dev here: SO GLAD YOU COVERED GENOME GUARDIAN! (and quite well I might add, considering the playerbase expanded by 20% during the 4 hours this video was out)
To those watching, it's true what it said about this "only being the beginning" - he did NOT beat the game, that was the intro/tutorial. The game is MUCH MORE than just "white turret sits in the center of a circle" - there's lots of different turrets, modes, perks, and a big story that opens up as you progress!
I've given it a try today and its been a BLAST
All the unique combos and depth progression is truly amazing. I cannot play it more today 😢
My friends are also having a blast!
Great game with awesome gameplay and a cute style!
I will love to see how the game develops and follow along on its incredible journey.
Hello dev, i hecking love this game, bought it almost instantly! Is there any way to sign up for beta testing for future updates or even games?
@@cbbloveseverybody8111 Click that Discord button in-game and you can easily chat with me there. I will say that there isn't really any sort of "beta" the game goes through, but I could always use more people reporting bugs (there's a channel set up for that).
@@cbbloveseverybody8111 Press that indigo button on the main menu and you can easily chat with me there - I will say now though that I don't really do "beta" phases, but I could always use more people finding bugs!
An idea I thought up for Wander's complaint about getting weapons in shops while they're unable to be used: allow a 'finished' weapon with 4 letters already to have each letter 'reinforced' (there's probably a better name for it) and it increases the base stats, to allow for additional scaling. So, a weapon with an A that gets a second A, will reinforce that A and give a small boost to accuracy, damage, and speed (since it's the pistol). A T will get AoE, damage, and burn. So, when you've got nothing left to buy, you can still slowly reinforce your weapons. Hell, maybe they reinforce endlessly, and you can somewhat keep up with enemy scaling on a God run.
Once all 4 letters have been 'reinforced' once, you can do it again, but you can't, say, reinforce one A 4 times and never reinforce any Ts. It's gotta stay even.
ACTG are bases in DNA and tmaking weapons with them are kinda cute
Was just about to comment about ATCG as well, love how they were used as only 4 bases with combinations for upgrades, kinda showing how our measly 4 bases irl still make a ton of variations based on the combinations in all lifeforms ^^
@@KiwiSenseiYT to be fair i secretly wished for the orden in which you take them also gave different results. Now its just total of letters. Way more work though
One of my favorite things about Wander is that he'll randomly pull out words you'd never hear outside a college thesis paper like "Cromulent"
Oh trust me, Genome Guardian can get extremely crazy. Tier 4 weapons are already pretty strong (and have some crazy effects) but it's important to draw out their strengths with the upgrades. But if you really want to get crazy builds, you need to unlock some of the perks. The dev really loves to put all kinds of weird ideas into the game that work surprisingly well in the gameplay context. And not everything is balanced. There is a perk that lets you wipe the entire screen once per wave when you overheat for example, which makes it a great panic button on demand. And there is a turret that constantly changes its stats on the background music (more intense music equals bigger and faster bullets).
That changing stats thing sounds a lot like Beat Hazzard. Looking forward to seeing it when I manage to buy the game.
Looks like I’m staying up another hour and a half about
Truly
I was not prepared to hear "dies like the rest" at 6 am in a mc donalds
"Feels like bouncy needs to be paired with range to be worth it"
Try to get focus and then get CCCG with sticky trust me.
You turn into a nuclear power plant.
Then either scale attack speed, dmg or projectile count.
"he's styling on me, and I don't like it" 😂😂😂
Having the ion laser bounce is only a good idea if you also have a -accuracy upgrade; it looks like when a "projectile" bounces it heads straight for the center of your turret; so having bounce may make it not go straight and instead turn the arena into a resident evil style chamber(sticky may also be an idea to add on if it bounces like I think it does)
I’m really excited by how much different variety this game seems to possess and I really like how you set into choosing different things knowing it might change your gun system, but it will also add you the ability to get new unlocks
This game is great I love thanks for introducing me to it there is some very op combos and it gets very insane very fast
1:08:48 “it’s purely a defensive maneuver”
You’re playing a tower defense game, I think *everything* is a defensive maneuver.
Sometimes a lot in the mood for a long video but today I definitely was
Been having a ton of fun with this one!
This one looks awesome
I think a really nice feature would be to have individual fire hotkeys for each gun, so you can fire only one weapon at a time, instead of having to always fire all of them.
You beat games, I beat it to games. We are not the same.
I got this game because of you and I gotta say it's kinda easy. At least so far. TTTT is kinda insane with increased explosion duration or increased fire rate.
"at least so far" ho ho ho
Curious what a weapon with all 4 letters would look like.
Its a spammy rainbow dualshot grenade launcher called the four horsemen.
Its pretty busted 😊
Whats the song at around 33:59 ?
Whoa Aimlab ROGUELIKE
Really wanted to see the bounce laser. Will try
Dev here: unfortunately (due to how Hitscan is programmed) it's actually not possible 😔 maybe someday it could be though, I'd love if it was.
@@AAAlpherior You could add a factor in bounce : bounce amount to make laser actually viable with bounce.
If you do this you can make the turret upgrade that doubles range on guns with bounce also increase bounce amount
@@AAAlpherior thanks for the heads up. I'll try the game out here in a bit looking forward too it. :) also works great on steam deck so far.
This game looks really neat despite the art style that i don't really care for. The weapon upgrading system is what really sells it for me. You gotta love when games like this innovate because that really helps them stand out from the crowd and bring some fresh things to the table.
On a different note, it's really annoying not being able to hear any sound effects though. That really lowers the quality of the video significantly. I hope you'd consider the fact that it's more enjoyable as a viewer to hear them instead of them being muted.
lol what a whacky up grade, ya know i had the same thought when you saw what sticky did i thought OOH shot gun that could be rly nice, you get shotgun, it is nice, THEN you get a bouncy ball...alright i think i like this game, its whacky
1:15:21 homing nukes? 🥹
no 😢
broke at „with the right upgrades“. goodbye 🖖
Just made the math, the guardian turret has 69 different weapon available
The position order kinda of doesn't matter, if you get the first weapon as an A and the second as a C it'll be AC
And if you get a C and then an A, it becomes AC as well, implying it's just the amount of ACGT in your weapon
Therefore I don't think it's 69
I remember there was one game Wander played a while back, with similar visuals and somewhat similar playstyle. Any1 can tell me the name of the game plz, trying to find it. IIRC in the game everything is kinda like fuzzy ink blobs, you're defending the base in the middle, can add different turrets to it and they automatically shoots at the enemies. Wander had a whole series for it. Thx 🙏
Flerp, probably.
@@wanderbots yup that’s the one. Thx Wander!
