Hmm, is it just me or the game is not saving properly these days? I got returned to the tutorial without getting the dying benefits every single run. I tried out like 2 different browsers, with and without incognito but still get the 'not saved'. Clicking the 'Save game' button does not change anything either. The stats does look normal and it registers my deaths. Maybe I will manage to find a solution, but for now I basically get -10 hp for this.
Final build for me, with +1 rage cleaver& +2 haste mirror shield.
By the way, there's a shortcut to stack up the shield : with haste, the ninja armour doesn't clear it (-100%), but multiples (+n*100%) in turn. I wonder it's a bug or a feature, pretty convenient still.
New personal best, I'm still learning the game. Cleavers are great but in deeper floors fall flat, I was waiting for better cleavers but they never show up. I had crazy defense but venom snakes ended my run.
This was a very silly build, but I enjoyed finally milking letters for all their worth. You can move them as many times as you want in the same turn and, provided they're still adjacent to the same weapon, their bonuses stack. You can even reorganize to reset them mid-turn if you have enough energy to spare!
Level 80 and still going strong. It took me several runs to get this build going.Im not sure whether crimson or the curses are better in the long run. Btw battle animations take forever at this point. It would be great to have an option for turning combat animations off.
Two things: the candle and haste on shields to stack up defence before going hard on them. The king is the most challenging because of haste as well. I rearrange the cleaver to use one with shield and the rest to hit hard and kill spawns
I really love this game - tons of fun! I'm so sad that my saves constantly end up looking like this... I think it'll be fixed eventually. When I play, I come and go all day long, which means relying on the save file. Going to the kickstarter to support now! :)
I just lost trying to do a pacifist run. It wasn't to my build being weak. Instead, I lost my run to the snakes that quite literally do not attack. Just curious if it's possible to beat that fight without weapons as my spikes build got decimated to their poison.
Managed to get to floor 35 with some nice archery stuff where I died unceremoniously to the last enemy before the magma core boss (ran out of energy consumables). Mouse wood scales incredibly well with extra energy, so I would just burst down every enemy/boss on turn 1 using the emerald necklaces and avoid having to block entirely.
On a sadder note, save functionality is entirely broken for me, so I've basically stopped playing for now. Long Endless runs can take me hours so not being able to take a break and load saves later is too punishing. Can't even visit Matthew anymore. :'(
Love this game though! Can't wait for it to be downloadable and excited for extra difficultly levels.
Yeah but it doesn’t do anything when you have relics that affect consumables, you can’t get the extra damage from it being adjacent to your weapon and you also can’t get it by trading in a consumable for a rarer consumable in the event
I now cannot save my game, I keep getting "Save failed" and can't progress at the start of the next floor. This bug persists even if I start a new run. What a shame.
Yes, there is only so many saves/loads you can do before game cannot save anymore, and can even corrupt your last save like it happened to me when i loaded game with half of the inventory shown and being unable to do anything.
I was able to run new games though, no problem with progressing the floors normally. It just keep saying "Save failed" so I kinda have to do it in true roguelike style :D
First of all, congrats on getting past the funds that you guys wanted on your kickstarter. This is an amazing game with lots of potential and I'm happy to see it grow. Now to the image, this is the longest I could go. I don't know if this was intended but heavy items can't fall if an anchored item is below them.
anchors are heavy (yes i didn't know that too) so heavy items won't fall if there is an anchored item + if anchored items didn't support heavy items they would be able to be removed by squishing them
Welp, guess that couldn't be any better of a start lmao. Got soldier's buckler floor 1 and everything else on floor 2, build is almost online for beating first 9 floors :D
lol, to get that and meet 2 snakes at the very end of the magma core. we really need something to deal with that poison bs, beside the potion that removes everything from you (also i'd need 3 of them because there is 3 snake fights on the floor).
legit just ran into that fight with a pacifist full armor no weapon build. It went fantastic as now I'm in the comments asking if there was a way to beat it weaponless.
I found a really interesting stalemate today, The boss cannot summon any more minions and I cannot do any damage with my spikes. If I wait for a weapon I might be okay but I think I have too much weak by now.
Think its never good to only rely on spikes, just because of couple bosses like this and magma core snakes with poison. Well, ignite might be a problem without haste too.
this is a stalemate... or is it? it is actually not a stalemate you are just both refusing to die but when you stop attacking the enemy wont be getting weak therfore you will die when you attack... or do you? if the mole somehow gets enough dmg to surpass the weak you might lose
Haha I actually died because the mole surpassed the weak and I wasn't paying enough attention to my armor. I was laughing the entire time since to me, it was an endless loop that I probably couldn't get out of without dying (which I did )
This game is incredibly sticky; I've sunk a frankly embarrassing amount of time into it in the past two months. I've tried a wide variety of builds, including using the cauldron to farm for golden whetstones. Floors 16 and 17 always end my run, all thanks to Status Effects. Poison and Burn scale SO HIGH, SO FAST that they're nigh impossible to counter. That said, I only run into this problem so often because I play the game so much, which I keep doing because it's pretty dang fun up until that point.

PLEASE add a way to exit to main menu in game. Having to restart only by dying or entirely closing the game is incredibly infuriating
Okay! We will add an option in the "options" menu with our next update!
Thank you! Really appreciate it!
Saving isn't working- it just says "save failed", and sure enough, it doesn't save.
We are working on this bug. Sorry about it!
Floor 101. My favourite level so far ;P

Everything is a feature if it makes the game more fun.
很喜欢的一个游戏，希望能有中文

Tryed out a cleaver run it was pretty fun

wow! how do you handle things with spikes-on-hit like blademasters with the cleavers?
I'm guessing the candle reduced the spikes
Two things: the candle and haste on shields to stack up defence before going hard on them. The king is the most challenging because of haste as well. I rearrange the cleaver to use one with shield and the rest to hit hard and kill spawns
Thank you!
Woah!
lost at floor 17! could you add toggable autofire on a button, like right click? saves a lot of clicks in ring-of-doom builds.

Thank you! The local builds will have better saving!
At two Shady Traders in a row, I traded a Wizard Cap for another Wizard Cap. Then again a few Traders later.
why are there two different types of keys? they do the same thing.
also i wanted to turn the boss to a fish and i did it was a big fin
I very like the philosphers stone.
ninja costume gives you block when you have haste instead of removing 100% of your block
I just lost trying to do a pacifist run. It wasn't to my build being weak. Instead, I lost my run to the snakes that quite literally do not attack. Just curious if it's possible to beat that fight without weapons as my spikes build got decimated to their poison.
did you try scratching? that for some reason doesn't count as a weapon
I'm questioning rng when i saw this room
also don't worry i beat the room eventually since i reset one more time and i died to the boss

Wow that's a lot of floors you cleared! wp!
Badger Boss dropped sad relics and the Fire Geckos claimed my loot - not enough cheese to match their scaling ( ′～‵ )
shouldn't seasoning count as a consumable
No, It is annoying when you missclick/misstap and destroy your consuable build
Yeah but it doesn’t do anything when you have relics that affect consumables, you can’t get the extra damage from it being adjacent to your weapon and you also can’t get it by trading in a consumable for a rarer consumable in the event
When will there be Chinese
Pls add a dowloable versión for Windows , i don't want to lose this beautiful game
You should checkout our Kickstarter!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/backpackhero/backpack-hero
Backers are guaranteed continued early access to the game. And we'll be moving to local builds once the Kickstarter ends.

the manastone bow remove three cleavers from my backpack. please fix it.
Its nice! I like it
Buildings are absolutely BROKEN with Haste, due to Haste adding to each individual instance of adding block.
Curse power (blade does 98dmg)
It can be better to stack honey curses but I realised it too late.
I've ran into a problem....
this is a stalemate... or is it? it is actually not a stalemate you are just both refusing to die but when you stop attacking the enemy wont be getting weak therfore you will die when you attack... or do you? if the mole somehow gets enough dmg to surpass the weak you might lose

Will die....in floor 13...
Look at the end.
If you want to have it, you must wait bee's cursed in first Boss.
Remember to prepare the inventory, Because the cursed con't to move.
真是个好游戏，希望之后能出中文，虽然通过翻译单词玩了好几天已经基本可以顺畅的通关很多次，但还是有中文看着会舒服点
