great game
you are better than that asshole on steam thx for it being free
I love the simplicity of this game!
I'm sorry for all the wild-card controversy and I hope you someday put this on steam on your own!
It's honestly a brilliant concept that is already buyable as it is
umm if you spam respawn fast enough you will respond at 0 hp and can't level up or anything and you become immortal
I know you have a their on steam
But I do hope to eventually see this on there
It's vvery inventive
NERF FREEZE
its op if you have a lot of them in your deck like 3 THE ENEMYS CANT MOVE AT ALL
just lode a lot of low costing stuff and your gold
Great fun, I hope you manage to get the content thief banned from Steam
If you have three freezes you can just spam time stop to never die
Very nice game! I revisited it a few times now, and today I officially solved it. Here is how it's done easily:
faces:
All cards cost 1
Pierce cards bounce
Bounce cards pierce
Additional bullet per shot
Then I had 2 "refill energy cards", so I could spam, and 3 of the "4 piercing shots" card. Every time I pressed it just cleared the whole board.
For the second half of my game I got a legendary card "add one bullet every time you shoot". I combined this with "next shot bounces" and "next shot is a bomb".
I created a wall of explosion and made it to wave 60 before the lag got problematic :)
i just got an unbeatable run using freeze, next shot bounces, shoot one bullet twice and shoot as many times as it has been played.
also had the bouncing shots pierce perk.
gave me a perma laser beam straight down the middle xD
got to a point where i had 4 free cards which gave me enough time to create and login to an account xD
although this meant that i didnt see what round i got to :(
Great game, would love to play more.
Maybe it could have more variety like parameters which limit what cards you can use to be more interesting like "no piercing" or "no love."
Maybe a stats screen after you die could show which cards you used through the whole run, and which one you used the most, these are just ideas tho.
i suck damn
only went up to level 2
I played the "+1 bullet each time played" like 100 times because I hade 2 refill energy and all other free cards so it shot for sooo long and I got to wave 34 then I got bored and stopped
Awesome game, if you want to keep working on it I would love to help out of pure spite for the one dev releasing a copy on steam.
sooooo good please update and this is my high score
I cant get past 6 :( Amazing game tho.
I got 4 lock items in a row what is dis luck?
What the hell i was just spamming and no enemys are going through WHO ATE MAH ENEMYS
You were spamming ice right? If so that's your problem
I think one thing I'd change, aside from balancing, is so that, when spending a card in a "slot", the new card is inserted into the free "slot", not to the left. Really confusing and leads to me using a lot of unwanted (at the moment cards)
If that was intended tho, well, it certainly works XD
So fun and addictive, but needs endgame content. Is easy to survive forever.
love it
This is a fantastic game and I had a lot of fun playing it
banger
found a bug, when I died and re-spawned it spawned me back at the previous life and I could die
4 freeze and one bounce bounefit,All cost free.it's crazy.
Very fun, pretty, hard game. I love the art for this
lovely, lovely game!!
Which engine did you use?
Cool game
Found the Invincible Build
Required Perks:
Bouncing Bullet Pierces
Love Last 2x
Optional Perks:
Choose from 4 cards
Regeneration
Cards (In Activation Order):
Bounce Buff
Next Attack Shoots Love (Rare buff from locked card)
Double Attack
9 Shots
Any Free Card
Once your deck is like that, forget about the other 3 cards in the left, put your mouse in the middle of the screen , and just hit the R key 5 times every time the enemies go past the half way on your screen.
The double 9 shots will turn 99% of the enemies on screen to friendly and any ones left would get absolutely demolished by others.
niceeee
nice game , good job!
don't think I ever left a comment but I always enjoyed this, nice and simple. I'm a fan of your work!
I love this! Simple and addictive. After many tries, I reached an undefeatable state with this combo:
1-2x Shoot 6 bouncing bullets
1-2x Next attack shoots twice
1x Refill energy to full
1-2x Stop enemies for 2 seconds
... The rest of the deck padded with 0- or 1-cost cards
+ Bouncing attacks pierce
+ Regenerate hearts
+ Pick from 4 cards
I could manipulate my hand so that I could just hammer a single key and cycle through my deck as fast as I wanted, wiping all enemies from the screen while they were frozen in place! Very satisfying to pull off.
I got so powerful I broke the game
I had 3 freeze one bounce cards, all free and I spammed them so hard enemies stopped spawning
lol.
what do i win?
My upvote, and respect.
Amazing game!
The graphics fit it so well and the gameplay while simple, is complex! Great work on this cohesive piece!
I
I bet you'll still need hearts. No seriously I am dead in this position, and this is a soft-lock, however this is more entertaining the other soft-lock I found (If you start a match fast enough after you die or open the game the first wave just won't spawn).
Dose it lag?
Sort of a bug: I temperately froze the game by spamming the 2 second freeze card. I believe that is since the frozen time stacks. Remove the stack!
