Comments for Rogue Fable II

That's a really cool idea. I was thinking about just using a boring old cool down timer but that might be a more thematic way to limit its usage. Thanks for suggestion!

Thanks for the feedback I'll keep it in mind. I essentially have a running tally of how many people consider a certain enemy, class, item etc. OP. I also have my own opinions of course. When there seems to be a general consensus is when I start to consider making major changes. Right now you're the first to mention the ice wolves so consider them on the tally list now :P

Go up and down the stairs, healing on the upstairs and picking them off on the down, one by one. When you go up and down again they forget about you and you get a free attack. This usually gets me out of early game jams before I have AoE abilities or consumables to use.

Yeah that's seriously bad luck. I think for next update what I'll do is same thing I did with food. Keep the random shops in but make a guaranteed one on level 6 or something. Randomness is fun until your that 1/1000 guy that just gets screwed.

I view glyph doors as a heavy risk vs reward thing so I'd like them to remain as potentially deadly as possible. I generally don't open them myself unless I've got more than enough stuff to deal with whatever could be hiding inside. I'll also often skip them past a certain point as its just not worth the risk.

Maybe its just not your kind of game? You've got to slow down a lot more if your not noticing your health dropping.

Sorry about that. Thanks for the detailed bug report though, should help me in my epic confrontation with that merchant.

Hmmm, I'll do some testing with rogue at the high levels, maybe his stealth isn't scaling nicely. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the heads up. Though minor, this actually gives me a bit more ammo for my war with that damn merchant and his insufferable crashes, since obviously its not updating your stats when you sell something.

Thanks you! Music is not mine so all credit goes to Nooskewl games which released all the music into the public domain.

Personally I'm basically just sprinting for the down stairs once I reach those last levels. Unless you've gotten really lucky with drops or have some kind of god build going its unwise to try to actually clear them fully.

Hahaha, seriously that's pretty funny. Especially since that greedy bastard just stands there all the time and watches me nearly die to 10+ monsters then all I get is a 'Welcome to my humble shop good sir!'. Will fix with next update. Thanks for not hoarding this secret trick for yourself :P

Thanks for the heads up. This is on the list. There's a bunch of projectiles that, because of the way they produce fire or shock effects, are not correctly being reflected. Weapon shield and shields of reflection should, when working correctly, reflect all projectiles.

The boarder of the screen does turn red when less then 25% health. Other then that I'd just advise you to slow down a bit with your clicking. If you're clicking so fast you can't pay attention to health then you are probably clicking to fast.

Ranger is coming pretty soon, he's pretty much done but I'm focusing on bugs and balance issues at the moment. Ice mage needs to get in at some point. Lots of people have pointed out that there is in fact an ice book and rings boosting ice attack. After that, possibly more classes as long as they are different enough from the existing ones.

Yeah, this is on the list. Some kind of confirmation when starting a new character when there's a character in the save slot. Thanks for the feedback.

Hopefully they will actually google it if they enjoyed pixel dungeon. There's a whole world of awesome rogue-likes out there waiting to be played.

W (for wield I guess) will swap between the current weapon and the previous weapon.

Still trying to figure this one out. Seems like some small percentage of people have all sorts of problems with either fire or electricity or both. Might end up rewriting the whole system from scratch since I can't replicate either of the bugs on my system with any browser.

Hmmm will look into it. Next time this occurs please PM me with the text from your browsers console window so I can isolate the bug. Right click -> inspect -> console and just copy paste all the mess thats spewing out.

Yeah, this is a weird one which I cannot replicate on my end. There were people experiencing a similar issue (though it crashed) with fire. Will be digging deep into the code and try to figure out whats causing this. Might just need to rewrite the whole effect system from scratch since its tricky to debug a bug that I never see. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the kind words :). I'm taking all your guys feedback into consideration for future upgrades. Definitely still a lot of balance work to do.

Will add this to my list, shouldn't really make much of a difference to game balance since mages can already blast them with their staves. Gives one more advantage to not using an axe as well.

You can save and exit, but as far as save so you can continue when you die, no, game is designed to be permadeath.

Yeah, no permanent benefits, just the skill and knowledge you gain as a player.

Sure thing, its currently bound to space bar but I can do Q as well. W is currently used to swap between current and previous weapons.

Achievements (especially tricky, difficult to pull off ones) are planned for the far future once more pressing stuff is dealt with. Don't think I want to do any sort of in game prize though as I feel like that ruins the challenge somewhat.

I haven't gotten very far in Brogue but I loved all the grasses, gasses, chasms and just general environmental stuff that game had. So many of the major rogue-likes have comparatively bland dungeons.
