a bit more generous hurtbox that likely won't have "thin air around enemies killed me"
slightly stricter jump-through platform climbing (the generousity here seems to work against the player)
something about jumping towards poles while enemies are around killing you (not a bug; just bs moment)
(less important one) M2 styled gadgets (as seen in their battle garegga & other shmup ports) that show enemy spawn order & combo timer & other useful stuffs
ALWAYS use fused cards for the red pile except the ace; 1 -> 1+1 -> 1+2 -> 2+2 -> ...
Stack all cards in descending order and the rest is purely cheesing the above strat
Once you have the fused card, don't use it right away; keep it there until you get the next combination for 2 free cells instead of just 1 you'd normally use
You can play this game with normal 52 card deck by representing fused cards w/ 2 horizontal cards side by side
Those tips will reduce the game's difficulty by one whole star if you're having troubles
Game seems to slow down real hard in some places up to 1s on timer taking about 1.5s in real time (and rest of the GMS games didn't have that much slowdown) Might want to check for some memory leaks
1. Get squished with 95%-ish heart filled 2. Get something else squished & get a heart 3. Have something hit your flying corpse 4. Get disappointed by the fact that unlike Battle Garegga you don't get anything cool for doing this except for bragging rights
I can pinpoint 1 & 3 walls in 1st & 3rd column respectively but the remaining 2 have 2 possible layouts and both makes sense (one gives the intended answer, the other reduces maze path by 6 spaces); am I missing something?
Player movement should be screen-space dependent (So horizontal movement speed is the same as vertical all the time...normalizing diagonals can be good but not necessary)
Wish that bomb had iframes
Current controls are really awkward (one-handed play intended or not I'd like more or less regular controls)
Now that I actually managed to play this game I'ma just slide a bug report in
Game seems to save your score only for your first play after opening the game and won't do it otherwise (and that's how I didn't get to put my 150k-ish record on a screenshot)
Yup. Called it. Someone just had to abuse the mino dragging strat. (More reasons to simply disable checking the currently falling mino instead of adding convoluted mechanics)
I think the entire OP edge problem can be avoided entirely by only counting the mines in already placed minos (and the edges if there will be any after this comment) only Currently & theoretically any open edges can be abused to pinpoint mines in a falling mino if you can pay attention to the numbers since each mino has only like 4 spaces (In practice I only managed to abuse the edge 0's to open mino's 0's but imagine if someone with good attention comes by...)
5657pt and still patiently waiting for the post-jam update
In the meantime here's an analysys of when to move away from farm milking and attempt at getting score from elsewhere (assuming 4 fires per level, not counting points from fire)
2 adjacent edges (4 farms on one edge, 5 farms on the other), 5 fire on adjacent corners: 20x4 for first fire, 20x9 for second fire, total 520pt
3 adjacent edges, (4 farms on "center" edge, 5 farms on the rest), 5 fire on corners between the edges: 20x9 for each fire, total 720pt
These are import when going through the x55 levels (exp requirement ending in ~55)
And for any players out there: Here're theoretical maximum number of points one dice can earn:
Forest: 54pt (6+6x8 adjacent spaces; don't expect this high tho) Lake: 32pt (4x8 spaces; Lake seems to be d4) Bomb: 25pt (25 destroyed) Farm: 20pt (2+3+4+5+6 w/o milking) Fire: 16pt (6+10 destroyed) Mountain: 6pt (6) Village: 4pt (4)
Protips from someone who just got 2493pt (Jam Ver.):
All you really have to know are those strats
Farm Cheesing: Place a low value farm, and keep passing turns until it hits 6
Farm Milking: After a farm hits 6, use a non-6 fire to reduce its value, and keep passing turns again
Unlimited Free Rerolls: Keep passing turns until you get the value you want
Also a bug report: You get a game over even if you fill the last space of the board with a bomb/fire which manages to open some space up (my 2493 run ended because of this)
Possible error on Scoring section: Text says that everyone other than the winner gets +1 dice when the round ends, but the example game doesn't do that for round 1. Which one is the right one?
