?

Is there cheese if not, i am not getting the game

i got a build on my second run that let me get 5 rolls one fight, 18 the next, 55 the next, and i have yet to go past that. check the latest video i posted for how i did it (demon horns + starter character)

hewwo

Real bummer that the companions are temporary, but I otherwise like the bones of the game so far.

Important note: NEVER go with Olexa on a treasure hunt (⊙_⊙;) Sorry, but «Right and Down and Dice» looks better in all aspects: each enemy has a skill, you have more skills, relics, consumable items, kinds of dice, path choices.

Love dice-roguelikes/roguelites, but the difference between roguelike and roguelite is just ... ununderstandable.

@SrKing-dm4ku

2 ай бұрын

The difference depends on the crowd! For most people, including Olexa (I believe??) roguelites have more meta-progression (cross-run upgrades) and roguelikes have close to none. For fans of classic roguelikes, roguelikes are dungeon crawlers, topdown and turn based, and roguelites are everything else. But if you use the common definition, and just say “classic roguelikes” to talk about these, people will get what you mean.

@guiltfiend

2 ай бұрын

In roguelikes, you start each run completely fresh. You die - the run's over. Start another one. And start fresh. You don't keep anything from previous runs. In Hades and Dead Cells, for example - two great roguelites - you can buy upgrades to make your future runs easier. That's all there is to it. Though if you ask me, neither modern roguelikes nor roguelites have much in common with what we used to call roguelikes like 10 years ago, and they certainly have nothing to do with Rogue. But that's a whole different topic...
