Noted will fix next patch. Thank you.

Should be patched - let me know if not. Appreciate you playing it :)

Pushed a fix out now so you can continue playing and trying it out.

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah I'll figure something out. I think that might be a good next step making sure it works a bit better on different screen sizes.

Not sure it's just that people were reporting literally finishing the run in 30 mins. When I mainly balanced things around finishing a run in 14-16 hrs ish on 0 rebirths and at best wanted it to go down to maybe 5-7hrs after a few more rebirths.

Fair enough I did a pretty heavy nerf on them but still might be enough. I need to create a few more dev cheats to be able to test the game a bit better - probably one to speed up the gameplay significantly just to see whats happening.

So are mages overpowered currently?

I've removed that part completely now, and added a leaderboard to let you see how fast it takes you to beat the final boss at a certain rebirth e.g. took you x time with 0 rebirths, y time at 1 rebirth and so on to give you the ability to do that. Feel free to give it another shot and see if it helps at all if not, I'll do a heavy rethink of how I go about it. If that fails I think toning down the monsters by 20% for example and then having you unlock harder difficulties on first completion would be a good alternative.

Thanks for the feedback either way, gave me a lot to think about. Part of why I posted it here is to get it in the hands of people even if it risks getting a negative reaction to be able to start balancing and seeing what works and what doesn't/

That's fair I think I'll do a quick patch now to fix that.

Ah fair enough - yeah will need to do a big balance patch at once lol. Already got a bit of a list but want to do them all at once. Lmk if anything else needs tweaking or any qol things.

You earn essence on rebirths, but if you think this should be a bit different - feel free to suggest.

Let me know of any changes, recommendations e.t.c.
