quite stretched out posted:kinda wish there was more to 20 minutes til dawn. it looks very pretty and its a nice twist on the magic survivors genre but it only took me a handful of runs to realise you just need to get saccade early so you can farm xp easier, then freeze and the perk that makes enemies shoot bullets on death and youre largely good to just farm for the rest of the run. i did have a funny one though where i got the starting characters "triple the next upgrade" perk, then picked up splinters as the next perk while using the grenade launcher, so every enemy that died was spawning 9 bomblets and making the screen shake really violently I hope one day brotato comes to mobile. Of course it hasn't even had its open beta so I imagine it would be a while at best.

Its been a good phone but doesn't get good signal anymore in a lot of areas that my work phone does so I know its a phone issue and not a service issue.

I'm just about done with 20 Minutes (Have like two more runs on Darkness 15 to wrap up all the achievements) and honestly, pretty much everything can walk through the game unless you're trying a couple of the gimmicks, like pacifist. Once you realize that there's really only 2-3 builds and it all kind of converges on screen-clearing bullet spam, it's just trivial. Saccade is a crutch for early Darkness levels and drops off later, summons are generally mediocre unless you go all-in on them with Lilith, and everything else is just synergistic bullet spam. All in all, I've certainly gotten some playtime out of it, but it's not really that great a game. It's super repetitive, there's only like two minutes worth of the 20-minute runs that are potentially challenging, and there's just not a lot of variety. Most of the characters play basically the same by the end. The weapon variety is... okay, but also all kind of just converge into room-filling spam. I did discover that if you get enough size/fire rate increases on the flamethrower it breaks the particle effects, though!

Pacifist I used grenades and my clone and the rune that makes the 6 shot pentagram to get through the early bit. Then just did a summon build. I like trying to make gimmick builds work so I've probs got more fun out of it than it deserves(while doing worse at it than I should) but also it just eats battery (pixel 6 pro) so I play it like one good game before my battery is low enough that I'm worried for the rest of the day.

Gentleman Baller posted:Slice and Dice 2.0 just dropped. I played quite a bit of the beta, and yes, this is a big generational leap. As good as 1.0 was, this addresses many of the balance issues that were in it, dramatically expands the playable cast, and gives you so much more to do even after you've got a handle on the core Classic engine. There's a mode that generates randomized character classes (as in, coming up with crazy combinations on all six sides, not randomizing selection of base classes) that is maddeningly fun. You will get _so close_ to a break-the-game-over-your-knee synergy so many times and need just one more piece to succeed, even on Easy, but the random factor will keep you trying again.

What is the purpose of Statue?

Statue has like, triple the health of all the other tier 2 classes and so basically never dies. Any enemy attacks going at the statue are basically completely wasted. And yeah, by itself that's underwhelming, but if you get a handful of items that grant sides and stick those on the statue he can actually be a really good unit.

Yeah Statue is there for stuff like the longsword, which is kind of a questionable proposition on most other characters, but is incredibly good on it.

On the topic of "how do I use weird poo poo in Slice & Dice", what's a good use for the Bowl? It seems like you want to layer it over something with a passive benefit that also gives penalties to some sides so you don't get the penalties. But I haven't come across any such items, I usually only see ones that penalize some sides and buff others, at which point the bowl just negates the whole item. edit: shortly after posting I claimed my first Hard victory, my last surviving party member and the dragon that killed the rest both succumbed to ludicrous amounts of poison at once... ties go to the player it seems!

Is there any way to back up your game in Slice & Dice? I had unlocked most stuff previously, but I guess that is gone on a reinstall.

There are a few items like that like tattered robes or rusty plate. It really shines in curse modes where it reverts blank curses iirc

Usually I'm using tattered robes to patch up a mage's blank right sides. I tend to avoid the curses that mess with die faces too so I've never seen that come up. Thanks for the explanation!

Is there a Slice and Dice thread? I just got an item that "can't be locked" and don't seem to see the definition in the almanac. It seemed to prohibit me from using that die in a later turn.

Yeah, it's in a different subforum because the game is also available on desktop. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3982295 "Can't be locked" as in you can't keep that dice and reroll the others.

since I can't seem to find an Android platform thread. Is the pixel 7 going to be a trash heap or are pixels decent. last I looked at pixels the 3's were all the rage but My carrier didnt' have them. I'm due for an upgrade and can nab it for $100 with no trade in or anything (I'm on a legacy business plan that actually still does this poo poo) I'd be coming from an S20+

as far as i know every brand of cellphone is still a featureless black rectangle with varying levels of cpu strength and varying amounts of annoying preinstalled crap from the manufacturer google cuts out the annoying preinstalled crap and as a 'flagship' phone it should be powerful enough hardware-specs-wise to do anything you would want to do with a phone so go for it imo for a more nuanced take from nerds who care about the difference between 12 megazots and 18 microzangles on a phone camera you can check one of these IYG threads Android Thread Recommend me a Phone from the android thread it sounds like the review embargo will end on the 12th so if you want a real answer wait till then
