    The "You hear a strange sound coming from afar" message means that you can teleport to a free room. You just use the teleport stone and it had a yellow arrow pointing where to go. You missed it in the first level. Usually the loot is pretty good.

    I love this game, but it solidified for me the trope I can't stand about this genre, and that's the stack of levels that's the same every time. Dead cells had branching paths, and that mixed it up a little, but these games need to get away from literally the same path every single time. Everything else is random, so "a good run" is bullshit, in my humble opinion.
    But clearly the buying power disagrees.
    I just don't like repetitive shit.
    On the other hand, this Roguelike kept me sane during lock down. This was a fantastic game. Is a fantastic game. And the stacking, that I believe is so critical to roguelikes, is so solid. Guns multiplying, fantastic effects, fantastic synergy. It's dope as fuck.

      Dude, me too! I'm SO surprised at how much better this looks now! I was really confused for a minute; I had to actually look it up and make sure that this did indeed use to suck, I thought maybe I was thinking of a different roguelite cause it's so night and day from how it was.

  • @TheMrDewil

    Oh, I see that they've changed some things since I last played it. I see some new items. Also you have to choose reward after beating boss, it wasn't the case in the past when everything they dropped was up for grabs. And I take it that there are twice as much bosses now, at least it looks like that in a character selection screen. Well, I guess no harm in diving back into it then.

    If you step on the worms they drop money. Some of the weapons have tracking wich can be great further in. There are some nice creative combos in this game. Get the buttler/tuxedo pet guy and have him die from damage and he will stop taking your coins and will drop a ton in return.

    when you see the umbrella box right at the start with the fist gun pick up, you open a secret room you have to use the teleport to get to. you can see it on your mini map. also the smaller flyers drop worms when killed, if you step on them they give you coins.

    Played this game like 2 years ago, fun for a while but the game is horribly balanced like you said, enemies become bullet sponges while the player has screen filling weapons that make it very hard to play. I stopped playing the game because after a while it's just a grind to get new upgrades or room even at a point where you've basically already seen everything.

  • @someduder5044
    @someduder5044 2 роки тому

    NA is a fun little game, but the only reason I'm not buying it (Sailed the high seas for it) is the completely bizarre way of unlocking bosses/stages - you have to be incredibly lucky to unlock the final set of bosses. The game isn't that difficult, but it requires you to juggle the order/chaos meter so you unlock the secret room at just the right stage in order to fight the correct boss instead of the regular one.
    Fuck that.

    I don't remember how I learned about this game but I played the free demo way back when and bought it when it came out, and it is a fun game. It has solid gameplay, great pixel art and the soundtrack is even better now with them replacing the tracks with newer ones (they are less repetitious). The only issue is too many "joke" guns.
