In the workbench, the first column is the item you can craft, the other columns are the ingredients. The ingredients you have a highlighted. When you have all ingredients, the craft button will activate.
I too immediately clicked wtf it was trying to say. IT really could use like an arrow or equals sign between finished and components. Those colors are like 1-2 shades from each other. VERY close to damn near the same at a glance.
Is the game turn based or played in real time but really stilted?
I can't tell by the video and I feel like he would have specified before 6 minutes in if he was going to.
This game has been on my radar so long, and it's absolutely sick. Glad you can get more coverage!
Honestly, the last two or three years I only played games recommended/reviewed by Splat and I'm not planing to change that ...thanks, dude!
The qusiemorth sounds like the warp.
This is also the game I was hyped for this half of 2023, aside from Mars Tactics. This will scratch a doom / tarkov itch for people who don't necessary like or play those games and prefer roguelites.
I loved my experience with the prologue, but my experience was basically like this: If I exchanged fire or was hit even once, there was a 60% chance I had a fracture, and a 30% I was bleeding. There are not enough inventory spaces to warrant carrying two stacks of splints and bandages (each). By the time I died, or reached the end of a run, I had nothing left to use.
The devs recently hot fixed it so that a care package is dropped on a clones first mission, but even without that, the only real way to prepare is to spend several in game weeks mass producing morphine and first aid kits from your ship to trade with some of the companies for a meager amount of gear, food, and medicine. Sure, all the medicine and food you can make is free, but when you are spending long swathes of time just waiting for what amounts to currency, only to get some gear, only for it to be no different from most of the other gear, it feels like there is no progression at all. The stat bonuses don't matter when every shotgun pellet is as deadly as a 50 BFG and the strongest armor is as useful as wet toilet paper.
I'm not gonna lie, the early access kind of sucks. Stoneshard is more respecting of the player's time, and their biggest critique is the save system (though there are plenty of free beds in the game.)
I don't know how much the game changed from when this video was made, but it really depends on who you fight at what time. If you went in guns blazing against Tezctlan then you have almost no chance since early on there's barely if no cold resistances available. I recommend fighting low tech enemies like church of revelation or other which have a lot of obsessed or melee enemies early on, since they also have a high chance of having splints, bandages and smokes on them, the idea is you go into a mission and gather as much of that stuff as you can, while you go and disassemble their clothes in the process.
If you want to be friends with them, the first few missions don't really matter on the factions which are neutral with you (0) because you can just do two missions for them and they would be in the green again.
It's more about dividing the loot you want on each run, too many enemies with mediocre weapons? Save space for the materials their armour gives. Strong enemies? Equip that armour and save loot for 2-3 new weapons you can keep or sell.
Quasimorphosyse is... Warp infestation.
One thing you didn't mention about high level quasimorph state is racking up metal music.
The demo a few months back was incredible, if not a little too RNG based. Aside from that, I've been looking forward to this game since you first showcased it.
Went looking to buy and it saw it's still got a few days. Def picking it up soon as it releases. Been following the game on your channel for a while, and it just keeps getting better and better. Def 'Stoneshard' vibes from it also, along with Tarkov and others you mentioned. Thanks for the follow up Cat!
Got it on my wishlist, don't know if I'll get it during early access but will definitely be checking it out near full release.
this game has quite a few mechanics in common with Stoneshard (my favorite indie game ever) so I might check it out!
12:32 The knee? Oh no! your adventuring days!
I'm glad to see the progress this game has made. I played the earlier demo on steam and it had many good things going for it.
Very excited about this game, been on my radar for a long time.
Thanks for showcasing! ^^
I loved the reference to coming back on the shield or under the shield.
idk if you know about this splatty but you can change your movement mode, it's right beside your health, stealth movement gives you 1 AP per turn but you're harder to spot/draw aggro, walking mode gives you 2 AP per turn and running mode that gives you 3 AP per turn but you can't access your inventory or interact with the environment, you spent half the video on stealth move :p
That's why the fast quasimorph got him lol.
I will be getting this game for sure been waiting on this one :)
I've been playing the prologue quite a bit, truly a fantastic game, can't wait for the whole product to come out
i'm mad keen for this
I love the demo for this game. Thanks for the suggestion!
>"My Most Anticipated Roguelike of the Year is Here!!!"
>it's not here until oct 2nd
you've lied to me again, splattercat
went and watched a bit of one of your streams man, you look different to my mental picture of you in a good way tbh xD
Dang, the premise and mechanics sound awesome. I'm not done with the video yet, but if they had a HQ building/enhancement system that would be nuts. Looking forward to seeing what comes out with the game.
Im really waiting for this
Giving me strong Sci-Fi Stoneshard vibes with the gameplay, which certainly puts this on my radar
Looks interesting. I'm getting a Jupiter Hell vibe from it and that's not a bad vibe to have.
the splat cat delivers the goods again. Love this game. First quasi boss shot his gun at me and i yelped
Ya, you're back in my RUclips feed!
Thanks for the video.
Looks like great fun
Honestly if this had a barotrauma style co-op with friendly fire, team healing etc. It would be a game i have dreamed about for at least 10 years. But even without co-op it looks really interested. Added it to my wishlist.
The way you described the Quasimorph is basically a synopsis of Ghostbusters II - and I love it haha
...or the warp. Wait, maybe Ghostbusters and Warhammer 40k are in the same universe.
@@One_Eyed_Man_Egon is the Emperor before he revealed himself lmao
I've played the demo / prologue and it was absolutely awesome. I'm not a big fan of roguelike but this one is great!
That's it! I'm pulling the trigger. This one will be mine
That soundtrack is baller
This looked dope the last time he showcased it, and I’ve got a taste for space games thanks to Starfield, so can’t wait
This looks like it would scratch the old Amiga Tower Assault itch. Same visual style, similar but more advanced inventory system and equally as deadly.
I don't usually like roguelites, but this one is looking fire.
Yeay!!! 7 more days till release
Hooray! Another game for the radar! I love that Splat had just talked about loving games with the AA-12 the other day only to reference it here absolutely housing him in an earlier run lol.
Now I want to play it
This looks amazing. It looks like STONESHARD but on Space and with guns.
Lotta gunz, lotta dacca so you KNOW Splatty gunna like it! Mentioned Stoneshard, been waitting for that to get further along, I NEEDZ MOAR majics updates. As for the Quasimorph demo, well I think they need to maybe lighten it up alittle, the injuries/infections are just too much, just too brutal.
I still have access to the 0.1.7 version in my Steam library lol This game has come far!
I've learned to just click the thumb's up before the vid starts. Thanks Splat.
In someways it reminds me of the old classic Alien breed but if it was turn based
I always have to look up the differences between a rogue game, rogue LITE game and a rogue LIKE game.
I really hope this comes to Mac, this is everything I want to spend my time doing
I've played 50+ hrs on their prologue, lol! Excited for the release. I like how the old map looks ( simple looking ) not too much on the new thou as long as the game is fun, I probably can just ignore ☺
I feel like the rng based combat might not work well with an extraction shooter game. No matter how well you play, the rng can screw you over and end up getting you killed, losing all your loot.
Looks almost exactly like Jupiter Hell. Sounds good to me.
I played the hell out of the demo. I like the game a lot.
I like this game, it’s different enough from stone shard so it doesn’t feel like I’m retreading the same paths
Stoneshard with guns? Sweet sign me up!
I'm loving the game, i downloaded Quasimorph demo then was a Quasimorph Ends of Dreams (is not avalable in steam now) and now is a Quasimorph again?
Looks pretty interesting.
I gotta say though. I hope that 3D planet and ship either a) has some sort of mechanic behind it, or, b) is just a place holder.
As is it stands out like a sore thumb among all the sprite and pixel graphics. A nice splash image of the ship and interchangeable planets done up in a pixel graphic art style would fit so much better.
If they're planning to do something with all of that then ignore me. But as is, a more uniform aesthetic would be so much nicer.
I love this game
This reminds me mostly of a futuristic roguelike version of Stone Shard
Survival mechanics are fine, for the most part. You can craft canned food by combining empty cans with raw food on crafting benches, which is better than eating raw food outright.
The while premise of the game sounds like you are skulking around the underbelly of some hive city in WH40k as a Adeptus Arbites.
There is nothing wrong with occasional corporate espionage :)
Ahh I understand, blood for the blood god
It reminds me of Sword of the Stars: The Pit. Rogue like, a bit of crafting, food management, etc.
Pit is a great game, especially if you play it with The Fan Mod.
@@ryanb7186 I'm not familiar with that mod. What does it do?
It's really interesting. It reminds me of Diablo 1. This is how that game originally was designed, as a short (single click) turn based rpg. It looks kind of like a game boy game, quite graphic though.
3:42 So the quasimorph is basically the "warp" in warhammer 40k? Lol
🖤
3:22 so quasimorphi are basically Khorne, but without the copyright?
So the quasimorphosis is just the warp from 40k
More!
cool
Just realized you sound IDENTICAL to younger ZackScottGames
Reminds me of DoomRL
This is one of several games I've seen that makes me think, "This shouldn't be a rogue-lite". When you're collecting lots of equipment and items, levelling up skills like Bodybuilding and exploring a large map through slow-paced turn-based combat, you don't want to lose your character and have to do it all again. Games where you're expected to die and start over a lot should have fast and simple action. I'd be more inclined to buy this if it was a normal RPG.
ADHD ridden zoomer take
Are you familiar with what original rogue likes were? That’s what they were / are
The skill ups seem to be by class. So those are the permanent upgrades. They also added the easy outs for unlocks! I don't know of a game that does that without large penalties. That it it's marked against you for leaving. Now if you could go back and dump stuff in the ship to 'save' some gear. At the cost of increasing the mcguffin effect.
It's a roguelike Not a roguelite
@@brecht9322 Yes, I know what Rogue was like (no pun intended) and I really don't think I could enjoy it. I do enjoy many of the new rogue-lites such as Vampire Survivors and all its clones, so I think that kind of game is better for the format.
I tried the demo, and it has potential, but I think I much prefer Zero Sievert. RNG is so swingy in this game, and dying basically means you have to restart. I was really psyched for it, but I don't think this one is for me.
I think that's fair. There is a tremendous amount of risk management involved that I think some people who aren't into that sorta thing find distasteful!
Is here...in early access.
Hey splat, by chance have you ran this on steam deck?
The only thing that stopped me from really vibing with the game was the pretty static sprites, especially with the main character. Now the game is perfect. Wishlisted!
played the demo and thought it was pretty cool, but I find the infection mechanic too much at times. But otherwise I'll keep an eye on it, really liking most of what I'm seeing
Mechanically, is floating a reasonably high quasimorphosis level actually a bad thing?
I wasn't able to tell how the demon stats compared to the humans they were replacing; but 100% of the basic demon pops seemed to be aztec-themed melee guys rather than a mixture of humans with improvised weapons and humans with guns.
Are the demons tougher or otherwise undesireable in some way; or is that process actually taking some gunmen off the field and replacing them with creepy-but-melee guys?
The enemies only convert on death, so you have the same gun-wielding enemies, but when they die they turn into quasimorphs.
I defo think the quasi mechanic is a balancing act depending on your comfort each run.
Like you said, it can actually be beneficial to float an amount of quasi for a while in order to get some specific resources.
Add to that the items that allow you to lower the value, you get to, to a certain degree, extend your run as you see fit.
I see it as just another risk/reward layer on top of the many others in the game.
This game looks fun, difficulty seems appropriate.
I still have an older version downloaded I think
Is this... Stoneshard but sci-fi?
It's not for me ,I'm still waiting for octomber
Looks like Stoneshard in space. Which I mean as a compliment.
I'm sad for Stoneshard. The devs are Russian, so despite continuing to work on the game, because of the international sanctions, they aren't making any money from the game. Their sales have been withheld with every other Russian developer's payment processors and storefronts. People still expecting it to be finished on time despite the having mouths to feed and bills to pay is just beyond me.
@@amergingilesthey got my money a while ago, I ain’t mad about the delay but it is what it is
So it's a kinda turned based escape from tarkov?
Stoneshard with guns?
So, wait, is this the same as Quasimorphosis or are they two different games?
it's the same game, name was changed
my steam demo is very different from yours, splattercat.. its like a combination of the older demo and end of dreams. anybody know anything about this? the game is joyfully brutal otherwise
comment for the comment god!
Looks cool but the enemies move brutally slow.
reminds me old rouge like - Sword of the Stars: The Pit
Hit in the knee… guess you’re no longer an adventurer
Splat just not looting the three bodies stack with the second demon because he doesn't notice the tabs to switch is driving me wild*.
*Unless I'm mistaken about what the tabs mean, lol.
The last tab is usually floor (if there is stuff on the floor) but yeah, the others are the other bodies. 😂
But its not finally here fo us yet :(
> "I'm not a big shotgun guy in video games."
You are now dead to me. But like an active dead, perhaps some sort of undead who still plays video games I watch and listen to.
As a caveat if all the shotguns in games generally felt like the Doom 2 shotgun, or like the L4D shotgun I'd like them a lot more.
Metal Gear Solid prose?
Better than Starfield lmao. Looks dope!
I get the feeling that this is the kind of game that would drag on a bit, the movement is slow, you can't carry a lot, the maps are kind of big. It just feels like a lot of things put in place to make the experience take a long time, maybe past the point where it is fun since you need to wait until the end of the mission to get rewards (evac). I feel like the missions should be shorter - less navigable areas, even if they end up slightly denser with enemies. Also, I don't understand what the point is of having that quasimorph mechanic. It seems like it goes up 1 pt no matter what you do, so it doesn't add anything to the game play other than having a timer for a bad guy showing up. I think I was expecting there to be some sort of strategy here on how you complete the mission in order to manage this meter, but it appears there isn't really and I guess it doesn't matter anyway. At least Splat never seemed to care about it when playing. I mean, conceptually I think the game is solid on a lot of levels - I just think the balance and QoL is not there right now. It frankly seems like the annoyance of inventory management and hunting through huge maps would outweigh any fun I would have with this title, at least in it's current state.
I mean this with all due respect but it seems like this might not be the kind of game for you.
I think this will defo be a game that rubs some people the wrong way, but it's intended audience are salivating for games of this nature!
