Okay, that makes sense. Wish I saw that, sometimes I dunno when people are live, there doesn't seem to be any schedule

There is a schedule on the left side here on Twitch: this_is_a_link_I_don't_want_auto_embedding_dammit
There is an embedded video at the very top of the front page here at the Temp whenever someone's live. And if you follow the channel, you'll get an email every time they go live (and if you have the app, you may get a notification there as well).

There are many options Eventually we'll get ourselves an even better schedule, I hope

 

[Kioku]

Cool! I'll look into it when my backlog is clear.

 

[redmagejosh]

i guess the game is a mastercreation

Yeah, looks great... To me it is just a matter of principle... or something.

Don't get me wrong, I'll definitely buy it once it is ready. It looks this good and it is in early access! The final product is going to be amazing I bet.

Better schedule I hope. I know about the options, I just sometimes can't really know when to be expecting live broadcast, especially when some are very early in the morning when I'm sleep. How come there doesn't seem to be more people involved either? There seem like about less than 10.

This is far and away one of the best early access games I've played. The devs also appear to be adding tons of content with every update. I can't wait to see the game when it's finished, and I'll gladly get it on Switch at that time. My only concern would be that there's not much of a dpad to be had on the switch so it could be awkward, but the directional buttons aren't that bad.

It's ready. This is one that's been ready from the start of EA and it's just gotten better and better.

YES! i've been trying to get a job so that i can buy a switch, and the great releases just keep coming!

is this the ninty console that DIDN'T go wrong?

AM I weird if I prefer the buttons over the traditional dpad? I see nothing wrong with them, and they're actually rather comfortable.

hahaha yes, i know, im just joking. but when you take into account that the last home console from nintendo that wasnt a failure is already 12 years old...

(also, can we really consider the wii a success?)

It's by far the best roguelike to come out in a very long time, possibly ever. Incredibly fun. Love the hell out of that game. Glad to see it going on switch, i'll probably actually buy it again just for the portability.

i am just sayin that this is a great game ...even in earlyaccessphase

 

[Pluupy]

Damn the graphics are good but I have zero care for these simple types of games because of how mindless they are.

Eh... I love it, but it doesn't beat out FTL. That game holds the title of 'best roguelike' for me.

Imagine FTL on the Switch .

 

[Bubsy Bobcat]

Literally never heard of this game but damn what a generic sounding title for a game.

 

[Medveitsi]

Omg! This looks so good. A must buy

This is not a simple game by any stretch. You're probably looking at 20 hours of gameplay minimum. You have to invest cells into different weapon/shield/bow/magic/item blueprints that you find to unlock those items for future runs (random) and also on that run instantly. Just about every run you'll make different stat investments depending on what weapons you have to work with.

The game has environmental hazards, highly varied enemy types, different paths to take to the end, lots of hardcore bosses, doors that can only be unlocked by speed-running, etc.

I've been watching it for a while, I even have it on my wishlist but I refuse to pay to play on early access. I get that feel of paying to be a beta tester. I'll wait for the game to be completed.

oh boy are you missing out.

The game is incredibly polished, the only reason it's in EA is because there's still content to come.

But gameplay-wise, it's finished and very polished.
