Update 1.3

Changelog

  • Find powerful ability-enhancing accessories (only one can be equipped at a time).
  • New encounters:
    • a blacksmith that will upgrade a weapon in exchange for a certain item.
    • a shadowy figure who will give you a powerful accessory in exchange for a permanent reduction of your max health.
    • a scientist studying the tower who wants you to be her test subject.
    • encounter a bunch of new fellow adventurers, whose dialog varies depending on your weight.
  • Three new enemy types (Imps, Feeder fairies, Thorny flowers).
  • Changes to the layout of the tower
    • There’s now an extra 20 encounters before the final boss, making the game slightly longer.
    • The way encounters are picked is now slightly less random to make difficulty more consistent between runs.
  • Improved the layout of the inventory screen.
  • After beating the game you have the option to continue in ‘endless mode’
    • lets you keep playing in order to see all the weight stages and to see how far you can go.
  • A whole heap of tweaks and balance changes.

As always, let me know what you think!

Uhh…I don’t think he’s into enormous girls, honestly

Not enormous… but at least completely immobile, 'cause there just barely mobile weight stage but not an immobile one, that’s what i’m talking about

Nice update, the accessories and new enemies make a fine addition, especially the imp and fairy duo. The only lacking thing imo is the visual representation of Queen of gluttony as she has only 3 weight stages and they look vastly inferior in size compared to the player’s.

Great work so far! The roguelike elements are really well done. Looking forward to continued progress :+1:

There’s a bug where if you upgrade your bow, the bow can no longer be used in battle. It can still be looked at in the inventory, but it’s basically gone.

Hello! Thank you for the update! :stars: My opinion is that the game is complete. Maybe you have any plans for a new game? :eyes: (If that’s what you want, sure)

Damn, everyone really wants new games recently huh?

love the latest update but i think you need to add new events that undo the progression of our character if they get too fat for the tower potentially adding the choice to go back down if we start getting way too big and making it a fight of our waistline and being trapped inciting the unique dangers of this place

Would anybody know how to beat the “Gastromancer” boss?

120

My strategy is:
–Make sure i have a sword that does at least 10 damage (preferably 15) with high accuracy
–Always take out the minions (cake monster and healing stew) asap
–Don’t try to eat any instance of a minion more than once unless you have really high agility. You will waste a lot of turns and could end up in a spawn loop
–Put most of my level-up points into Agility and/or Accuracy
