Hope you enjoyed the video! Slightly worse audio and video quality than normal due to recording in a different space and using my old laptop. I'm playing through Gordian Quest right now (which is fun!) and hoping to have a review on out that as my next video.

Dev of We Who Are About To Die here! thank you so much for the coverage, its crazy to see :) Controller support is coming by the way! And I will simplify the blocking system, I got a ton of amazing feedback from the next fest which I plan to apply. Hope you give it another shot after I got some time to refine. Cheers!

Oh cool! Glad to see you get a lot of helpful feedback and being willing to incorporate it. I definitely would try it again with a simpler block system and controller support. The attacking system felt fine even with the complexities, but the blocking just too clunky for me. The gameplay is definitely unique, so hope everything comes together for y'all!

@@InsertReviews TY! Yeah, the blocking is a super old version that I didnt really touch anymore, its super clunky atm and it needs a total redo, I thought most people would rely on shields or not try to really block (vs using distance) but I was wrong. I always though the game would play super well on controller, with analog stick control for attack directions, a bit like Fight Night if you ever played that. Next fest changed everything for me! Never been more motivated. Its just me developing by the way :)

Thanks for playing Isle of Arrows! I’m balancing the frequency of flags/towers/etc. at the moment, as the RNG/variance can easily lead to frustration like you mentioned. Also adding various UX improvements such as keybindings, more clarity on tile placement rules, better tutorial, etc. Appreciate your feedback!

Yes, dome keeper has a win condition, to find the artifact which kills all enemies. Once it's found and brought to the dome, the demo ends. It encourages you to try different builds, do you make your drill powerful immediately and dig quickly to find it? Or buff your dome to grant you time to eventually find it.
@InsertReviews

Oh cool, I didn't know that! That makes me more excited for it. Yeah I focused on buffing my dome and trying out different traits, so that makes sense that I never found all of the relics. I also mined really inefficiently at first (as seen in the clips) before I realized I didn't have to mine every single rock.

Hey there, composer for Dome here. Thanks for showcasing our little game! I see a commenter has already pointed out there is a win condition (it is stated on the buildout screen, but you are hardly the first person to miss that, which is totally on us 😅 There will be a progression system likely similar to Into the Breach, where you unlock a currency you can spend on new traits, etc. There will also be new worlds with different variables and monster types, as well as different game modes. We're really shooting for a ton of replayability!

Cool! That's funny because I remember reading something about relics on the menu screen somewhere, but once I got my first relic I thought to myself "I guess relics don't give you a win because I got a relic but I didn't win." I'm excited to see what you guys add to it. I think it's a solid core gameplay loop, and I could see new systems and mechanics here and there being a lot of fun to experiment with run after run.

Good video. The sound is... you know it yourself. But your selection shows off some of the games I missed. And nice to see the devs coming and taking your feedback seriously. And I liked your comment at 19:03 "Compared to a game like Dead Cells" If we start comparing games to the movement that is possible in Dead Cells, then almost every game I ever played would lose. In Dead Cells you have so much freedom and you can cancel about every animation and decide to do something else instead, it is almost ridiculous.
@InsertReviews
2 жыл бұрын
Dead Cells has honestly ruined a lot of other 2D platformers (and other games) for me because that combat system gives so much freedom that almost everything else feels clunky in comparison. Yeah I think I'll have another video or two while away, but I'll have to try to figure out something with the sound for those lol

Hey man, nice review there, however while your mic is on and u are talking to it you can hear a strange buzzing sound like a fan, window noise or maybe some strange echo, its hard to describe, but u prob can check your own microphone sound wave for a bg noise and u will understand what im trying to say. Hope you will fix it in the future videos.

Yeah they felt similar in some ways and are the two roguelites that I have played that are straight forward or "pure" turn-based RPGs. Darkest Dungeon had more attrition systems in place (e.g. stress) that made it harder than Ragtag Crew, but tbd. Darkest Dungeon leaves behind big shoes to fill, but maybe Ragtag Crew can take up that challenge

Do you have a steam curator page? It would be cool to see a curator page list for these kind of videos so I can look at all of them together. You don't have to have a review for everything written for them, just the games all put in a list with the same name as the video. Thank you for another great video!

Nice selection! I can't wait for Beneath Oresa to come out, I really like the action, it breaks from other card games. Lone ruin make a good impression on me, it seems nice as far as weapons go, but indeed having only the survival mode to check out is not enough to say (and I'm also not a fan of these modes). Going to try vertical kingdom right away, I didn't notice this one. As for performances, at least for loopmancer (wishlisted too) it's clearly hardware related, it ran fine for me (rtx2060s).

Yeah Beneath Oresa definitely has a different feel just because of the animations. I suspected as much for Loopmancer. I was worried before I even downloaded it because of the file size and the detailed graphics from the preview videos on steam. Will have to try it again on my desktop at some point in the future.
