Doesn't have the new stuff off git but GH1's in the middle of an art revamp there and would probably be a mess. Extract the gh1-sdlwin.zip, then extract the sdlimage.zip on top of it. then run arena.exe to play.

thank you.

deathstate describes itself as a single stick shooter. what does that mean? you move and bullets auto aim when you push a fire button?

i was wondering this to and the preview video didn't help me figure it out.

I played like 10 games of deathstate last night and it's really fun but boy am I bad at dodging. pumpkin man is cool though because the default chance of fearing an enemy helps me out a lot.

woop woop got my first kill on what is, as I suspected, not actually the final boss of Deathstate, but actually the Mom of Deathstate.

oh well I killed it! blue demon carry me to victory

I just played a bunch more and while I didn't get that far, I did beat the first zone's boss a couple times and broke some shrines to summon a cthulhu and kicked it's butt. I'm really bad at dodging and also dodge into stuff all the time. Still trying to figure out where exactly the hitbox is because sometimes I get hit when it doesn't look like I should.

get dungeonmans if you want one with good humor and persistent growth.

get caves of qud if you want more traditional gameplay, with really nice ascii (i usually hate ascii), and tons of character customization.

get sproggiwood if you want one with cute graphics that's a little more puzzle-y. but don't let those cute graphics fool you...

anyone here been playing siralim 2? i'm 20-something floors in but ugh.. i feel weak but i can survive well.

currently using a stronghold as a tank which auto provokes after each of it's turn so it gets targetted. along with that i have a valkyrie soldier that has a 30% chance to counter when an ally is attacked. i have a unicorn for the chance to revive on attack and minor healing, some ent for passive mend on the party for survivability, a dragon who's passive reduces the enemy's attack, and some swamp thing which i mostly use for aoe bleed + def/spd buff+debuff.

there's seemingly no easy way to restore mp in battles, though stats refill after each. but my monsters can only cast 1-2 spells a battle aside from some minor heal which is based on hp and a str buff i got that also uses hp instead of mp.

What mage are you playing? As that can factor into everything!
Also what castle stuff do you have unlocked and which realms? For getting better Spell Gems there is a food that increases the chance of finding them, also the magical realm has more spell gems. (At the very least it has a shattered one where you grab all 5 pieces).

E i type good

i picked life mage. castle upgrades i have are the chef, first merchant, blacksmith and the two artifact npcs.

i don't think i have realms unlocked yet, i just got the 5th nether orb. i'll have to look up the food recipe for spells and beeline for that.

thanks this is all pretty helpful. that's basically how i focused the Valkyrie, spell gems with on hit procs (just the partywide Shell and an AOE dmg + scorn)

i've got a bunch of the deity points unspent because i wanted to decide which of the bigger ones to go after.

i'll see if i can get the overheal perk, that looked like one of the better ones and i was saving points until i could afford one of the big ones. with the passive mend i'm basically overhealing a couple characters every turn.

defense hasn't been a problem for me but offense has basically been me buffing my valkyrie with my ent every turn or other turn with this:

tangledeep is looking rad dude. keep it up!

in general, i love how involved and helpful all you roguelike devs are. it's neat seeing a community of devs bouncing ideas off each other and sharing thought processes about different aspects of the game design.

deathstate is great and goon made. its a single stick shooter where you automatically fire on the closest enemy and can focus more on dodging around. and it's got itemization in the same vein as boi more or less. plus a couple different characters that play a little differently.

does streets of rogue have like, an endgame goal? are you progressing through the world in some way?

e: i guess what im really asking is can you beat it or is it just a sandbox?

one more thing i didn't see mentioned is that each character has an optional quest line with objectives to do on their run.
