Seems like the Mac build is still broken. Adding an .app at the end of the mac folder makes it launchable, but it says that it’s damaged after a short while. Here is the error message which I get in the Mac Console maybe it helps. Seems like a file is missing.
Non-fatal error enumerating at <private>, continuing: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=260 "The file “Extensions” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file." UserInfo={NSURL=Extensions/ -- file:///Users/bvoigtlaender/Downloads/itchZips/mac.app/Contents/, NSFilePath=/Users/bvoigtlaender/Downloads/itchZips/mac.app/Contents/Extensions, NSUnderlyingError=0x7fcb0ce36680 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"}}
I beat the Demo Version infinity wave. The build is final and I can survive every wave. Now I am at Stock 312. I have 20xrage & 15xhaste. I keep the money to increase my max health, otherwhise i can replace the money to another circle to obtain 21 turns in first round.
Resulting I have 19turns in first round dealing 1230630 damage over all, which I can beat any enemy.Yes 1,2Mill damage!!!!
After the 19 turns, i have 999 Armor too, unfortunatly the game dont allow me to exceed the 999 Armor, but its not necessary.
After a couple of tries this is my ultimativ build.
Can you increase the maximum number of saved games? I feel like 3 is too limiting, and it isn't stated anywhere that 3 is the limit, so I lost one of my best runs because of this. I like to keep saves at floor 9, so I can continue in endless with any build if I feel like it.
Also, the "continue" menu screen can be revamped to allow for more saves without as much scrolling - there is currently too much wasted space. I think a 3x2 grid will look and feel much better - each tile in the grid would have a thumbnail (of the inventory), character and game mode above, floor and level below. Scrollbar on the side if there are more than 6 saves.
Maybe have a "maximum number of saves" slider in the settings, or just have it at infinite. People can just manually delete the saves they don't need or use the "delete save on death" option for a more roguelike experience.
I ended up dying with this on floor 13, it was a good run and my weapon ended up dealing 264 damage per hit. it was an ethereal staff, wich replaced itself with an ethereal blade upon use. The ethereal blade would also create an ethereal staff when destroyed. This caused the negative effects of the bombstone and hourglass to be ignored, giving me a 800 percent multiplier whith barely any drawbacks.
Good day - been really enjoying backpack hero since I saw it on ManyATrueNerd - almost 120 hours of play time :) I have run into a potential bug on v0.31.4b - if you have the barbell and the lizard king sword, the energy reduction from LKS is undone at the start of each turn, even though it says "reduces by one this combat".
e.g. I have the jagged sword, it costs 2. I use LKS (at a cost of 3), jagged sword now costs 1. End turn, jagged sword is back to 2.
yeah, I keep commenting/replying to people on their posts complaining about ads and redirect them to here or the steam page! i hope it gets resolved permanently
First, I bought the game a few days ago on steam and it's awesome, my sleep schedule has suffered which is always a great sign. But, I need to vent and make a suggestion about 1 thing.
I just lost a game by leaving 2 pets behind after reorganizing my bag. "Left-click>Warn me before leaving this on the ground" would be a decent quality of life improvement. Sometime it gets cluttered and it's easy to just forget something, triple-checking is a skill but not something I would consider fun gameplay.
I'm bad a itch.io, discord and steam community, sorry if this have been discussed many times already.
This is a great suggestion, and one we should have done a while ago (I mean it is already in place on cr8!) we will for sure add many many more QoL features in the coming weeks.
I play on the browser version as well because I don't have the money nor a device that can run the downloaded version trust me bows and cleavers are the strongest builds I've seen
a couple of days ago I posted a comment saying I can't rotate items a person responded asking me about but I just replied now so I'm reposting the comment
is anyone else game bugged to where you can flip items (this is in the paid version, not this demo
(note:if I use the rotate button in settings it says translation key not found)
We may update the web version again at some point, but for now our focus is on the desktop version! It's available on Itch and Steam! And there's way more challenging modes including challenge runs and harder difficulty levels.
tried to download the mac version; it unzipped into a folder named "itchzips" containing "mac", which had "contents" which had the actual game. running the game threw an error that said the file was damaged. what?
good job mate, I see you had a hard boring way to go through. I am currently at wave 312 with currently 1,2Mill damage sumed up over 19 turns. I see on your build you had some potential to increase the damage furthermore. (for eg.: using the smarag braclet & adding more tier1-curses to addding more additional turns)
I saw this game a few months ago on a youtube channel and thought nothing of it since it was just background noise as I worked. Then it popped up again last week while I was at home and I payed more attention to it. Then I bought it on steam and I haven't had a good night's sleep since. I've also gotten 3 other friends addicted as well. This game is truly amazing! The possibilities are endless! And the different characters and play styles are great. I'm a CR-8 fan, because of the heavy planning required, but my one friend likes Tote for the randomness challenge and another likes Satchel for the pocket madness.
I really like how all of the characters are named after types of holding container. I don't know if you plan on more characters, but I think if you are, someone named Chester (or Chest R.) would be cool.

Will there are mobile version?? Because i really want to play this game in everywhere
You can play it from the browser on mobile.
No it says Mobile doesnt supports web gl and i want play it offline it would be better if it has a original app :thumbsup:
Ew furry.
Fun game. 9/10
I personally get 250 damage minus's on the club then throw the hourglass away. You won't need it ever again!
Dude, rage on a hourglass-nerfed berserker club is cracked! All you need is belt of knives and a weapon that can hit all and your set.
Resulting I have 19turns in first round dealing 1230630 damage over all, which I can beat any enemy.Yes 1,2Mill damage!!!!

hey forgive me if im wrong but, wouldnt just 2 king cleavers do the same thing? it seems like they both would make a cascade of never ending cleavers
nah they dont loop on themselves bcs dev thought of that
correct they loop just once.
Amazing game! I do have a suggestion though.

fun fact the peridot on weapons that give the player self inflincted poison upgrades the poison
This is the Best rpg game i ever seen musics, characters, all are truly amazing

I love this game to death.
Ooh, I never though of using ethereal to get around the hourglass/bombstone. Good idea!
Beat the game with this!
I wonder if you could put the demo link to download by itch.io app, plase

I think someone stole your idea
just wanted to bring this to your attention, been enjoying playing
Yeah i think someone downloaded or just ripped the code and just converted the code
So frustrating! We have issued several complaints to Google - and it has been removed twice now. But they keep reposting it!
It is sad to see such a creative idea get stolen .
yeah, I keep commenting/replying to people on their posts complaining about ads and redirect them to here or the steam page! i hope it gets resolved permanently
i have been playing this game literally everyday for the past 2 months and i need to buy the whole version

my rotation issue has been fixed in beta branch thx dew :D
Cool Game!
I like the Style and the way the weapons work
(although I'm pretty sure bow and arrows kinda stink... :/)
perhaps you are using the bows wrong, try playing as a glass cannon and having scaling items hit as many arrows as possible
they end up being some of the strongest weapons in the game as far as my experience goes
I prob am due to my stupidity
Btw this is on Browser
I play on the browser version as well because I don't have the money nor a device that can run the downloaded version trust me bows and cleavers are the strongest builds I've seen
true, but they take so long to set up, and if you dont have good rng, its a loss real fast

How do you flip items?
arrow keys
so eating food doesn't refill health?
Some food does! You need to read the effects of the particular item!
Is there a way to get early versions of this game I feel like it was much harder then.
same

Are cleaver runs still usable to get to 1000+ or was the pavise nerf too hard.
did they remove Mathew
He's still in there! You can press M to access him from the main menu. After you lose a run the option should be available on the main screen
thank you
died on floor 13 to not having enough block
I used a translation tool, so I apologize if the text is not correct.
Is it possible to post videos or live-stream Backpack Hero on youtube or twitch?
Also, is it possible to monetize them?
Sure! We love the views! Go ahead!
ah, this truly is one of the builds of all time
tried to download the mac version; it unzipped into a folder named "itchzips" containing "mac", which had "contents" which had the actual game. running the game threw an error that said the file was damaged. what?
windows works fine
Weird. We'll look into the mac build
thank you!
renaming mac to mac.app and `xattr -cr mac.app` fixed it for me
is anyone else game bugged to where you can flip items (this is in the paid version not this demo

Finally reach 1 million damage on floor 504!!!

wait serlsiy
Beat Grandmaster with this setup. I will see how far I get

glad you are enjoying the game! we plan to add four more characters for a total of nine playable ones!
honestly op
If you use shivs with the ring the shivs can do 100 dmg each
best run I've had so far
