Ask us anything! We are working hard on getting the game ready for release and it should be available to purchase in the next ~2 months. Please let us know if you have questions or comments about the game! We want to make sure it is in the best condition it can be in! :)

How the hell are we supposed to use the shortcut map? And what does it actually do?

[l3ademeister]

Hi, first of all you have a great game with a really unique idea. I love it.

Are you planing Mod Support (Steam Workshop)?

Will there be a ingame wiki explaining game mechanics and items?

What about meta progression? I mean unlockabel outside of runs like new chars, items, dungeons, enemys, harder difficulty settings ?

What about daily/weekly challenge runs with the same drops, enemys & events for all? Maybe with alternated rule sets?

Thast all... I am looking forward to the early access release.

Right-click on it outside of combat! It lets you create a shortcut between rooms!

Yes, mod support is planned! There are already some mods being created for the game.

Yes, there will be a "Item Atlas" that works like an in-game wiki.

Yes, the game will have meta progression! There's a whole overworld that is under development.

Love the idea of weekly challenge runs but we don't have immediate plans for this!

how many characters will you make
I could see each one having a kinda starting meta, like I could see a pig with some bricks to start a building run...as well as be a funny reference LOL

[Lumios]

Are there any in-game item of note that you are considering rebalancing before the full release? Either because they're just bad or too broken/powerful\exploitable?

We are planning to make 7 in total! They all have interesting and unique mechanics!

A lot of rebalancing is planned! I think mana and magic needs a buff!

[BrenTenkage]

I think having the ability to start with say a mana using character might make mana more viable. Since the main weakness is having to build up the mana stuff through luck

So, I have a lot of questions and observations, but before I overload the thread with (more) text, I should first ask: do you have a project roadmap? Something that shows and overall plan of what you hope to be working on and when you hope to get to it, when you think that particular part of the project will be finished, just some very approximate stuff. All subject to change depending on unforeseen things happening, of course. And if not, is there any way you could release one? It would answer several questions before anyone needs to ask them.

Are you working on making unblockable damage more balanced?
Will leveling up give more hp/other bonuses?

[Greasy Pete]

Is there a rough estimate as to when the game will hit early access/sale?

We have a roadmap internally. We will release it in the next week or two as soon as we announce early access!

Different characters do level up differently! We will work to fix unlockable damage for sure.
