Songbird Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Congrats on collecting so many crowns! I don't think crowns are guaranteed to appear on each level, so you have to play through multiple times. You should always receive the message when entering a level if a crown is present (that was something I suggested during beta testing, so a player could know if he needs to explore an entire level or if he can proceed to the next one). I agree selling equipment would be nice, since you get lots of surplus during the game. Permadeath, for better or for worse, is a feature of roguelike games. If you could save at any point, the game could become too easy. For a sequel, maybe there could be a happy medium of saving every 4 levels or something like that? Fighting enemies of course is the only way to gain experience. Experience will improve your stats, including health, magic, search (ability to find food & gold), attack accuracy, and defense. So while it's possible to bypass most enemies, you may struggle on the later levels where enemies can one-shot you if you're not properly leveled up. Great feedback overall, and glad you're enjoying the game! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the laggy movement is for grid turn based, then have an option where the time allocated for the grid turn based pause can be turned off/adjusted. Fighting monsters is the only way to level up and to increase Atack/HP/Magic. Iam not sure how turning off pause in a turn based game could work technically: During the time the monsters make their turn, you cannot make your turn simultaniously, you have to wait a bit. I agree that there is room for improvement (the game was a bit rushed out for release) Imo the battles could be a litle bit more snappier and provide more tactical depth (e.g. like The Hunt), player death often happens randomly and there is not a lot of skill involved. The game forces you to replay everything until you would eventually find all crowns, because the game would never spawn all crowns across the 12 levels or the necessary crowns left. So, it could happen you walk through whole the game for just 1 crown, rinse and repeat. I think I played through the game 5 or 6 times to collect all crowns and see the real ending.

I had to play through the complete game at least 6-7 times before I finally saw the full ending as well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Wow, thank you that is what happened I got 1 crown and then nothing. I think its the graphics and sound I like the most. They are happy little birds, but the enemy dying sound is good too. Yes, death seems random for sure. Almost like everything is a little too random. Right now I'm play just to get big bank account, as I spent all the money on the previous pass through. Seems unnatural to play for just that reason, if more time could have spent working on game balance, oh well. It's still a good game. Just now I've been getting 1 and 3 for gold, min gold should have been 10. Usually to outfit hero takes about 2K to go through all the levels. I'll try to get 4k so I have 2 good passes and hope for 1 crown each pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and am a fan of Hoplite / The Hunt. Having some ranged attacks and deterministic enemy movement would open up the combat quite a bit. I hope to work on a sequel eventually! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Will you get at least one crown per play through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
