You're amazing! It's a tough game! Thanks for the kind words.

The cursed rooms are actually a failsafe for when a room encounters a bug when loading. My newest update fixed a lot of rarely occurring problems with room loading, so the cursed rooms hopefully won't be as much of a problem when I release it. I need to finish several features that are blocking the release until completed, and I've been quite busy with life stuff, so it's been taking much longer than expected. Soon, is all I can say.

Thanks for coming back. It's people like you that keep me motivated.

Ah shoot so I might not be able to meet Asterius on that run then, can't find a way through or around that bugged room.

Once I got into the habit of always equipping "wait" the game became easier :P The biggest hurdle was to survive all the way to a boss room, but once I finally did that Kentaur is currently so easy and the blessed sword is such a game changer ( making goliaths absolutely trivial) that the rest of the progress happened pretty quick afterwards. Happy to give more complete feedback on the overall experience if you wish!

One thing I dont get is that I got those info scrolls about 2 amulets that do good stuff but after clearing the map and defeating all the goliaths I found none of em game those specific amulets!

Anyway, I'm a huge fan of Nethack and Asterius is one of the few games that make me feel really understood what was strong about it. A traditional roguelike where knowledge and understanding of the world is key to survival instead of grind. Love that you can leave notes for each entry in the bestiary, that's really one of the best additions to the genre I've seen in a long time!

You might be able to bomb around the cursed rooms if you have enough bombs. Sometimes you can go into rooms not charted on the map through walls that look solid. It's tedious and risky though.


I'll look into the amulet thing. There should be 2 out of 6 that are always good.

You can email feedback@boopsgames.com if you want to give detailed feedback. Either way, I appreciate all feedback, detailed or not.

No uncharted rooms around there unfortunately!

Ok, maybe I just missed a couple goliaths somewhere because I think I only remember 4 goliaths ( and 3 skorpions).
