Had my first solo game in a while today, which unfortunately turned out incredibly frustrating, since I did the thing of finding a blood runestone on the battlements, using it, and then realising only on the catacomb level that actually I'd needed to keep hold of that thing the whole time for the hell portal :(

 :-[

Just a reminder that you can use the /hw command to activate the Halloween mode and go to hell directly. Well, if you don't mind slight other changes like the annoying bats.

I will be continuing to support Tourney and work on 1.4.

It's nice to see that you are still updating it. Hopefully it will turn the tide on Steam review score and go from mixed into positive.

Thank you so much!  Keep it real, Bigosaur.

Oh, and my little brother wants to know what the inspiration for the spear-thrower’s 180 degree turn and throw move is.  It never fails to hit him, haha.

LOL. It was actually a bug in AI, but when it happened to me the first time, it felt so unique that I decided to leave it in the game.

This was a fun read.

I've actually had an idea for a game called Pungeon for a long time. If I ever decide to make it, I'm going to have to consult you  ;D

Hi,

1) Is there any indication to where the princess is hiding in the carrot achievement?

If you look really hard, a part of her is visible behind one of the trees. Maybe about 10 pixels total, but you can spot it.

2) For the pacifist achievement, you can complete it as long as you (the player(s)) don’t actually kill anything yourselves?

Yes.

Quote
For example, if they run into spiked balls, that’s fine?

Yes. You can also attack enemies (for example, to build up rage). As long as you don't deal a lethal hit, it's fine.

You can check when you pause the game, it should say "Pacifist" under your hero portrait (the first line of text at the very top, before all the other stats).

Congratulations on the release!

I hope it's going as well as you expected?

D'oh, sorry, didn't look back far enough in the thread. My bad!

No need to apologize, it was over a month ago and easy to miss.

Is there a converse /hwon for turning Halloween on at non-Halloween times of year?

Yes. /hw

I mentioned it earlier:

  • start the game
  • go into the hero selection screen
  • press T to open the chat box and enter the following command: /hw

Also, a friend of mine's halloween costume this year was based on a custom SoaW paladin skin I made for her, so that was a nice Halloween-SoaW moment too!

Wow. That is awesome.

BTW, I uploaded a new verison for players who want to play the regular game during the Halloween dates. Use the command /hwoff on the character selection screen to activate.

Oh, that's cool, I'll have to take a look :) I never really got round to finishing all the post demon slayer achievements too, maybe I should go back and try again sometime...

Well, a minor spoiler here: the Halloween Mode allows you to get into hell without activating the pentagram. In fact, you have to go through hell to complete the game. So, I guess it can help with some achievements.

I prepared a special game mode for the Halloween. It will be available on Steam from October 28 until November 1st.

I have uploaded a new version on Steam with these changes. If you don't want to wait, you can try it out now:

  • start the game
  • go into the hero selection screen
  • press T to open the chat box and enter the following command: /hw

The halloween mode will remain active until you restart the game. Minimum version for this to work is 5.4.0. If you have an older one, update on Steam.

The Halloween mode is Steam-only.

Hm. I had transferred cash to my other player, so maybe I just ran out of money and wasn't paying attention.

Well, the report was still useful. Since it's now only once per room, I increased the base effect to -20 gold, but I only did that for the potion and forgot to update the undead mages as well. Now I have fixed it to be -20 in both cases.

Just did a run where getting cursed with extravagance didn't seem to work - I got cursed with it by a skeleton wizard, and the only impact it had was a single -5 going through the door into the hell portal room. None of the other catacomb or hell rooms deducted me any money.

I tried, but cannot reproduce the problem. As a part of the Demons update, I have changed it to only trigger when entering new rooms (because the sound effect is annoying). Maybe it didn't work if you cleared all the rooms before getting the effect in the catacombs? Still, it doesn't explain why it wouldn't work in hell. Did you maybe use something that would remove it or just didn't pay attention on your first sweep of the level?
