Bug: when playing on itch.io it will often crash when trying to start a run. The game also crashes when trying to take an exit to the next floor. The game ALSO crashes when trying to restart after dying, please fix this please.
The damage of the CLEAVER is not calculated correctly when I press options button during attacking. And the reason of this is that the BELT OF KNIVES fail when options button is pressed, also, the number of attacks has been reduced. For example, Each cleaver should attack 11 times, but after I press options button, some cleaver might attack just 3 times. I find this bug because the animation speed will accelerate when I press options button, and the shortcoming of cleaver is that it take too much time for an attack.
Is it just me or do shops on level 1 generally have amazing items you can't afford, and shops on lower levels have nothing but crap? Like when I have 5 coins I see Legendary items in the shop. When I have 99 coins I see a bunch of Common items.
Feels like the shop needs to balance it's goods based on the floor number. Really frustrating to see an AMAZING item on Floor 1 shop that there's no possible way I can afford. Even if I sold my entire inventory.
as you can see, locked doors are not working 100% of the time lol. im now stuck behind this one. somehow let me in without a key. wants one too leave though. The little footprint animation for when you move showed me walking into the black void and around into the room.
This might be a bug? None of the items seem to affect each other for example the bronze breastplate isn't getting any extra block from the knight's shield nor is it giving the +1 attack to the wooden sword.
I only got 2 block per turn and could only do 7 damage per hit too so it's not just a visual thing.
is it on purpose? cleanse flame relic now also removes poisen, weak and all the other negative buffs on the enemys. I know the description of the relic say so, but i think a build for example with club (one weak per hit) is usesless if you have this relic, cause you instant remove it. but at all i kinda love the surprise update :)
There are two flaws in that. One is what TheRealAskz said where only 1 archangel wing will enable since the item in between will get disabled. While the other is that it is useless with the Water Flask because instead of being able to use up to 4 uses in a turn, you're locking yourself to only 1 use per turn.
excuse me, WHAT. he can just sell tasty flies???funny thing is you buy it and use it he acts like you just put it back in the shop, but it still decreases the prices
It doesn't save my progress since the update. Saved last night before turning my pc off, but no option to continue today and I had to turn the music off again. Never had trouble with it before. Disappointing, but hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
That's understandable, but there is no download on Steam yet, so not sure how that would help me save. I think I'll take a break from the game after this last update though. It feels like way more of a struggle now, and less fun as a result. It could very well just be RNG, but I if it is, I'm having terrible luck today. Feels like I'm underequipped every attempt, regardless of loadout. Do the enemies do more damage now? I used to be able to dance my way to floor 10, with plenty of variety in equipment available, but now it's a trudge full of wooden swords. A happy medium would be nice. Still a solid game though, just not sure I'd have played as much if it had been this hard the first time I played.
press the m key from the start screen. a while ago i commented "am i the only person who thinks there should be a way to skip the tutorial? if so, there should be a way to skip the tutorial. or maybe export a save file. every time i reload i have to go through the tutorial ;-;" (note: this was literally a month ago) and Thejaspel replied "Press M on the main screen!" so yeah. also before you ask, yes it still works. i just checked. also Thejaspel's reply before mine didn't load for me lol
Strange bug, try to open the door on the left found no key click to leave, directly to the right of the door I teleported inside, now out can not get out, directly dead file, this is the second time
Any effects applied to duct tape apply to adjacent items. So if your duct tape is getting +4 damage from an adjacent gem, it gives +4 damage to any weapons the duct tape is next to.

Barbell Makes Queen Cleaver SUPER STRONG!

The lucky dagger is a good weapon. I like it

Yeah, I find that too.
I often see some really good items - at the first floor shop. I can't afford them.
But, when I get to higher levels, I just find garbage.
I had a run where I bought the earthbound sword on the first level because I got coal out of a chest. That run was completely broken.
I got the same run.
SUPRISE UPDATE BABY
Thanks for the update guys! This game rocks
too easy
as you can see, locked doors are not working 100% of the time lol. im now stuck behind this one. somehow let me in without a key. wants one too leave though. The little footprint animation for when you move showed me walking into the black void and around into the room.
Sorry this is happening. Will work on it!

so close
Im stuck in this infinite loop. TT
弓箭只能前期后期不太行
anyone know how to get archangle wings easy

pain. wasn't in fullscreen so you don't get to see the save and options buttons :P
wtf two archangel wings thats useless since the item gets disabled anyways
i mean- i don't care that much honestly lol originally that spot was for my broken water flask that had 0 uses
There are two flaws in that.
One is what TheRealAskz said where only 1 archangel wing will enable since the item in between will get disabled. While the other is that it is useless with the Water Flask because instead of being able to use up to 4 uses in a turn, you're locking yourself to only 1 use per turn.
like i said, i don't care, plus the run's already long gone.
i broke a water flask. 0 uses. doesn't give me energy. can't use it. et cetera.
Floor 15 death. I needed some regen but I couldn't find any later on.
The coal (pile of black dust) uses 1 stamina to let all items in the row be used again.
The candle makes all weapons do -1 to all status effects on all enemies.
The ring in the center is the ring of doom and gives adjacent and diagonal weapons +2 damage for this combat. It uses 1 mana.
I could only do about 500 damage a turn, a bit too low for the boss.
I also had 30 block from the structures and glove.
is it just me or are the luck rings spawning chance now super low?
i noticed the new update (as far as i know) include :
pressing tab to toggle between bag and map
pressing Q,E,A,D to flip item
the rest is the same, spacebar to end turn.
Switching between bag and map function isn't new.
When will it be playable on steam? And is it going to be free?
A demo is coming to Steam soon, and early access is coming to Steam in August which will cost money.
man, rng is being interesting for me today. lotsa duplicates n stuff.
wow cool you hit 3 of the same object
what are the odds of getting 4 of the same exact item on floor 1 first battle- wondering cuz uhhhhhhhh
yes.
this seems to be a trend cuz i had a full basic sword startoff. (i don't have a pic but i didn't think it was needed till now)
it isnt 4 of the same item its 3 first wands and one cleaning wand
oh i didn't notice that-
excuse me, WHAT. he can just sell tasty flies???
funny thing is you buy it and use it he acts like you just put it back in the shop, but it still decreases the prices
INFINITE MONEY LOOPHOL
actually the fly disappears.
darn bat poison... failed to outheal it due to the fact that i was alr down on health from the previous bat, which i barely managed to outheal.
why isnt the backpack bigger?

The save games were lost because I uploaded a new update. Sorry! That's just how Itch works. It loses data each time :/
If you want to save progress more consistently, please check us out on Steam!

does the new update remove Matthew?
It did not, but I'm not 100% sure how to access him. Have done so accidentally.
You can press M at the main menu. Also you unlock him after losing once.
press the m key from the start screen. a while ago i commented "am i the only person who thinks there should be a way to skip the tutorial? if so, there should be a way to skip the tutorial. or maybe export a save file. every time i reload i have to go through the tutorial ;-;" (note: this was literally a month ago) and Thejaspel replied "Press M on the main screen!" so yeah. also before you ask, yes it still works. i just checked. also Thejaspel's reply before mine didn't load for me lol

Strange bug, try to open the door on the left found no key click to leave, directly to the right of the door I teleported inside, now out can not get out, directly dead file, this is the second time
sounds like pain.
Happened to me just now! Need a fix
Avada Kedavra!!!!
I remember going to a weapon blacksmith and putting +1 rage on my metallic wand.
It turned from a mana bow build to a mage build instantly.
But the strongest weapon is still the assassin's dagger rather than the metallic wand，What a regrettable design : {
AHJGDHGRFKWRHFSLKJLHLR SURPRISE UPDATE!!!!!
good game,not much build to paly with tho.i mean,it's just impossible to get far without dactapes,and there is no way to 100% obtain it,kinda irritate
what do you mean? I finished it multiple times
How do the duct tapes work?
That might be why I can't get past floor 15.
Any effects applied to duct tape apply to adjacent items. So if your duct tape is getting +4 damage from an adjacent gem, it gives +4 damage to any weapons the duct tape is next to.
eeeer, any way to remove the WISHLIST ON STEAM mega button? And How to solve the pink rectangle, same happening to deathrayofnukes :(
The button is just on the title screen, and this is obviously just the demo, so shouldn't you be able to ignore it?
NEW UPDATE :D
forget my run happened and then coem back
think ima take a break
im sad now
anyone else experiencing a pink rectangle in the middle of their screen for 5 - 10secs when they start a run from matthew or just click continue game?
no but i had an overpowered setuo and this run took it from i was able to chain the same cleaver 20 times per energy
no but for me it just freezes for about 5 seconds.
