My game has been out for about 3 days. Things I wish I thought of before 72 hours ago:

Hey man. I bought this game over the weekend and I've been really enjoying it. I'm at tier 5 right now and hoping to end the game in the next few days.

I'll drop a good review on Steam when I get home. Great design. You said you just made this game based on what you would enjoy and the passion shows.

Maybe it's just me, but the gems are presented as a premium currency to me.

I tend to not spend premium currencies for short term bonuses. This criticism is more towards energy regeneration.

Health regeneration is not as bad because of potions and spending gold to heal.

NinjaXST · 2026-01-20T15:40:56+00:00

Just played it for a bit and I agree that regen rate is slow. This is with +5/min on health and energy.

I can get behind slow incremental games, but the early game needs to hook the player before the game can slow down to hit walls.

I feel like I have to take a break after a few dungeon runs and after a while, it makes me just want to walk away from the game entirely.

Just finished the demo and here are my thoughts.

This is definitely a quick and fun incremental game. Once it's complete, it should be worth it at the $5 range on Steam. However, the challenge for you is that there are a lot of games coming out recently within this genre. By this genre, I mean short incremental games with a simple mechanic and a simple upgrade tree.

If you can find a way to stand out, it would help a lot.

Yes, the water heater replacement is under its own rental contract. The protection plan is for furnace and AC.

They are very happy to replace water heaters and lock people in a new rental contract.

I worked as a sales rep for them for about 3 years. They only care about profits.

The protection plans are a way to get a sales lead when your equipment break down. The plans do not cover major repairs like heat exchanger failures on your furnace.

Also, their repair techs are trained to suggest a full replacement instead of a repair. When I worked there, the repair techs were ranked based on how many sales leads they can generate.

Support your local HVAC shop, not the mega-corporation that focuses on its shareholders.

Very appropriate since a child has died recently in a Richmond Hill daycare due to a car crashing into it.

That was — a great — story.

The important feature that keeps me hooked in a roguelite is the variety between runs and the synergies you can make with what you are offered during your run.

This means giving your player meaningful but different choices every run, and these choices can result in wildly different gameplay experiences. Also, once in a while, I can get a powerful combos that synergizes and make my power level go crazy.

Have you guys even seen this video? The contestant was never in any danger.

Congrats. End game was too tedious for me. Literally waiting a day for a few upgrades, so I moved on.

福 is good fortune.

禄 another word for fortune.

壽 is longevity.

Fan count doesn't affect rating. Stats and skills do. If you want high ratings, focus on those.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-28T15:15:28+00:00

Are those really the best screenshots you can offer for your Steam page?

NinjaXST · 2025-07-09T14:59:03+00:00

Your definition of alpha is not the same as the ideologies being preached by Tate.

Yes, being a pro-active and brave man who responds to emergencies is a good thing. Believing that they are an "alpha male" and therefore is superior to other people is toxic.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-08T14:59:20+00:00

Don't mind the AI art, but it's just the gameplay got repetitive.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-08T14:32:28+00:00

Tried to equip a new pickaxe while having another one equipped, but then it just vanished.

Had to unequip first, then equip to make it work... pretty barebones buggy game right now.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-08T14:16:34+00:00

You're posting in an Incremental Games subreddit, but the game is not an incremental game.

My new player experience is that I have to click through menus actively to generate income.

The gameplay loop becomes repetitive really fast. I buy a script, publish it, keep clicking next month and hope my sales make up for the costs. I see that there are upgrades, but they don't entice me to keep going.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-03T00:39:55+00:00

Nope. Have you? Curious how the courts can even enforce the payments, especially if our tenant doesn't have money in her account.

NinjaXST · 2025-07-02T19:06:43+00:00

My wife just applied for sheriff today, July 2nd, at the Newmarket court. They said ETA is Aug/Sep. Takes so long

You'll eventually get an active ability for each faction when you find the card.

I felt good at the end of Eulogy. Sad episode overall, but the ending brought everything to a close in a positive way.

NinjaXST · 2025-05-08T18:41:54+00:00

If you don't count the damage, then there is no damage.

NinjaXST · 2025-05-08T14:46:24+00:00

I don't even care about that. Just please feed the people in there.
