[Public Release!] Into the Depths - A Slay-the-Spire kind Weight Gain Theme Roguelike Deckbuilder!

[gildedbolt]

I am… actually not against the speed mechanic. I think that the game would actually end up being two easy without it right now since you do have a few attack cards that either scale faster than the strength stat lowers them (body slam) or cards that use other stats for damage calculation(calorie bomb). I DO HOWEVER find it VERY unfair that if the enemy gets multiple turns that you only get to know what they are going for on the first turn. And while you can guess what they are going to do most of the time with experience… that’s still not fair to the player who’s trying to make an optimal play for the ONE turn they get. There’s a reason why runic dome gives you a whole extra mana when it takes information from the player… its pretty damn hard to play around an enemy in a turn based game when you don’t know with absolute certainty what they will do. I’d say an easy fix would be to show the actions of an enemy for every turn they will take before you. Obviously the UI will have to be reformatted slightly so that at extreme speed differences they arent overlaping each other but i think that would be a good start.

I’m compiling all my bug reports here under 1 message, editing it as I go through a run. I should mention i am on 1.0.1.

I can’t really do much to confirm if this is the cause, but i’m pretty sure the relics that grant 1 extra action every turn in a battle are also reducing the energy cost of the first card played each battle by whatever your extra action number is. My current build is: Third Umbilical Cord, Critical Dice, Paralytic Powder, Wilderness Survival Guide, Stomach of Lamia, Scale of Judgement, and Ring of Avarice. I also have curse Distorted. Maybe some weird interaction is happening between some of these causing it?

Also, Flying Dagger and the Fried Ingredients item dont consume when you use them, meaning you can kill everything to the end of the game with just Flying Dagger once you get one.

With 26 Fullness and 37 Capacity, I played a Blessing: Agility+, but it threw back the battle record text that the rune was unmoved, and only hit its base 3 times when it should have hit an extra 3 more. Overeat is supposed to trigger every 8 Fullness, but it just didnt work here.

It looks like the character inspect for weight stage 2 is bugged, throwing Error: <>: bad evaluation: missing ) after argument list.

The encounter “The Enchantress” seems to have multiple options bugged and are missing. There is also an empty text box that I can click (I have not clicked it to see what happens as with no saves I will not be able to recover this run if it softlocks)

The Chimera Goat boss’ statistics are too low from the size of the boss icon, you cannot read its health through your own hand of cards, making it impossible to track which head you need to damage to kill the boss. The curses also applied “[number NaN]” stacks and with the Addicted curse, i gained NaN fullness. (as an aside, i decided to humor myself and use Throw Up here, and the resulting NaN poison deleted all boss pieces 1 by 1 and softlocked me in the encounter, with the combat bar still showing the boss.)

Fixed. Thanks for report.

I’m interested in other kinds of expansion such as the stuffing aspect of the mechanics (and apparently even pregnancy and vore), and I was wondering how much those things will be reflected in the art or flavor text, if at all.

Is it possible to make the reward pickup buttons easier to see? For multiple rooms I didn’t realize I was supposed to pick them up manually. Also, maybe it would be a good idea to have a confirmation button before proceeding to the victory screen. It is near impossible to read the flavor texts of the finishing attack because the screen proceeds automatically–this would be annoying if there are cards similar to Vore that are very likely to be the final card.

I haven’t played 1.0.2 for very long but I have not seen any bugs other than what people have already mentioned. Overall the game is quite fun!

I will make pick up button easier to see.

@morybar

Tried 1.0.1.
Core of the game is solid. It is reasonably well-designed and can be compared to other games in this genre.
However, the fetish part is underwhelming. So unremarkable you can easily change a few words here and there, remove it from the game completely, and this will not make any difference

The problem of fetish part is that the text is designed for more than one character. Thus it is to made to be vague intentionally. I will change the flavor text in future update.

@Fpiggit

Playing 1.1 and I keep coming across this error: Error: <>: exceeded configured maximum loop iterations (1000)
Anyone else having this issue/know a fix?

Could you please provide more information about the bug?

@Dotexe

This game is HARD to say the least … much harder than STS mostly because of the rng involved in the rooms mixed with the speed system. Most of the best options early game are keeping yourself in and out of maximum fullness with looping cards quickly and this works really really well until you face enemies that just move 4 times before you can get your second attack in on the third level. Mixed with a lot of the statuses still being in chinese and pandora’s box just not doing what it says it does, I would say wait a bit if you are considering buying this as a game, but still … it shows promise and the dev did some great work. Overall, I’d like to see some general scaling back of some of the RNG as well as making fights just easier in general because goddamn, loading into act 2 at half HP and having to fight 3 normal enemies then an elite for a 20% heal is basically a reset.

Translation and pandora’s box will be fixed. I admit that some enemies are not well balanced. Aside from my judgment, I would like to hear from the community about which enemy is too strong currently.

@DavidByrne2

bug: the enchantress with the donuts has some errors

Error: the passage “You” does not exist

Fixed. Thanks for report.

When we first designed the speed, it was to reflect the effect of weight on combat. Since it is indeed not balanced enough, we will find a way to deal with it.

Enjoying the game so far especially that you get to take the whole floor without being forced to rush to the boss.

For the “error: Error: <>: exceeded configured maximum loop iterations (1000)” bug I got that to but I only got it after giving up multiple times to try roll the start with legendary card in deck option so it could be from that?
