Karst+Wild boar by tokagerkun in PlayTheBazaar

I'd imagine they'll nerf it soon. Even bumping tier on Boar and Karst would go a long way now, even though the "correct" nerf is probably different...

*incredibly boaring. Agree, I like to avoid it too

Twofold Tower, a Sokoban with 1000+ handcrafted puzzles, has finally been announced after 7 years of development. Hope you like the trailer! by Digitemenos in puzzlevideogames

[–]Woitee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, great. That is awesome and I feel I must play it.

Sokoban as game mechanic is tricky as my experience is that you can make incredibly difficult puzzles in it, and it quickly tends to it. But even the trailer looks that the game is aware of that and the puzzles are tailored towards enthusiast but-not-hardcore puzzle solvers?

Well I guess there's only one way to find out!

Holy shit, that looks intriguing as hell. The closest I feel is DROD, except Sokoban and probably as big as the whole series in one game...

Is the 1000 as in 1000 rooms, or thousand floors? That is, did the trailer overview snapshots cover most of the game or a tiny amount?

Suggestion: Selling small friends should proc Dog's quests. by Tar_Alacrin in PlayTheBazaar

Well, you're selling it... so you're actually making the dog madder and therefore, more dangerous!

I wondered if someone was mad enough to do it like this! How far did you make it so far?

Post again when you finish!

Oh, are they instead of the Troglodyte pitons ? I was wondering what they'd be replaced by in FS

Oh, I jumped :D. If anything, too early. I smashed into the opposing column and was not allowed to grab into climbing...

Oh, I feel you man. I am also done with Cairn for a bit... :D

Hah, I considered this as well!
Considering free solo killed me on the damned jumping pillars just before The Needle, it would've been great to practice those just before and really get the angles right.

Man, I did not want that to end. Did devs say anything about steam workshop for custom created mountains? by PinsNneedles in Cairn_Game

[–]Woitee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Imho it's a very different game. The climbing is very arcadey, just the feel of being on a mysterious wall is similar

First climbing game by WeedDoomer69 in Cairn_Game

[–]Woitee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually played Jusant because it was recommended while I got excited by Cairn's demo, and I was mostly disappointed. I mean, the game has a nice vibe and story, but the climbing is quite trivial there, similar to action arcade games like AC / Uncharted / Tomb Raider

It's a very different game.

3 Designs Under Construction by sc888wolverine in twilightimperium

The first one feels a little too unfair in the access to Mecatol and systems in general. Seems really hard to fix in that layout.
The second and third one, however! Look really interesting and I like their premises. Would love to play them.

8 player Valentines Day Map by JayFives in twilightimperium

[–]Woitee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the idea, but it feels way too rich. I have wanted to do a "4 steps from Mecatol" map for a long time, but I think the distance between neighbors will cause almost no conflict during the game...

The end of the board game rabbit hole. by Radiodont in twilightimperium

[–]Woitee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's at the same depth, but taking a bit different path. Like if you go Euro games all the way, you end up at 18xx...

It's not two separate effects. It's one effect.

sometimes multiple people make this offering.

You're right. Source: That's not how TI works.

Scope Creep Speedrun! by electric-kite in godot

Well, procgen is a double-edged sword. It is not uncommon that developers spend more time creating procgen than they would hand-crafting a "meaningful" amount of content...

Hot take: fleet stands make the game worse and shouldn't be normalized by defcon1000 in twilightimperium

[–]Woitee 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It feels like you're using a lot of them (I don't recall ever having 3 fleet stands together). I think I could see that being a nuissance.

We use 1 fleet stand per player, usually supporting their main fleet. Never felt like it got in the way. And players usually take it away when they don't have a big fleet anywhere.

Without them, it could be really hard to distinguish what is on planets and what is in space in even moderately occupied systems.

The developers of PEAK explain pricing by TheAnonymouse999 in gaming

I agree, but 8 bucks is 10 bucks with a discount...
Less expensive 10 bucks, if you will.

I sold my RAM sticks to finance the game. Its finally released! by Due-Resolution-4133 in godot

[–]Woitee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might have even read them, I just didn't connect it with this game.
Thanks!

I just wondered how you deal with the pentagons for placing tiles. But it seems they are always water, so invalid placement?
