Magnets in this game are one of the best (and broken) things. Will you die from nothing going in? Will you die from laughter? Or will you win by oneshotting the enemies with 30 things picked out at once? Who knows
to many mags are a thing. ive had many a pull where nothing went in cuz i had the entire collection and couldnt make it over the wall. once time i had a stack so damn high i was just using the claw to hit it over the wall, free items...kinda.
Scrappy is definitely the most powerful character in the demo, he's a little weak to high damage attacks in the early game but if you get enough war hammers or metal shields the game basically plays itself. Even without all you need is a lot of metal items and you can just kill everything before they can hit you. The vampire and the business man are also pretty good but you have to put a lot more effort into playing into their strengths.
@@InternetGravedigger had some scaling with gold on the vampire. On floor 25 I sold everything but a single Gold dagger. Had roughly 5k gold. The dagger shot 3 times at the beginning of every turn, practically one shotting any fight.
Matt after 17 times of choosing to pick things up on the left side of his magnet and them falling out of the machine: "What?! The Magnet dropped everything!? Stupid magnet!" Makes me think of a Spongebob meme.
Rather than sword (or most other large items) make sure you have Hand of Midas and a few Gold Daggers... absurd damage! Even better, remove all the wood shields too... not like anything survives long enough to hit you...
@@InternetGravedigger You know what item pairs quite well with a coin build? The credit card! Once you got a few of them, and are collecting enough coins to pay for the card, they get crazy strong after a few fights!!
@@lajawi. Unless they changed something, credit card can still ramp even if you have no money... it just puts you in debt. But gold daggers are at least magnetic.
You can get something going really good with magnets, but you need to definitely draw a limit. If you have too many Magnet +'s in your deck, you'll quite literally maim yourself with stuff not falling down the chute because they're stuck to the magnet + that's being attracted to 3 other magnet +'s on the other side of the chute and no claw is strong enough to pull any of those other 3 magnet +'s out of the way. Picky is okay, but it's best if you also match it with Magic Mirror. Magic Mirror doubles the first item used in a turn, so if you had the gold body armor and only picked up that, it'd be applied 3 times, meaning you'd get 15 block the next turn. Have 2 of them and only pick up those, you got 25 block by turn 2. Doesn't help you on turn 1, but you can see the real magic behind that synergy. Pincushion is best matched with Hoarder, Junkjets, and Vampire Fangs. All of those can be stacked, meaning you can get them multiple times to amplify their effects, and it basically becomes a time bomb for the enemy. They deal damage to you, something will be put into the machine and Junkjets will damage them for every new item put in the machine (sans the initial machine loading at the beginning of the round.) Vampire Fangs will heal you for every time you deal damage, so on par with Junkjets, and then after the enemy's turn is up, Hoarder just ruin's their day. Hoarder allows you to have up to 10 more items in your machine for each Hoarder perk you have. So I had one time where I had 3 Hoarders, 4 Junkjets, 4 Vampire Fangs, and 2 Pincushions and it became less of a claw machine gimmicked dungeon turn based game and more of a challenge for the enemy to get to attack a third time. 30 items dumped in and 120 damage spread to enemies in increments of 4 while I healed 4 back 30 times. It's a brutal combo once you set it up. After that, you really only need to worry about blocking to survive until the machine restocks.
I beat a run of the demo using the vampire, went really well, with the perk which makes each item added damage all enemies by 1, magnets and shrink rays so you can grab more at once, you can do a lot of damage while healing as well. Makes the knives you start off with really useful since you regain 10% damage dealt with a minimum of 1, so lots of small damage is better.
@lamps4044 to be fair, I wanted to see how far I could get with the money build... I'm at floor 25 and have most of the perks unlocked. Its not even a challenge if you get the right equipment. The only thing you have to fear is the boss mothaniel.
This video was a little bit over edited in my opinion. Part of the game is watching all the items doing the damage, and that was skipped over almost every time. I’m usually a big fan of your editors, but this one was a miss for me.
While I honestly think I would prefer watching the video with less pointless cuts, I also understand that they are probably doing it because the RUclips algorithm does not like long videos, so they try to make it shorter without sacrificing content.
@@nickythehickey Oh, I thought it would favor videos with around 10 minutes, in this case I have no idea why they would choose to cut those parts out of the video
@@thef0li27 it's a funny thing, last time I checked youtube pays for watch time, so the algorithm does favor short videos (so they pay less) but if you make a longer video that people do watch, you get way more money. There's a certain irish man I follow that only uploads 1h+ videos and as far as I'm aware that's all his income
There was a perk in the first video that allowed you to keep any unused block, instead of losing it at the end of each turn. Couple that with a few stacks of the body armor and you should eventually generate block faster than you use it. Then couple it with the helmet that doubles the amount of block you have and it should go through the roof!
I really like watching this game, but basically the entire game was edited out of this video. Kinda felt like this in the last one too. You dont get to see any of the combat or anything because it gets cropped out every time or just skipped.
“Oh no, explodes at the start of enemies turn and deals 50 damage to the player, is that 50 damage to me, or to itself?” Matt is a special kind of special
Before you drop the magnet give it a wiggle so it swings and grabs more. Drop it a bit left of big clumps, so they're on the right side of the magnet and fall into the hole instead of getting rejected.
I remember when I didn’t want to watch the dungeon crawler videos because I didn’t think I would like it… weelllllll second video in a row, let’s goo!!!
Managed to make a broken combo with Scrappy: - 1 Magnet+, not more to prevent Magnet shenanigans - 2 Hand of Midas+, so all fluff should get turned to 'gold' - 5 Golden Dagger+, as our source of damage - 11 Brass Knuckles+ as Evasion is infinitely scaling defense and that basically means 'dodge 22 attacks'.
I am loving your random indie like games your finding the last few months lol. I’d enjoy this one more if they added sound effects sooner than later lol
Matt, the sword will nearly always fall back into the item pool rather than the shoot if it is attached to the left side of the magnet. If possible, I'd recommend trying to catch it more in the right side (i see the pools haven't exactly made that too viable tho so do whatcha do)
The big shield doubles its shielding if picked up alone. Picking up the big shield and a little shield at once is actually worse than picking up the big shield by itself.
You should make your profile picture the beaver in high vis and hardhat from Preserve. Or even the same art style you have now but beaver. I can't imagine you not being a PE certified beaver (might be a CE in the UK - Professional Engineer in the US)
the real probleme with magnets is that at a certain point when you have to much of them there is just too much item trying to fall and none do they all finish up stuck
Does the fluff really get in the way? It looks like it stops things from falling out of the claw as it grabs and lifts, especially if there is a piece in the claw.
hand of midus continues to transform any fluff which comes near it, removing it removes it for that battle so obviously try not to. Instead use the magnet far enough to either side to grab the coins. There is a max number of items at once in the container and I think both fluff and coins count to that number.
Lol you definitely broke the game! Your first video of Dungeon Clawler got me to download the demo and I'll be buying it when it comes out. In other game news, Timberborn's new update is out on the experimental branch, 😁
The reason you lose 50 on the roulette table is because you’re not playing against anyone it’s a dusty old roulette table and you jest put 50 on it. there was nobody to give you more coins wen you win or lose and you jest walk away leaving your coins on the table lol that’s a good trap
The editor is making this difficult to watch. When you pickup armor, the screen shouldn't zoom on the enemy. When you pickup a healing item, the screen shouldn't linger on the now empty claw. Editor please show the relevant part of the screen if you are going to force zoom all the time. This video would honestly be 2x as good with 0 edits and just raw footage.

Dex comment helping in his usual games? Based
The hilarity of the physics jank causing items to fly into the collection area by themselves will never fail to make me lose my shit.
to many mags are a thing. ive had many a pull where nothing went in cuz i had the entire collection and couldnt make it over the wall. once time i had a stack so damn high i was just using the claw to hit it over the wall, free items...kinda.
Midas, whetstone, magnet. Avoid big metal stuff like swords, helmets, and chestplate so it doesn't get clogged.
Fluffy perk. HP for gold. Gold dagger.
Under the right circumstances, the magent will fly and pull thigns into the exit tube, allowing for ZERO GRAB WINS.

Even without all you need is a lot of metal items and you can just kill everything before they can hit you.
The vampire and the business man are also pretty good but you have to put a lot more effort into playing into their strengths.
In later game with Hand of Midas+ you can remove most of the large items and go with Gold Daggers+...

it was the item magnet, not the magnet claw
Quick backstory of this game
The character we play as, Sir Bunalot, gambled away his coins and his hand, which is why he has a claw on on one arm.
Well I guess the house really wanted a lucky rabbit's foot...
@@InternetGravedigger quite literally the lore
Magnet, hand of midas, gold, metal items, golden armor and sword. Crush your enemies
Rather than sword (or most other large items) make sure you have Hand of Midas and a few Gold Daggers... absurd damage! Even better, remove all the wood shields too... not like anything survives long enough to hit you...
@@InternetGravedigger You know what item pairs quite well with a coin build? The credit card! Once you got a few of them, and are collecting enough coins to pay for the card, they get crazy strong after a few fights!!
Golden Daggers are WAY better with the gold build. They scale so hard late game.

Biggest mistake in the video is missing the golden armor. I got 5 stacks of that in one of my runs, and then got 1 hp for every coin I had
Getting 5 stacks of gold armor is pretty lucky, but for only beating the first 6 floors not saving the money is more fun than hoarding it all

Fun Fact: Eugène Hénard (the man who invented the roundabout) was an architect. Something doesn't add up.
I mean that is an architects job, design things that are less functional and look better

Really liked the longer video. Also, always nice to finish the day to one your vids Matt. Cheers
Matt: oh no im down to 70 health! Not ideal. I need the healing wand
Me: im on 15 health. Eh its fine

Saw your last vid and had to try it. SUPER addictive. Try a high damage hoarder vampire next! No shields, all attack.
When ya do that set up, use the claw magnet to the left of what you want to pick up instead of straight down. More chance of it going in the hole

Any plans on releasing the unedited versions of these videos, maybe on a secondary channel? The heavy editing is difficult to follow.
This game is so addictive that I'm even addicted to watching gameplay of it 😂
Day 1 of telling Matt to take a vacation cuz he deserves it.
12:28 Lmao I love that enemy design
what i did when i had the magnet claw is removed shields and added daggers (I also ended up with a ton of golden daggers)
If you only pick up the big sword or big shield it gives u double i stead of normal
Body armor is so good, you can basically become invincible if you get enough with how much defense you're gaining each turn.
This video was extremely interesting to watch! I hope you'll continue to play this game as soon as it comes out please?
the sword and shield holding hands enemy is so cute 😭
What is this man stalking me after watching like 20 of this man's videos whilst playing this game he's now playing it😮
11:45 matt's engineer brain is not working as always while plsying this game
I was hoping for more of this!
The big shield doubles its shielding if picked up alone. Picking up the big shield and a little shield at once is actually worse than picking up the big shield by itself.
Just watched the first part and was instantly blessed with the second
You should go to settings and make the game speed faster it gets more fun with the crazy physics
30 seconds in and I just listened to the britishiest of accents when RCE says “Bolt in the bottom corner”
i love how it says the shields are made of wood as its lined with metal...
It's funny how on pgone when you have youtube in widescreen mode the video's name gets cut and it just says "Exploiting magnets made me FILTHY..."
Ah the heat gun is so good. If you use it, it shrinks items left in the machine, allowing u to pick up more!
but its harder to pick up them toi
That was fun! Good video.
"Deals 50 damage to the player."
"Is that to me, or the enemy"
Well, Matt, tell me.... which one is the player controlling...
Im 12 and you unironically make me want to pursue an engineering career 🔥🔥🔥
Wow the magnets are OVER POWERED 😁
Hey matt l love your videos they always brighten my day keep up the good work! 👷👍
the magnet play is soo satisfying i hope they dont nerf it
This game is strangely addictive to watch.
You should make your profile picture the beaver in high vis and hardhat from Preserve. Or even the same art style you have now but beaver.
I can't imagine you not being a PE certified beaver (might be a CE in the UK - Professional Engineer in the US)
Would be interesting to watch him play Banished since he enjoys playing timberborn

RCE 2024: Well that's a kick in the nuts.
Spoilers: Matt beats the demo and leaves it there
1. Its like slay the spire
2. Would it work to pick up hand with magnet and then drag it it across the screen to it touches all the floof?
when u drop claw or magnet u cant move it left and right
Has matt ever played stormworks? If not i would love to see him try!
Bring back the Hydronear DLC
This is basically Slay the Spire but with less strategy.
And I love this would be fun if you did more of it😊
This is a fun game been playing for a while now!

There is a max number of items at once in the container and I think both fluff and coins count to that number.
That magic wand looks familiar.
I swear... Matt the only person i know who has a build that stacks armor like mad and takes the item that removes all block cuz its rare...
Oeh😮 THE CLAAAAW😮
You should do a gold sword based build next time
magnets in this game are really cool, but they need to be made more rare. They should also cost a TON to upgrade.
I feel dungeon clawlers in my head
The metal on those shields must be aluminium!
well that or the wood weighs more then the magnetic potential.
Strange how it also picks up gold... they must just be gold plated.
3:51 " AWHHH NOYYY"
Matt,not related to the video but,how do you find all of these games?Thay are so good!Please let us know
take the big shield or small sword alone it will be twice effective.
Dammit Matt. Because of you, I have played 6.9 hours (Noice) of this game. Lol
Day 2 of not asking Matt to play the games he doesn't want to play
Was it just me, or did anyone else notice that he said “welcome to” and not “welcome back to”?
How dare you recommend Paddy's channel but not have new content for me!
If "Picky" only works per turn rather than per grab then it wouldn't be that great.
the hand of Midas (as well as some others with the bubble mark at the bottom) only come once a fight.
including the whetstone
and helmet
and holy shield
Wow. Thanks for introducing this game to me. It's a cracker!!
Day 1 of asking Matt to Play Minecraft with immersive engineering
why is this game soooo much fun to watch?
where did you downlaod this game ? cant find it anywhere
Steam
Wow, he didn't take the creditcard. On floor 1. With a coin build.
Wait until he discovers the beaver character…
I am also playing a game of growing numbers, its called my youtube channel :-) but that one is much harder!
I would love to see you play super life rpg
Day 220 asking Matt to play Fortnite for building and reviewing BRIDGES
btw you don't want any items with your sword because if sword drops in alone you get 2x damage on the sword if you were to actually read it 💀
Lol you definitely broke the game! Your first video of Dungeon Clawler got me to download the demo and I'll be buying it when it comes out. In other game news, Timberborn's new update is out on the experimental branch, 😁
As an architect, if RCE grabbed my toe I would most certainly bite.
The credit cards great. You can go into debt with it and keep increasing the damage each time you use it
The reason you lose 50 on the roulette table is because you’re not playing against anyone it’s a dusty old roulette table and you jest put 50 on it. there was nobody to give you more coins wen you win or lose and you jest walk away leaving your coins on the table lol that’s a good trap
Could you play screwdrivers
Wait until RCE sees Benny...
Magnets in general are stupidly broken in this game, it is good fun though!
Matt, you can click again to grab early.
I think you might be over feeding your editors. The last floor had more cuts than an action movie

Gold shouldn't be that magnetic, but since when have Real Civil Engineers cared about laws of physics.
