It's ok but I'm really bad at it. I also feel like I played he game like 5 times and saw everything it had to offer in like 3 or 4 levels which is a bummer

that is objectively wrong, 3 or 4 levels won't even raise the difficulty enough to get half of the cool weapons to drop, let alone unlock all the playable characters.

Yeah I know I'm missing a lot of characters, but I didn't know there were better weapons. I kept getting the same basic kinds and thought that was it for the large part

I wanna get into it. I went for the vita version because that's where I play all my Indie Roguelikes but it requires way more precision than similar games and I prolly should have gotten it on steam instead.

guys... I beat Lil Hunter. I finally did it. It gave me a large open arena instead of a horrible tight maze with 2,970 enemies so I kicked his rear end with ease even though I had lovely weapons lol.

Then I died in 7-2 because something horrible spawned on my head but that's ok

Congrats, world 7 isn't too bad but the dark lab screws me over a lot.

The throne is kinda lame because there's a 95% you will die the first time you reach it and then probably never lose to it again unless you have problems with ammo

5-3 is the hardest (non secret) level to me. Although I never got into looping because I'm not certifiably insane

My faves are golden shotgun and golden wrench but it's basically whatever weapon you like becaus golden is just a slightly better version of the base weapon

I'm personally a fan of longer arms and melee kills reduce reload time and use the shovel since it OHKO almost every non boss enemy

Take last wish (or whatever it's called that gives you full health and a bunch of ammo) as a perk at some point before 5-1, then there will be a flower you can donate health to and if you do it a few times and a portal opens up to the jungle

goferchan posted:

The jungle seems pointless except for getting the chicken unlock though. But not as pointless as the oasis which seems to make everything worse by gimping your weapon drops for the rest of the game

Is oasis the world 1 area? Because I actually spent a lot of time running that skip with steroids just so I could practice the labs a bunch and have each run be like 5 minutes

I looked and the only reason for it is that you can reroll a perk because you replace last wish on the way out

I usually love projectiles that home in on people but in this game if a bullet curves away from where you aimed it it's infuriating

If you were encountering explosive snipers that's on 3-X which is like 7 minutes into a run. Weak...

no you just need to destroy the four generators in the throne room before destroying the throne. you should get the crown of curses anyway because unlike the rest of the crowns Curses is actually good

ok im not alone in thinking that all of the crowns seem to offer way more downsides that upsides

admittedly I havent tried to loop ever but the bullet patterns for the throne are fairly sluggish. its the one part of the game that resembles a shmup because youre just in an unobstructed hallway of bullets and its easier than ones Ive tried to practice

ooo did not know that. thx


this game is nuts.

As a heads up if you do early big bandit it skips you to a underwater level and then directly to 3-3 which makes it really hard because the drops you get are still on the normal scaling. I tried using that path for a while to just attempt the throne but i was unwittingly making things a pain for myself until somebody corrected me (I think it was oddium)
