First time I've backed something on Kickstarter! Gotta take a chance sometime?
Prodeus already looks to be in a playable state with a working map editor. :)

Quoting: MaathI tried this game many years ago. I found it excruciatingly difficult, and could not master the use of the grappling hook. I don't know how people can handle it.
This game is very well suited for casual playing, quick matches and all out pew pew. The controls are really simple. You should give it another go!

Keep it simple, just think of the grappling hook as a way to get to higher ledges than you can double-jump to and you'll be fine. In a match, there's usually no time to fiddle around with the hook since ppl will be intent on force-feeding you a lead sammich as soon as possible. :whistle:

PS.
You can probably find ppl willing to play a match or two in the GoL Discord. :)

The great distribution puzzle game 'Train Valley 2' has officially released
16 Apr 2019 at 9:24 pm UTC Likes: 1

Imagine if Warcraft III had been a Gold Mine Foreman business simulator. Happy with that "sequel"?

TV1 is a puzzle game.
TV2 adds tycoon-esque resource management into the mix.

Sequel? It's not even the same type of game. I suggested to the devs that they should call it Train Valley Tycoon or something instead since it diverts so far from the original. Sadly, they didn't agree.

If you enjoy riveting stuff like transporting thing A from place 1 to place 2, and transport thing B from place 3 to place 2 in order to make thing C and transport it to place 1 in order to now make thing D which you transport to place 4... then TV2 might be a game for you.
