I wanted to give the game a go, but my phone's screen is too small; I keep mistapping. A pity.

Has anyone tried Survive! Mola mola! yet? I saw it mentioned in a webcomic, and I'm curious.

it's an entertaining, silly game, plus it's real cool for learning about the mola mola! I had no idea that they got spikey at an early stage of their development before I played it

Does Google have a thing against Reddit threads? I have been searching for anything more than single wikia thread questions for info on Shattered Pixel Dungeon for a couple days now for info on all the reworked stuff since I played the base game after it originally came out, and it wasn't until I specifically added "reddit" to my search string that it immediately popped up with the dev's post linking to exactly what I needed. My Google-Fu is usually pretty good for a layman, so that was really weird.

i just gave it a google and got what i assume is the reddit post you're referring to plus what i assume is the dev's tumblr

maybe it's a regional thing?

What is Zoombinis?

it was an edutainment game that managed to capture a lot of people who played it's attention by virtue of not being designed as an educational tool but rather as a game. if you're curious about the history of it, usa today did a big article on how it is being rereleased http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2015/08/05/zoombinis-game-reboot/30615099/

I got a legendary hammer that poops out fireworks on kills and a ring that lets fireworks have a chance to instantly destroy (so works in one hit for rock / ore blocks) blocks they bounce off of. When it pops off it really pops off :getin:

I'm not completely sure the gold I spent upgrading the blacksmith is worth it, aside from the fact that it's the only way to really get picks with better mining attribute. I'm paying about 13 coins per forge and I'm getting dupes more often than not.

i got a ring that makes lightning crates have a chance to "chain" which seems to be able to happen off its own chains as well, and when it pops off it really pops off. clears out more tiles than a bomb does sometimes and that's without managing to draw the super lightning card

if you max out a card then any further cards give you tokens. dunno if its linked to rarity or not but so far i got 15 common tokens from drawing the common bomb card when it was already maxed

Knifegrab posted:

Anyone else notice how inconsisten the game speed is when playing pocket mine? Sometimes it seems like I have to move very quickly through a mine and the characters and everything move lightning fast whereas other times it feels slow and like I have a ton of time to decide where to go.

Not sure but I think the game is just poorly optimized and sometimes tends to bottleneck.

for me it's usually onyl bottlenecked when i hit a bomb that sets off three lightnings on one of the 2 or 3x difficulty zones, seems to be that all the different poo poo it has to animate suddenly throws a spanner in the works. frankly im baffled they still havent implemented some kind of offer system. i've got a bunch of maxed out common tier sets and some uncommon ones too that i'd love to just put up so that anyone starting can grab a bunch to get some cards but nope just gotta wait for people to request single ones i guess

Do you mix and match your teams depending on the opponents?

somewhat. so for example if theres a fight that lots of greens i'll bench my purple dude in favour for a blue (im pretty sure im remembering the strength/weakness circle right but you get my point). then its also good just to have 3 generically good characters of each colour for the introducing: -x- matches so that you can stack your team to be strong against that colour

So uh hi I'm back, I just leveled the cheerleader chick with the Slingshot ability and paired her with my top 2 heavyweights...

...now what if I had MORE guys with Slingshot at the same time? I must test this ...for science.
Oh and am I correct in the fact that Slingshot is WAAAY better than Boost right? There's no comparison in the amount of speed you get.

slingshot makes me flinch whenever i come up against a level that has it in the lineup, especially if theres >1 of them

ive been playing a bit and i dont think you can, you just want to fill out your top 8 slots with whatever your best options are and hope you dont get stung by unfortunate comp. im regretting not spending much time getting dna for dinos that dont hybridize now that ive gotten to the point where i can make a hybrid. it seems like to do that and then level it up you need to use dna from both of the parent dinosaurs, which means that those are going to be bottlenecked if you want to also improve the hybrid, whereas a dino that doesnt combine can keep leveling up

in jurassic world they really need to put pounce's cd up to 2 turns at least imo. massively cutting your opponents damage and then on top of that doing double damage, and doing this every other turn, is just crazy

most matches just end up being trade fests in my experience so far, sitting around 1300 points so far. its just frustrating when they pull a raptor and you dont, or theirs is higher level, because it usually ends up being pounce, strike and youre dead, so whoever you put in next is open for a pounce immediately. if youve got one and happen to be lucky enough to get it in your 4 picks a wuerhosaurus is a decent way of dealing with them, you can instant cripple to neuter the pounce and then thagomizer them but thats just purely up to luck

i still think pounce needs a longer cooldown, not just a delay. rampage is just 2x damage without the debuff and usually on slower, lower damage dinosaurs, and it has a 2 turn cooldown, which just serves to highlight how stupid pounce is

Yeah, since I wrote my post I figured out most of that, now my only leftover question is what the heck does the Rampage skill on arms (specifically scythes) do?

it seems like it either negates speed loss from collisions or causes you to speed up when you hit things (including the edge of the screen) so you can just flick once and let it go as long as you want
