Eat The Dungeon General Discussion

i got a suggestion, the ability to erase your save data, if you wanna, yknow, start over

I look this up, the art is very cute!

Iā€™ve been kinda gradually fixing this as I go

Iā€™ll probably add this eventuallly. Until then, you can erase it manually by clearing all browsing data for the bewilderedgames website

The Glutton and the Dragongirl are both very close, so here is the tiebreaker. I will pick the one that has the top votes when I check the poll Tuesday morning next week, regardless of how close they are. There will not be a second tiebreaker

Thereā€™s also a small update to Eat the Dungeon, itā€™s mostly just some clean up

Gotta go Glutton, I love me some dragons, but the glutton looks cuter(the dragon girl is plenty cute herself though, just not AS cute to me), and Iā€™d like to see her fat more than the dragon girl.

honestly? I gotta go dragon, glutton is good in design and all, but she could be a lancer and be allowed to do long lane attacks with attack resets as a sort of ā€œstunā€, dragon looks more like what the stereotypical ā€œknightā€ looks like

Iā€™m tempted to go Dragon girl. While Iā€™m not personally into dragon girls (and very much into the Glutton design), I already got what I want in the game in the form of the Thief and Witch, so might as well add a little diversity to the lineup, right?

either one. but since Kobold didnā€™t make it to the tiebreaker, my vote goes to Dragongirl.

Honestly hope itā€™s not the glutton, out of the 5 original knight designs she is by far the least inspired and most boring :confused:. That and it would be nice to see somebody besides that bulbasaur guy win a design. Honestly though for people who submit designs this feels really scummy. 50 $ for a commisions with a random chance to get a 200 pic sequence of the character? Doesnā€™t really seem fair.

Hello, ā€œthat Bulbasaur Guyā€ here,

I believe that youā€™re looking at the $50 Patreon Tier all wrong, it isnā€™t some scummy money grab with a false promise - it exists for people who want to support ETDā€™s development to that degree.

There is nothing said by Bewildered Angel that guarantees that any design gets in. Due to the nature of the Polls there is a chance that designs wonā€™t get in, but itā€™s not random chance - itā€™s down to the gameā€™s supporters.

I can take having criticisms levelled at my designs, but calling out BAā€™s Patreon like this is completely unwarranted.

Youā€™re right man, and Iā€™m sorry. For anybody who reads this after the post was removed: I was being a bitter and whiny shit. Thanks for the sanity check man, fucking needed it.

Itā€™s no problem man, everyone has to vent from time to time!

If you ever want to chat about ETD designs and such throw me a PM on here, I know youā€™ve been rather outspoken with your opinions on my designs - but I like to hear what everyone has to say positive or negative!

I hope thereā€™s a way to save soon. I need to keep restarting because I only play this stuff on Incognito Mode.

Iā€™ve already beaten the game, though. Iā€™ve attained S on every level and my characters all require 1500 weight for each stat increase, besides The Witch, who needs 2100.

Iā€™m a programmer, so I can help set up a login system. PM or email me:

If anybody is interested in how I arrived at $50 price tag for the character design tier, itā€™s largely based on the fact that it takes me about two hours to produce a design. (On stream it only takes 1 hour, because can talk to the patron directly so edits are much faster, and Iā€™ve done research and planning ahead of time)

I price most of my work at about $12 an hour, so 2x12=24. Then I double it, since we also have to support the actual development of ETD. So half goes to ETD, and half goes to the design. Then Patreonā€™s fees amount to 5%-10% depending on how fun and sassy theyā€™re feeling that month. So 2x12x2x1.05=50.4 and 2x12x2x1.1=52.8. And then I round it down to an even 50 just to make it easier.

I know the $50 tier is not an attractive option to everyone! But please believe me that its price is set at 50 for good reason. It is not my desire to rip anybody off

Thank you for the offer, but I donā€™t really have any desire to add a log in system. If you want to save youā€™re going to have to play outside of incognito mode

Iā€™m assuming you okay on incognito mode to avoid having eat the dungeon in your browser history. If thatā€™s the cases youā€™re in luck. The game will only reset if you delete the cookies or site data. If youā€™re playing on chrome, you can delete browser history separate from cookies and site data, so you can remove Eat the Dungeon from your browser history while keeping your progress.

Progress is still wiped with major updates, though.

Even without a login system, many browser games offer the ability to download the save file, which would also work for this use case. I do see that you save multiple variables to the Local Storage, but it might be comparatively simple to save to a JSON object, and allow saving and loading that from disk. Not something you have to do, but just thought Iā€™d mention it as a compromise solution.

Iā€™ve closed the Knight poll, and the Glutton is the winner:

This isnā€™t supposed to be happening? What browser and device are you using?

Iā€™m definitely more inclined to do something like this
