That actually wouldn't be so awful in my opinion, if the internet's kinks were usually romantic classy stuff about consenting adults enjoying themselves with fairly vanilla experiences.
But no, I'm going to get the feeling I'm restoring my faith in humanity just by being lucky enough not to see it (yet). Thank you for the warning. I'll think twice before I try Googling Backpack Hero fanart.
No thank you. Especially not here. If I were in the Backpack Hero dev teams' shoes I wouldn't want my games' store page to become a tradespot for smut. Please have some respect.
Floor 1000 is where its at. If you ever make it there, Im pretty sure a lot of people would be curious to see how high the black manastone got. Also, bows arent that good. I made it past 1000 using assassins dagger, a lot of golden whetstones, and a bit of luck. Cheers
37 still alive. the keys for me are the 2 ninja's costume.
and the bow is good for ennemis with spike (with assassins dagger i always died against them) but i would like try both dagger and bow but i need some luck
I downloaded the latest version on mac, unzipped it, when I go through itchzips > mac > macos, the game is apparently a damaged unix executable and refuses to open
update: backpackhero.app and the mac version both do not function, the former downloads as mac.app and can't be opened while the latter still claims to be damaged
Got the skull ring thing, gold whetstoned a club, and proceeded to stuff my inventory with manastones. Died on floor 13. Why can I never find a black manastone when I need one?
This has now become my most played browser game, somehow topping both Minesweeper and Enchanted Cave 2. I genuinely don't think a roguelike can get better than this. Noita might have a bit more interesting gameplay, but it also makes me want to cry so that docks some points.
Attempting to beat the final boss twice in a single run has become my nemesis, so much so that I'm going to buy the Steam version just to get the necessary items. (on the web build expert bow + electric arrows + +2 damage/cast accessory + stopwatch + belt of knives gets you to Magma Core floor 2, but the math simply doesn't work out)
... Is this what the kids these days call paying to win? (´▽`) lol
fun but my weapon ended up destroying itself after being invincible. i think its because i added the bomb powerup next to it. you need to make ui stuff super clear when it comes to this. now it just became frustrating.
Yes, that goes on forever. Turning off combat animation is a must for this.
Most of the stuff is not needed. But I did include poison removal and a hasted buckler against spikes. Damage would ramp up with the rage buff on the dagger, but that dagger scales up all by itself as well. And having the sword activate by the wings to reduce cost of the dagger from 2 to 1 helps speed up too.
Hello, I'm part of a small indie dev studio, and like you, I assume, we were contacted by smilegate stove to put a game on their store + localization. I noticed your game on there, and I wanted to ask how your experience was with them. Do you feel it was worth it? Did you feel the contract was good?
Thanks!
btw the game looks adorable, I'd never seen it before and I'll probably pick it up soon haha
When loading a save on a floor that has the gold, experience flowers, or healing spots that disappear in a set number of turns, the numbers do not appear.
Additionally, the Swamp Buckler, which states that it provides block equal to your current poison, instead deals damage to the target equal to your current poison.
not sure where else to put this. i have the game on steam and was playing in the beta branch and ran into what i assume is a bug playing as pouchette if i encounter the armoured mouse that splits into three something happens around turn 6 or 7 that causes my attacks with pets to start adding armour to the enemies rather than damaging them. there is no icon for a buff that would be causing this
yes it has been. Thank you! I did also find that if you do a classic mathew run with pouchette and tell him you want to be an archer you get 3 random items rather than an archery kit which is still happening.
Thank you for making such a fun game! I loom forward to seeing how it continues to evolve
Seems like the Mac build is still broken. Adding an .app at the end of the mac folder makes it launchable, but it says that it’s damaged after a short while. Here is the error message which I get in the Mac Console maybe it helps. Seems like a file is missing.

hey developer person i found r34!
That actually wouldn't be so awful in my opinion, if the internet's kinks were usually romantic classy stuff about consenting adults enjoying themselves with fairly vanilla experiences.
But no, I'm going to get the feeling I'm restoring my faith in humanity just by being lucky enough not to see it (yet). Thank you for the warning. I'll think twice before I try Googling Backpack Hero fanart.
you want me to send you the link?
No thank you. Especially not here. If I were in the Backpack Hero dev teams' shoes I wouldn't want my games' store page to become a tradespot for smut. Please have some respect.

Honestly, I might not blame you, *if the mouse girl looked older*.
But she looks ambiguously like a teen, so tread with caution.
the frog is hot.

whenever i try to get a mage build going i simply don't find any manastones 😬 but the slay the spire reference (robot toy) is based 👍

floor 26 ...and not died yet

level 53 RIP maybe with third armor.... or more pv. I needed 200pv to resist at fire first turn
I downloaded the latest version on mac, unzipped it, when I go through itchzips > mac > macos, the game is apparently a damaged unix executable and refuses to open
I have the same problem :(
Just purchased the game, but cannot play on MacOS Ventura 13.3.1
Please fix, I don't want to ask for a refund!
Sorry about this! We will upload a new version first thing!
Thank you!! When do you think it's updated and ready to play?
I'll be working on it today! Hopefully this evening!
Hey! Just wanted to let you know that we are still working on this! Hope to have it working for you shortly. Very sorry for the delays!
No worries. It's already amazing to hear that you're working on it! Can't wait to play, though :)
Hi TheJasper,
Any news on the MacOS update?
Sorry about this! Please try the new file "BackpackHero.app" and let me know if that works for you!
I will do so ASAP! probably in a few days.
update: backpackhero.app and the mac version both do not function, the former downloads as mac.app and can't be opened while the latter still claims to be damaged

Better you obtain a bow with skull ring. ;-)
Stumbled across this game on itch.io and really love it. It’s right up my alley; I’ve played it through twice already! Thanks so much
Glad you like it!

Glad you're having fun! We hope you enjoy the steam version too!
Hello! I recently made a Hispanic video about AWESOME games on itch.io. Die in the dungeon is one of them! :D Hope you like it.
So cool to see! Thank you for sharing!
lucky-ish run
why is the game free on browser but the download is 16 dollars :(
the browser is just a demo! the download is early access and still updated regularly, and has probably around 5 times the content of this old version
Empty cup or cool drink.... hmmm...
How to get the button START GAME FROM MATTEW in demo version?
CTRL+M
It works! Thanks buddy
its just M
The new update crashes the game on launch and asks for steam to be played
oh no! Good catch! I will update it. Apologies!
Thanks a bunch :D
This should now be fixed. Apologies! Can you please try again?!
it works now :D
fun but my weapon ended up destroying itself after being invincible. i think its because i added the bomb powerup next to it. you need to make ui stuff super clear when it comes to this. now it just became frustrating.
Here to request a mobile release. I can play the demo on browser just fine.
Yes, that goes on forever. Turning off combat animation is a must for this.

(That are 3 boosters and 1 splitter.)
found a bug with the map lol
I got soft locked, i went to open a door after a boss, i did not have a key, and it pushed my to the outher side of the door, and i can not decend.
In the demo version there are locked doors, weren't there?
I only encountered locked chests in the current version. And you have to drag your key from the backback onto the chest there.
There is even a key sword. But is only usable once and gets destroyed if you open a chest with it.
I did not have a key... I GLITCHED THROUGH THE DOOR

Its really easy to go far if you use no armor and a bunch of hatchets with a shield that has the thorns equipment.
not sure where else to put this. i have the game on steam and was playing in the beta branch and ran into what i assume is a bug playing as pouchette if i encounter the armoured mouse that splits into three something happens around turn 6 or 7 that causes my attacks with pets to start adding armour to the enemies rather than damaging them. there is no icon for a buff that would be causing this
Should be fixed in the update we just posted!

nvm i got it
I am having trouble installing the linux version how would i go about doing this?
if youre using the browser and lose the option to start at mathew press m in the main menu
Easy win against the endboss within one turn. The combination with 2 coals is awesome :D
I also love the combination of "ring of rage" and "warrior's spellbook" <3
What does "natural" do for Tote?
draws carvings on the first turn!

Will there are mobile version?? Because i really want to play this game in everywhere
You can play it from the browser on mobile.
No it says Mobile doesnt supports web gl and i want play it offline it would be better if it has a original app :thumbsup:
Ew furry.
Fun game. 9/10
