oh, also hotkeys for selecting spells would be really nice

saw the updates, and gave it a go again!

i think a big thing is that block doesn't scale as well as damage. the only way you can survive act 5 attacks is by the disable modifiers or a growth boost spell. 

i thought the counter mechanic was really cool, but it's pretty ineffective lategame; maybe it could scale based on the amount of block, or the amount of damage blocked?

i'd also like to see some more deck manipulation mechanics. enemies adding trash spells for the combat, spells that stay in the timeline, spells that return to your hand guaranteed, etc. it'd be a good counter to just thinning down the deck to around 5 cards from 2 shops.  

anyways, still really cool, obviously still in development but just my thoughts. hopefully i'll continue to see updates in my feed :3

really good! i loved the gameplay, but the visauls were super charming as well. loved the physics/particle effects that contrasted with the cute style. impact frames on the final boss were super cool too.

really like the atmosphere and such!

currently stuck on getting the highscore from the dino clone, the first jump is really hard because it's slow at first and i think the walking animation makes it so that you only have a shot when you're on a frame where your arms aren't out :/ i've gotten to 11 once and then i keep failing at 0...

also, is the computer at the start referencing the EyeOS game?

yeah, sorry it wasn't clear. i understand if it doesn't get implemented, accessibility isn't always the first priority for demos

also maybe some setting to turn down the intensity of the modifiers?

loved it! really nice twist on the deckbuilding roguelikes. coming from sts, though, felt pretty easy.

deck: conjure with growth, 3 block cards with disable

relics: lifesteal, overheal, create one more spell, created dice are 100% stronger

maybe overheal should disappear at the end of the turn?

merchants are too op earlygame. get 2 removes and a better card for free, up to 6 times?? actually busted. maybe there should be currency for that? also, i couldn't tell which spells were rare.

but yeah, good stuff! looking forward to more

my solution was 

YW1uZXNpYQ==

in base64 :3

wish there was a bit more explanation, but it was really fun!!

beautiful. one might complain about the pacing towards the end, but honestly? i think it's really nice to kind of show how everything is slowly disappearing and that it's time to end.

i wish you could say goodbye to everyone :< i woke up saying it wasn't time yet, but didn't get any special dialogue when talking to anyone (especially surprising from lucian, since we talked about sleeping already)

great game, 10/10 this is art

i don't watch hololive, but it was still pretty fun! i wish you could disable the animations/cutscenes when interacting with the characters, though... does get annoying getting interrupted every second when going at really fast speeds.

figured it out! 

hint: look at the start of every run :3

i love all of your games! they're cute but challenging. 

i got all 3 endings, but i don't get the final ending. i've defeated all the bosses... any help?

beautiful stuff! really enjoyed the simplicity and retro feel of this game. hard, but also lenient since damage persists after deaths. i think my favorite parts were the little bits of lore... who really is the final boss? what do our death messages mean? why do we get some items like a locket at the end? what are the little messages on those small specks we can pick up? a few things are fleshed out with environmental storytelling, and i'd love to see more.

i think i also got stuck once by dying on the first tile on the right room after the first room, and couldn't shatter the gravestone from the first room. otherwise, no bugs :3 

ah, the opening to the north wasn't clear to me... i did see the sign saying "North: ???" but wasn't sure how to get there. got it, been enjoying the game <3 will post when i finish

this game is really cute!! i'm kind of stuck getting the last fish power though. i'm missing the 5th one (or the first one on the second row) in the menu... i have the first 3 items on the first row and all the items on the second row. what am i missing? can't wait to get all the ducks to explore the bathtub...

Ah, I see. Thank you!

Yeah, I talked to him and he said the password was (rot 13) xvat ehyr in Atlantean. Two people near the waterfall said the word for (rot 13) xvat in Atlantean was (rot 13) infvyvnf and the word for (rot 13) ehyr in Atlantean was (rot 13) xbabanf. It still didn't work..?

Love the artstyle and how useful the Investico. Journal was! One thing though, I'm stuck at getting through the king. I know a character said it was a combination of words, and I tried (rot13) infvyvnfxbabanf but it didn't work. Did I input it incorrectly or do I just have the wrong words?

this was really fun! i loved the different enemies/types and how you had to actually think about taking chances. the cooking system was also great with the ingredient points. the art was great, and the characters were lovable.

a few problems i've encountered so far:

• the bosses are unfair sometimes to the point of being unbeatable. if the boss summons the wheat, you can't deal any damage to the boss or kill the minions fast enough before another tank is summoned. if the boss summons the sugar skulls/bees, they buff so much that you can't focus on the boss. 
• recipes at the start should be more simple, because sometimes the needed enemies don't spawn before the boss
• the amount of runs i've lost because i've failed the 95% chance to harvest the lowest tier for an ingredient and couldn't make food to heal/avoid starving is too high, should start at 100% on first turn of corpse spawn
• the map generation is weird sometimes, you often trigger aggro for 2 encounters and get absolutely demolished. also i spawned in a way where the only way to proceed was blocked by the ladder?
• watchermelons too op

suggestions:

• enemies should be weaker at start
• have a "wait turn" feature?
• somehow save progress (remember recipes, be able to start on highest unlocked floor) because you die often

but overall really fun! still playing through it, haven't gotten past the second level yet.

what was i saying? anyways, i'm almost done maxing out the improvements! now that i mention it, i don't completely know how or why i started doing it, though. but you should play too! it's pretty fun :>

i really liked this game! the grenade launcher and thumper definitely felt overpowered, though. 

how do i beat the boss? do i have to use the "powerup" that kills everything? 

i also found the parody of the metaprogression improvements hilarious. (yes, filling the void does make me happy)

oh, thank you! i should have figured this out. for those who didn't get it yet:

hint (rot-13):  jung ner bgure jbeqf sbe zhfuebbz?

answer (rot-13): purpx gur engr ohggba va gur gbc evtug bs gur vgpu vb cntr :>

the puzzles were so well-designed and the story was really good

i need more but i'm too dumb to figure out the password in the title page ;-;

 

I really liked the game! I appreciated the late-game features like the market and alchemy tower. As taking advantage of the "manual" events like chopping forests was still efficient/relevant later on, along with the fact that no resource became obsolete, the game still felt challenging throughout.

I did like how you slowly learned what everything does, but at the same time, I had no idea I could build special things next to the kingdom until by complete accident. I was really confused why I couldn't upgrade my kingdom even though I didn't have the resources, and a guide or tip of some kind would have been helpful. At the same time, it would take away some of the mysterious charm of the game, so I'm a little conflicted.
Maybe don't give the option for upgrading the kingdom until you buy the special buildings?

Also, you should add some kind of confirmation for restarting the game. I lost a lot of progress by pressing the tab button.

Anyways, I put my current world above. I tried to balance aesthetics and realism along with maximized buildings. I haven't used the "drop" option yet, kind of afraid it'll be the ending. I also didn't have enough patience to get the rainbow dog despite the amount of time I waited for the entire game.

edit: NOOOOOO i saw the ending coming but i'm still sad ;-;

ooo, got it.  the mistberries were on their own when you uncovered them in the mist so i thought the complete opposite.

and i've definitely been using those potions, grouping same-type plants and forcing them to bond with rocks has been most of my strat

great game! enjoyed the sense of progression when building your town and the rush to do as much as possible every day.

i still don't understand how to farm the mistberry though lmao
