    @NL thank you for checking this game out! I bought it monday, been sick all week and been jamming it hard.
    For clarity's sake:
    The coin symbol is the chance to gain coins. The Athena boon symbol while similar is the shield with the four little stars around it.
    The bag of money symbol is the shop (Charon) sign. When you have 150 its basically guaranteed that you can get a random boon upgrade.
    The pac-man looking thing is an upgrade, and it's the guy next door to hades that you can spend the gems on, though you can also use the dude in the lounge to exchange gems for other stuff you need.
    The titan blood is for specific weapon upgrades in house of hades, which you'll unlock I believe after you get the gun, which is the 8-key weapon you haven't unlocked yet.
    Also, whenever you see a grey circle with an exclamation mark TAKE IT, it's a powerful friendly NPC where you can grab some powerful free shit ^_^

  • @evansageser6943
    @evansageser6943 4 года назад +9

    NL, quick advice on that fight you died on.
    Those Elysium warriors will infinitely spawn until you destroy the Butterfly Swarm. Fortunately they spawn as the little eyeballs, so if you can keep them from picking up their weapons and becoming warriors you can divide your attention much more effectively.
    You basically lose if you end up having to fight a full complement of warriors at once though.

  • @yamrieandebonglow854
    @yamrieandebonglow854 4 года назад

    I really hope this stays for a while, its awesome watching you play a game I have a tone of love for.
    5 tips from someone who has been through the game multiple times and was early to grab it on epic:
    1: Dash a tone more, you need to remember it gives you invincibility frames. Getting an attack upgrade for your dash can win you the game.
    2: don't just go for damage, crit and other effects can be way better late game.
    3: push enemies into walls, it does a lot of damage and can stun.
    4: armoured enemies don't stagger, you have to destroy the armour before you can get any form of stun or knock back.
    5: hammer upgrades are lush.

    • @yamrieandebonglow854

    I doubt Ryan will see this but a good rule of thumb is, if the god has a planet named after them, then they are Roman. Except for Uranus because they were panicking when it came to naming it because King George's Planet didn't fit the mythological theme and picked a greek Titan instead of a Roman god and they didn't want to bother to change it again after that was brought to their attention :/
