    It is disappointing to see that my favorite deckbuilding rougelike is not on the list, it is called "Indies Lies". I have played Slay the Spire, and the way you upgrade cards is just smite them on the smith, and it will change it so slightly (once per card with the exception of that Knight card where you can upgrade it endlessly) in Indies Lies though, you can punch your card and put 3 up to 5 max runes. Runes is like materia in FF7 where runes can differ to give your card elemental effects, Innate, make it zero cost, etc. I've seen a Rouge (class in the game) build where there are only 2 key cards, and you can loop them, where whenever you use this 0 cost card with high damage, the next card you play will return that card to your hand, and when you play that card, it will return the other. In Slay the Spire you can do loops too but with so many cards. Can you make a summary of that game? I believe it is free on mobile though the DLCs are not free, but you can play ads just to play an unlockable character for 1 run. There are currently 15 characters with 3 free starting mage classes. You can buy it on steam and when you buy it, all the DLC are included.

    Angel talking about giving lovable events to monsters that people struggle with is such genius design. For example, I hate fighting high level Kiwi because she occasionally just destroys my whole run, but if i beat her... She sets up a little board game RPG for me to play where she's the DM and it's the cutest damn thing I've ever seen. Reminds me of RPG Time, another indie game I'd highly recommend. Anyway, thanks for talking to Angel and showing off this awesome game! Great video and chat.

    I was an 80s kid growing up in the Commodore 64 and NES era, so I'm an extremely jaded old fart now. I imagine the dopamine reward systems in my brain that respond to games are all atrophied and crusted over. I just didn't think games like this were "for me" anymore, but I'm really glad I gave it chance because this game knocked all that crust off and made me feel like that 6 year old sitting in front of that crappy CRT TV with a NES controller again. Take all the bad shit that's been happening to the gaming industry over the past few decades, the uninspired games-as-a-service AAA schlock, the predatory monetization, the cut and paste insipid sameness of it all, TVRUHH feels like the perfect counter argument to what gaming has become to remind us all of what it could have been instead.

    I didn't play much of the other deck building roguelike But slay the spire has runes, Unique cards and ability for each class Anddd many ways to break the game,(almost inifinite loops,bursts of armor and damage etc) especially with the daily challenge additional rules (Yayyyy!) I am saying it has it's own things,that other games might not have. Also i like the atmosphere and love this game.

    For as many roguelikes there are out there, I still enjoy them. But I wish they were more classified as a sub genre than a main genre because finding games with roguelike elements is tough since a calm strategic game is as much of a roguelike as a high paced action game and anything between. I say this because I like shmups and I liked the idea of a roguelike shmup and this game looks ssuuppper fun. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

    I don't even like roguelites much (sorry to be pedantic but if it's ain't a "traditional roguelike", it's a roguelite in my book), but I absolutely adored this game, that's how damn incredible this dev is. Though to be fair I absolutely adore danmaku shmups and Touhou games, so it might be just how well it does in that area as I can mostly ignore the roguelite aspect. One of the things shmups really rely on is a low amount of top-notch quality that's fun to repeat and master, so it's pretty crazy how we have here this shmup that has near limitless content _and_ excels at the shmup angle. Most roguelite shmups really, and I mean *really* skimp on the shmup gameplay because it's a difficult genre to incorporate roguelite elements into, which again, just goes to speak to how much of a master this dev is at game design. My only real issue with the game was an onboarding one. The game forces you to an easy difficulty the first time through and you have to beat the game before you can unlock a reasonable one, but the one you're locked to at the beginning if you're a shmup player already is *boring* and feels longer than most shmups, so I almost bounced off the game and it actually took a discussion with the dev on r/shmups to convince me to try it again on the higher difficulty, and once I did that I was hooked.

    Small correction: karma does not directly affect future monster levels, but it can feel like it does. More karma means more monster choices and while those are usually of higher level the player can still choose to continue battling lower level monsters. However, monster level in a run will never deplete barring certain gifts or events. Karma is always strictly beneficial unless you are looking for anomaly.

    • @randomizedrandy
      @randomizedrandy 22 дні тому

      To add on to this: Monster level in story mode is directly based on the levels you pick... Picking a lvl4 boss puts the lowest level boss in the next stage at lvl4... That is unless the game feels like you're scaling it too fast/too slowly... In which case it'll bump you towards the expected level... This does mean that the strategy mentioned in the video of performing badly in low level fights is irrelevant... Since you're already keeping the level low by choosing low level fights... Similarly... Performing badly in a high level fight will not save you from the consequences of going so high... However the game does allow for an out... Aside from the level pulling itself back sometimes... You also have the Self Doubt event... Which triggers if you perform badly on a high level fight (relative to rain difficulty and run progress)... Allowing you to either embrace your predicament and earn karma... Or lower the level to be safer... This triggers once per run so you would need to use it carefully... (The event still triggers if you reach near the max level for the current difficulty without performing badly... Allowing you to still reap the benefits from it even if you're not struggling...)

    Something I really love about this game and by extention Hades is that dying is an actual mechanic, not like roguelike games where the game just restarts or roguelites where you just buy upgrades, but it is used to move on the plot, learn about the 'monsters' you are fighting, on top of the whole upgrading your character.

    While I love the gameplay in Revita, I had some qualms with the design principle The gimmick should be a risk vs reward system, but given the fact that more upgrades are generally optimal and you don't have much way to judge how hard upcoming rooms will be, in practice it's only a reward system where if you do well you get to have more goodies. Ultimately this felt less interesting than the decision making aspects of other roguelites and made it harder to stay engaged with each run even though I enjoy the bosses and evasion based gameplay that's at the core
