this is not a game that should be on this platform solely without full gamepad support. You need to allow us to download it. Bugs are less of an issue on windows. Also the game rewards very little for level of immediate difficulty and some of the imbalance players face. The damage done to the hero IS ALOT and it scales up way too fast. You need to raise the drop rates of everything, and the gold, exp drops are so little it will take a grind session like no other to get anywhere. I played for hours and earned 5 gold. Please fix this game because it has the kind of promise and special thing that VS had. It is amazing. You just need to let us feel good about what we earn and want to play more. Personally when i saw the speed of which I leveld and the gold/currency earned..I didnt want to play anymore for a moment out of frustration lol. I found that the controls were really hard and felt wonky without proper gamepad support and the inability to run it on my windows. Otherwise I really want to play and have fun. If you put this on Steam you would make a killing when this goes for sale. In EA or demo stage..you would get alot of community support and ideas/help to shape this game to where it should be. Trust me....this game could blow up the genre and make other games out now cry in the wake of its' success.
Thanks a lot for all the feedback and compliments, especially in your second comment below. Really curious about your dev friend you mentioned, completely understand not wanting to mention his name here but if you want feel free to leave your discord and maybe connect us. Sounds like I could learn a lot from him.
I'll go over your points 1 by 1:
- Gamepad support - If more people ask for it I'll consider it, but not planning on it as of now.
- Downloadable version - Unless you're on firefox which could cause issues, the web version should work perfectly fine(lmk about any bug you encounter and I'll fix it tho). Still, if you prefer a PC build, happy to send you one privately if you'd share your discord. I just think most people won't bother downloading it while it runs on browser.
- Low rewards - Most feedback has actually been the opposite, which is why almost every devlog(and updates that don't appear in devlogs) nerfs them. Even now, gold from quests(~25g each) and runs(30g lowest diff) adds up fast. Getting just 5g in hours sounds super unlucky even just from drops. I definitely suggest doing more quests and completing runs tho as those are the main non RNG sources.
- Controls - What exactly felt off? The way movement handles or just the keybinds? If it's the keybinds themselves, you can rebind them in the menu. If it's the feel, lmk and I'll definitely look to improve that.
Again, really appreciate the feedback. Saying this could blow up the genre is wild, especially with how good other games in it already are so thanks again.
Hi,
not OP, and I've just found the game due to a post on reddit.
Personally I would absolutely download it and use a gamepad with it - most of all as this is the kinda of game that is, to me, a "Steam Deck game".
Not sure if this is a proper place to ask, but... any plans to bring it to steam in the future?
Thanks
Edit: Also, doesn't matter which monitor I use (2k60 or 1080p240) once I put the game in fullscreen its framerate drops drastically, if I had to guess it goes to around 15-20 fps while fullscreen (using Opera).
Heya!
Feedback is always appreciated, whether here rediit or anywhere else :D
Gamepad support might be added in the future, but I'm not actively developing the game right now, it's more like bursts of motivation to push an update once in a while so when I get on the next one I'll likely look into that. Bugs and small tweaks I tend to fix asap but larger suggestions might take a while before making it in(feel free to send them my way tho!).
For the framerate issue, I think it'd be hardware acceleration being disabled in opera, try enabling it and if that doesn't work try chrome and make sure hardware acceleration is enabled on it. Only thing is - if it happens in specific gameplay moments, that's a red flag so lmk if that's the case and I'll look into it asap.
Thanks again for trying the game and the feedback, super appreciated!
