    Hey Wanderbots, thanks for playing the game again!
    Since last time we added a lot of new stuff and we've been building some core systems for the future as well!
    I have to agree with you on the Upgrades part, we're currently in the middle of making new upgrades! We have completely changed how we think about upgrades internally so you can expect much more interesting upgrade in the future and a bigger sense of "builds". This is one of our next biggest points to tackle!
    About the currency usage, right now in the Demo there's no unlock system so we just let you use the in-run shop freely. As the game evolves the idea is that the in-run shop will be a late-game unlock, so during early game you'll only have the Mementos Shop to spend your pebbles currency. The in-run shop will be unlocked later on when you have bought most Mementos Upgrades and then you'll go from spending in the Mementos Shop to spend on the in-run shop, and that'll function as kind of a "limit break" where you'll be able to get stronger then what the Mementos shop lets you.
    We're also working on more events that will spawn during the run that will give you different rewards and offer cooler challenges :)
    Leveling is a bit slow because frankly we don't have a lot of upgrades in the upgrade pool to work with, but as the game progresses we will keep reworking our XP Curve.
    Yes, you do get iFrames and the upgrades that influence DURATION increases all your iFrames duration as well
    Proc Chance works on ANYTHING that has a random chance of working, so Blood Bag, Critical, Chance to Explode, Archer's Keychain...
    Little Mac might be getting some new skills soon as well 😉
    Also you didn't try do Dodge and Press Jump after. 😉
    But thanks again for playing the game! Please please please wait until we release the game before playing again! :P
    (Spoilers: There's A TON of stuff we haven't released and we're keeping for release)

      Looking good, can't wait to check it out. Two things seem weird to me - no pause during the upgrade selection screen (why is it on a timer at all, at least in singleplayer?) and no pause when pressing ESC. I thought, ever since Vampire Survivors came out, that was already the industry standard for this genre?
      I get it if you don't want pauses in multiplayer but there really is no reason for a permanent pause during upgrade selection process when playing alone.

    Risk of Rain 2, is what I immediately think of. The game in the video here seems like a simplified version of RoR2, which could be a good thing for some.

    This game feels like a diamond in the rough. Core gameplay is fun, but the upgrades are... painful. I agree that the numbers don't feel very impactful for how slow the leveling is, but more than anything they feel so plain. There should definitely be some upgrades specific to each weapon, and more upgrades to your secondary in general

      @@adgd I'm glad to hear it! It does feel like all the upgrades are tuned for the assault rifle and the upgrades only go towards "shoot better". The most divergent upgrade is the Teddy Bear's aura, which isn't particularly flashy at all. Just would be nice if upgrades could do different things, like something with your dash or double jump or whatever else.

    • @EpsilonRosePersonal
      @EpsilonRosePersonal 11 месяцев назад +1

      @@adgd One thing to consider is that any damage upgrades should be measured in break points-how many shots or reloads does it take to kill a thing-because that's what a player will actually feel. If an upgrade doesn't cross a break point, it's not an upgrade.

    The currency thing is basically a dealbreaker for me. If the game wants me to choose between more fun and dynamic runs or metaprogression then it doesnt feel like a tradeoff it feels like Im being artificially slowed down. The game looks a lot better than the last time you played it so hopefully that kind of stuff gets fixed up.

    Im a bit worried about this game, back when you did the previous video it didn't seem to have any "bullet heaven" at all, it's just risk of rain but with more stat ups and less "cool effects" type of items, and as you said, just minor stat upgrades doesn't cut it.... Doesn't seem to have improved that aspect since then. You either need many more often levelups and faster progression (more bulletheaven) with interesting automatic weapons that just blast everywhere just as you walk... Or you need many more interesting effects and wierd combos (more risk of rain). This middle point seems, honestly, like the worst of both worlds.

    • @adgd
      @adgd 11 месяцев назад +2

      Yes, unfortunately you're correct we haven't worked on the Upgrades part of the game since last time but this is because this game is extremely complex and our team is not super huge. What we've been doing was making a lot of the underlying systems that are required for our future plans. But since then work has started on newer and cooler upgrades, so you can expect more soon :)

    where this losses its bullet heaven roots is that it doesn't introduce new exciting weapons or abilities, you are left with the same starting weapon from the beginning to the end. maybe it could have another game mode where things get crazy and exciting based on the cards you pull with bibles or garlic or maybe even weapons from the ratchet and clank series where things turn into chickens and explode

      @@kroooassant9899 nicer than risk of rain? I don't think so, at least not what I've seen right now. Less than 20 upgrades in a run and almost all of them are just 5% faster fire rate or 10% damage up... feels kinda boring in comparison to throwing random rockets, sparking electricity around, triple jumping, healing on crits.... Maybe it's different strokes for different folks, I guess, but imo this is inferior as is.

    Definitely a diamond in the rough. I think the core gameplay is fun but needs a lot more work. The price of upgrades needs a readjustment. I think the upgrades need a rework. I think they should also implement like a shield when you enter the shop so you can actually look and read the items, but don't allow passive healing from upgrades to occur so people don't cheese it. Or either just have everything freeze when you enter and bring up a menu of the items in the shop. Right now, there isn't time to look and purchase unless you go from the very start when there's less enemies.

      Freezing doesn't work with Multiplayer. I'd say instead make any player within a certain radius of the shop take no damage, but also be unable to do damage. best way to give players the calm needed to think about that, while also keeping them from Cheesing it

    My problem with this demo is it works based on the number of enemies you kill. If you don't kill any enemies you can runs circles of the map grinding for hours. Your stats go up very very slowly and I was sure some things were only applying once or incorrectly and the meta progress is completely too expensive. That said I think the dev is on to something here, they can build it out and I wish them the best.

      Basically an unreal editor using the fortnite assets.
      Epic used to provide the Unreal Editor with the Unreal and Unreal Tournament series in the past, and this spawned a bunch of total conversion mods that later become their own games. So I feel this is perhaps the start of the same.
