Good lord, I hope they change the font on the cards before release. It looks terrible and hard to read.

Seems to me that given how you need to get your combat turn over with fast to prevent your opponent from building their economy, and each card having a unique set of moves, there's a really strong advantage to players who are very familiar with the cards and every one of those moves, since they can finish combat rounds much faster. Newer players would be at a big disadvantage there.

Quoting: Acrophobic

Quoting: NezchanHaving tried it a little, it seems fun and also I'm bad at it.

Same !

I've played it for several hours, and I think my main problem is it's too combo based. Want to use special attack ? Do combos 2x. Want to regain some health ? Do combos 4x.

I often find myself only have one health, but there are not enough enemies in current room to gather combos. I hope it will get balanced later in full release.

I've found that at my level of skill, it's basically impossible to get hearts via combos. My only way to make back health is the shop by the second checkpoint. The zoomed-in view, where not a lot of enemies are on screen at once, and my difficulty figuring out what the effective range throwing the bird is, really play against me there.

I love Dicey Dungeons, although I haven't really put enough time to beat it on most of the characters. Basically waiting for the full release and whatever balancing the dev does at this point. I doubt I'm good enough for the hard mode, so that'll be left untouched in the end I guess.

Wonder if he fixed the bear potion bug?

I'd be interested for Streets of Rogue and Graveyard Keeper, but on the other hand I have enough games on my plate right now so it'd be a long time before I got around to either. So in the near term, better not to.

I'm really liking the look of this. Definitely going on the wishlist.

I wonder if this was inspired by our exchange on Mastodon. Even if not, it's worth keeping a list of what goes into full release each year, if only to get an idea of where the Linux market is at in terms of actual "finished" games.

And it's finally on sale on itch.io for a change. The last couple of Steam sales didn't have a corresponding sale there.
