AMAZING GAME!!! the best 2D rougelike game i have ever played the music, gameplay and many more are amazing!!! even the demo is amazing! i hope the game will keep on growing and keep on getting updates.
YO IT'S ME FROM EARLIER I JUST BEAT DARK FIRE HOLY COW THAT FIGHT WAS SO DIFFICULT YET SO AMAZING AT THE SAME TIME(use that shiled that spawns skeletons when block or taking damage it will help alot)
There's a bug where it doesn't show how many times you've killed dark fire.
Also: finally got just stats and all 3 demonic boots! No idea how I got just stats tho, said slash wasn't an option even tho I didn't have it and had well over 150 contact dmg. Is there an enemy or effect that decreases contact dmg temporarily?
Now all I have to do is get every demonic item...
(I have 7/23)
Also turns out powerups (at least the main three) are additive, not multiplicative.
And lastly (yes, I know I talk too much but I think I have lots of interesting things to say), a fun fact! 31 of the 113 talents are dual-types! The most common type in a dual-type was neutral, in 17 of those 31 dual types! The most common dual-type was neutral-fire, with 6 occurrences! I was going to find the most common dual-type that does not contain neutral, but a bunch were tied with 2. 6 of the 11 epic talents are dual-types!
And actually lastly (I lied last time), there are 5 quest talents, 2 of which are dual-types.
If anyone realizes I've made a mistake, tell me! (Or don't if you want me to stop commenting lol)
After seeing the title card I thought Id try the game out for a bit and was blown away at how much depth and detail is packed in. I had a great time powering through each playthrough while learning more as I went along. Just finished the 3rd playthrough pulling off my highest level of 32 using the Wilhelm of Fluff. It might not be for everyone but I love the rogue gameplay, skills, items, upgrades and different characters! Furcifer as a character grew on me and was more helpful then I realized too! As someone who loves games with depth and replay-ability, I can't recommend it enough!
To shoot a bunch of tiny things? Ooh, good idea. I've mostly been using a slight bug exploit to constantly attack, but for that spell it would go through the full charge up before firing, so your way is probably better. Would likely generate a bunch of lag tho.
Just want to point out that the elemental res indicator is a bit confusing... It says vulnerability but has a shield icon... I mean just make it a bit more user friendly. Change vulnerability to... I don't know... something else, and add a key. From what I worked out, sword=takes more dmg and shield=takes less?
The game just keeps getting better and better, I'm so glad I found this!
Def one of my faves, right up there with Die in the Dungeon and Backpack Hero.
Except that you force us to choose items. Early on they're kinda bad. Plus the "don't take one" dialogue was pretty funny. I'm waiting for someone to find a bug exploit to get around this.
A nice solution would be to make Furcifer get angry if you don't pick an item, or maybe force you to pick an item if you pray (this way no item=no heal). Not sure what would work best.
Oh good, you don't have to choose one anymore (again).
Here are the floor mods I have discovered so far. There seem to be a couple of different types, I assume one group is major and one group is minor:
-------------------------------
Group 1 (major I think):
Speedy: Probably increased enemy move speed, though it might also increase the speed of other things.
Dangerous: Not entirely sure what this does, I assume increased enemy damage.
Elite: I imagine this increases the spawn rate of enchanted enemies.
-------------------------------
Group 2 (minor I think):
Frozen: More enemies (including common ones) spawn with the ice/water enchantment, might have additional effects? It also seems to cause all water (the terrain thing) to spawn as ice, which is slippery.
Stormy: More enemies (including common ones) spawn with the electricity enchantment, might have additional effects? Also creates a wind every now and then that blows you in whatever direction it's going.
Burning. More enemies (including common ones) spawn with the fire enchantment, might have additional effects? It also seems to remove all water.
-------------------------------
Floors can have multiple mods, perhaps one from each category?
how do you garuntee fire boss shows up I need to rematch them now that I know I need to stop spamming necromancy for the boss, because theres no enemies so my typical necromancy+knight+watergun won't work, still keeping the knight and watergun tho
just came back after a few months, last time I played was a round that got me to about 2k meters when skeleton gear came out, but now I come, and in my first run discover fire, and I am impressed, and very, very dead. I got 2 shot by fire, and now know I need to up my game or find some skeleton gauntlets, probably both
this seems like a great game for kids just came on here for some assets saw this game thought id give it a spin and im defiantly about to let my son give this a try im sure he would love this should keep him busy for some weeks lol great game fam great game!
I just spent half the day playing this, Love the game :D. I haven't gotten lost in a game like that in ages.
One comment I have is the stats seems to be a bit confusing. Intelect seems to effect the damage that wands do, but strength seems to effect contact damage? not sure what each time of damage releates too. If there was an in-game guide to what the effects are, even just a small wiki or something you can open in game to see what contact damage is, and how it works opposed to wand damage for example
You've got a solid foundation here, looking forward to seeing where this project goes! The fundamental gameplay loop is satisfying, and though I think there's some tweaking to do with the difficulty scaling as you get further into the run, overall things feel balanced and challenging without feeling too unfair.
That said, there is a significant difficulty spike at about 800m that seems to kill most of my runs. Random run-of-the-mill enemies seemingly go from dying easily and not hurting much to being nigh un-killable and obliterating me in 1-2 hits. I wouldn't complain if that gets smoothed out a little bit.
Out of curiosity, any plans for a "final boss" of sorts? Or a way to "complete" a run without dying?
Seems like Sir Honkalot dash build with high dash rate and dash dmg, phoenix badger + evasiveness + honking heal would be the only effective way to stay alive in later areas, by spamming healing sprints (using dodge to avoid the plentiful dmg that can easily kill in seconds) to kill enemies, using badger to survive oneshots. Any1 found anything else that might work?
An excerpt from the journal of fire: Level 24, forest of doom. "At first I was like, what the heck even is fire damage? I have 148 fire res and I'm the mayor of Asbestos. Then I was like, oh, that's fire damage. CURSE YOU, DECREASING MARGINAL UTILITY!!!"
I think it is just my computer it is old and I am getting a new one soon. i will follow up later. still a good game, it does still work on my pc tho so it is fine

Furcifer continue the good work
Does item quality affect trinkets, equipment, or both?
Both!
YO IT'S ME FROM EARLIER I JUST BEAT DARK FIRE HOLY COW THAT FIGHT WAS SO DIFFICULT YET SO AMAZING AT THE SAME TIME(use that shiled that spawns skeletons when block or taking damage it will help alot)
All you really need is gungeon gun and decent dashing skill. Hp is also nice.
Ofc there are many, many other ways to complete the fight, this is just how I usually do it.

btw scyth+skeleton talent(s)+burnie= LITERALL NOISY GOD
this game is literally the best action 2D exists. i can't wait for the game to release on steam. the graphics are amazing. the soundtrack is amazing.
the gameplay is from another world. 100000000000/10
Thank you soo much! Working hard on it. I'm passing the praise to our composer :)
Probably one of the best itchio games I've ever played, love the constant updates and just how fun and indepth the game is!
Thank you so much Chaos! :)
Dang, didn't expect the man himself to respond

Thank you so much! Really means a lot. We are working hard on the full release! :)
I have been putting hours in on this and its only the demo 🥹 Im having a blast
Lol I've made 13 out of the last 15 comments (14 out of 16 counting this one). Just noticed. Probably not gonna stop lol.
UPDATE: did just delete one tho.
I got 3 legendaries from one chest... Even with Santa Claws I'm probably going to die from Furcifer's mood, but still no regrets.
Also... lighting shrooms can teleport when sleeping.
Love this game, got hooked on it and been playing ever since, keep up the good work!
I actually managed to survive the elite forest of death. How? A little thing I call NEVER STOP MOVING. EVER.
that is a quite effectivve strat lol
also autoclicker + the flame from the boss = op
To shoot a bunch of tiny things? Ooh, good idea. I've mostly been using a slight bug exploit to constantly attack, but for that spell it would go through the full charge up before firing, so your way is probably better. Would likely generate a bunch of lag tho.
Wow, it's a freaking machine gun (even more so than the gungeon gun) of lag.
Also: I got just one thing to say:
Thermite: Burn stacks.
Just want to point out that the elemental res indicator is a bit confusing... It says vulnerability but has a shield icon... I mean just make it a bit more user friendly. Change vulnerability to... I don't know... something else, and add a key. From what I worked out, sword=takes more dmg and shield=takes less?
At last! Monster-based elemental res!
The game just keeps getting better and better, I'm so glad I found this!

But seriously, great game!
A nice solution would be to make Furcifer get angry if you don't pick an item, or maybe force you to pick an item if you pray (this way no item=no heal). Not sure what would work best.
Oh good, you don't have to choose one anymore (again).
For some reason it won't let me submit my scores on the leaderboard, is there some kind of button I press on the game over page?
Speedy Forest of THE END, lucky me...
I mean look at those shrooms go! I can only imagine what this would be like with *1.5 enemy speed from Furcifer...
Ah well goodbye level 35 Wilhelm, it was fun while it lasted...
113 int and 40ish block, then got mage armor...

The improved ice/normal enchantments for enemies are nice, but they don't aim, making them easy to avoid. Maybe make them aim?
this is fun, just wish it wasn't so laggy for me. pretty cool though
how do i save my progress ?
i seem to lose everything everytime i play
Maybe your browser deletes the cookies? If you're on Windows try the download version or just download from Steam
got a run where the scarecrow was enchanted with sword and it almost one shot me on spawn
Can't find the full dark or electric sets, or any nature items. Do they exist?
Normal electric and dark all don't have full sets. Nature and light don't have any.
how do you garuntee fire boss shows up I need to rematch them now that I know I need to stop spamming necromancy for the boss, because theres no enemies so my typical necromancy+knight+watergun won't work, still keeping the knight and watergun tho
It is just chance, there is no way, just always be ready, also use the dog for that boss, the teleport helps alot
just came back after a few months, last time I played was a round that got me to about 2k meters when skeleton gear came out, but now I come, and in my first run discover fire, and I am impressed, and very, very dead. I got 2 shot by fire, and now know I need to up my game or find some skeleton gauntlets, probably both
also I have no data because i used to use crazygames
but thats not bad thing, besides the normal type sword and skeleton gauntlets, I miss those and their OP powers
got fungeon devil using knight+necromancy build, where did fire go?
If one repeatedly leftclicks with the wooden spoon, the game lags
this seems like a great game for kids just came on here for some assets saw this game thought id give it a spin and im defiantly about to let my son give this a try im sure he would love this should keep him busy for some weeks lol great game fam great game!

contact damage is damage you deal when you hit a enemy. wand damage is how much your weapon/primary does to enemys

Hey, have you checked the top builds in the leaderboard? you can click on the entries to see the builds
Thanks!
Y e s
This game is really cool!
I remember when I once died to a scarecrow (he training dummy thing) with the normal modifier (the one that shoots knives).
An excerpt from the journal of fire: Level 24, forest of doom. "At first I was like, what the heck even is fire damage? I have 148 fire res and I'm the mayor of Asbestos. Then I was like, oh, that's fire damage. CURSE YOU, DECREASING MARGINAL UTILITY!!!"
