Thanks! I'll definitely be giving this a go at some point.

Although the devs considering stalling cheesy annoys me, I have to admit. I don't object to trying to challenge players, but "I don't like this strategy, therefore I'll go out of my way to nerf it in bizarre ways after players use it to overcome challenges" just makes me think of the Absolute Virtue discussions that kept cropping up in the Pokemon fangame threads.

Which is a shame, because other than that I think whoever made this does have a pretty good sense of how to make things challenging so far, without just resorting to "let's make all the numbers bigger HAHA" like so many supposed difficulty hacks.

Edit: to clarify this, I think what I'm trying to say is that I'd rather see designers who dislike certain tools to make challenges where those tools are a poor choice, rather than arbitrarily nerf those tools or deny the player access to them. Design difficult content, sure. I like difficult content. But if players find a solution other than the one in your head, that is a good thing and doesn't necessitate changing the game.

Eh, I think diminishing returns on refresh is fine. Without it optimal play would be to completely fill health and flower power at the end of any encounter that allows it. Skipping past the debate of whether or not its ok balance to include this, that is tedious for the player. This way refresh is still a very useful ability, but avoid the annoying abuse problem.

So, for your amusement, have a pic of a Paper Mario romhack that doesn't actually exist:

Thamz was observed saying "Somewhere between a week and two months". That was a week ago; now there's a note in the Discord saying that development is stalled, so I'd guess 1-2 months.

If we go long enough with no news, I might start another LP to keep my hand in.

I read somewhere recently that Capcom re-upped their ownership of it so that may not be entirely true anymore

Actually, according to a leaker that tends to get things right, they're making a BN game right now!

It's a motherfucking gacha!

Imagine being the kind of person who requires that level of difficulty to feel a sense of accomplishment.
