It doesn't give you a little bit of fun and makes promises of greater fun if you stick around. It's fun straight away. A couple of minutes in and I was throwing multiple bombs around and making huge explosions, killing many many jellies in the process. Also it's very cute. And I liked the swipe controls and UI in general. Good job madjackmcmad.  I only wish there were a different slider for sound effects. Or that the music slider went further beyond 100? Essentially I want to better listen to the music without getting my eardrums pierced every time I smash a pot. I mean, come on, there's already one for music. EDIT: Also, at least so far, all weapon and armor upgrades have felt substantial. I really like that. It's not very fun to get an upgrade that lets you be 2.5% more efficient.

if that system shock roguelike thing isn't ever turned into an actual game i'm going to be very sad. i love that sort of 'pixel textures on 3d models' look.

Unormal posted:Why doesn't anyone ever confuse us with the URR or Cogmind guys, madjack? your games actually have gameplay, which saves anyone from confusing them with URR if I played Cogmind and Caves of Qud going in blind and somebody told me they were made by the same person, just trying out different mechanics i might have believed them. of course, if someone told me Sproggiwood and CoQ were made by the same people in a similar blind test, i probably wouldn't

Hieroglyphika is a pretty stylish-looking roguelike on Greenlight right now, with the interesting feature of having no text at all -- only pictograms (and numbers).

Dev comments it's probably gonna be around $5-10. Will absolutely take a look when it goes live, very pretty-looking thing.

Speaking of which, I'm having a blast learning to program by making a roguelike I'm also going to put this out there right now: It's going to be poo poo and that's okay

listen. its fine. I'm not owned!!! By the way on the Nuclear Throne side of things, apparently the devs acquired thronebutt.com when it went down and now that they've moved servers they're getting the same guy to get it back working again for when dailies are unfucked. I'm real excited

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn4pc_B8chs Take a look at the first video of Roggle's gameplay, in which I play through the game's first depth. Development is pretty far along now, I'm going to start sharing it with videos more often. I use mouse controls in the video, but don't worry, full keyboard controls are already implemented.

DeathBySpoon posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn4pc_B8chs This is looking very good. Seeing the "void" in motion is way better than the darkness you had before. Am I seeing enemies dripping because they are wet for a few turns after getting out of the water? Also, the UI looks super comfortable and easy to work with.

my only criticism is if that's supposed to be dungeon level 1 it kind of looks more like overworld due to the multiple different environment tiles that get mashed together. looks really good though

Since last year, I've been working through my giant steam backlog. For 2015 I had a pool of games I wanted to play and rolled dice to dictate which games I had to finish. For 2016 I'm playing one game from each letter of the alphabet. I want to pick Caves of Qud to be my "C" game, but it's got no endgame, right? What would be a good milestone I could achieve in CoQ where I could cross it off the list and consider it equivalently beaten?

The game outright tells you when you've finished all the implemented content in the main quest. It's not easy to get that far, either - CoQ's storyline quests don't pull any punches.

I dunno if this is the right thread to ask this, but I'm looking for more rogue-lite type games like binding of isaac or nuclear throne. I got kind of addicted to ziggurat which is an FPS roguelite thing, but I unlocked everything and kind of beat the hell out of it.

If you specifically liked Ziggurat a lot try tower of guns. Less the fps vein but I also think Towerclimb is the best roguelite out there and I'm pretty bad and haven't gotten far.

Dungeonmans feedback: is my cool warlord polearm supposed to not be able to do reach attacks? It still lets me use my Bannermans attacks and it hits enemies behind adjacent targets struck by it, just like any other polearm.

I really hope the devs add more content in one way or another.
