Carrot stick. Rinse repeat. You can have very satisfying runs and you get in a zone. It's both exciting and chill. Reminds me of geometry wars meets rouge likeHonest question, what's great about it? It looks simple and repetitive.
Good edit. I agree it's somewhat mindless, but I find it perfect for a brief session. I thought more on it, and it's like Geometry War had a baby with Rogue Legacy.I love me some simple and silly roguelikes but this is absolute mindless trash. It's a meme game that went viral so unless you really have a strong case of FOMO, I wouldn't bother lol.
If you really want to give it a go you can play the free version in your browser here:
EDIT: Actually, calling it "mindless trash" is a bit harsh lol, I get that not every game needs to the pinnacle of high brow entertainment or whatever so ya. It's not for me but I'm happy for those that enjoy this.
The music slaps when you open a chest.yeah. It's good shit. The soundtrack is also really fucking good if not a bit repetitive, it puts you in the zone to keep playing.
no idea why but the game gives me weird nostalgia for 90s arcades even though it really has nothing to do with those times. Again probably the music.
Yes, it's simple, even have no gameplay instructions (or maybe it does but I didn't notice), but perhaps because of its reasonable difficulty, it does have a strangely happy magicHonest question, what's great about it? It looks simple and repetitive.
garlic is good for early game. Magic wand though... evolvedGarlic is key for my strategy so far
For some reason, one guide of Steam does not recommend it, but for me it is almost a game-breaking weapon, especially in the Mad Forest. The evolved fire (meteors) is pretty crazy as well. And the stop-time rays also come handy.Garlic is key for my strategy so far
They become useful because of the evolutions. Garlic and health and heart and whip.For some reason, one guide of Steam does not recommend it, but for me it is almost a game-breaking weapon, especially in the Mad Forest.

I mean, everything is useful. Except the defense/life powerups. It doesn't matter if you get them, if you are trapped without good weapons, you are pretty much dead anyways.
So the birds are worth a damn? I haven't gotten that good yet. My best time is like 12 minutes. Guess I'll have to keep playingmy strategy?
Every single evolved area dmg item plus both bomber birds.
You can just stand there and nothing will touch you. Not even on the new map in hyper mode
Life is somewhat useless, but defense is really not. If you get trapped with full armor, you can occasionally just force your way out - you just need to pick the right direction.I mean, everything is useful. Except the defense/life powerups.

Evolved garlic FTW....my strategy?

Wizard wand is upgradable. Or are you talking the freezing chrono thingUntil level 4-5 they are pretty weak.
After the upgrade, they become the best weapon in the game, can be upgrade to level 7 again, and opens you another weapon slot.
In general area DMG is very strong in this game so this build is basically:
Try get upgraded garlic from the 10 min mark (garlic and pomarola). Extra XP early on helps on that.
Upgrade your luck and try to get wand, both birds, bible axe and the respective combo (empty book helps a lot too).
Every time you get a chance to pick a combo match you do it. Them focus on upgrade the birds at every chance.
When you open the other slot, go for either the ice staff or Holy water (both op af and not upgradable so your defensive slot doesn't matter).

Game ends at 30 minutes you were THAT CLOSE, all the more reason to jump back in and go again....I was so addicted to the challenge I didn't touch another game till I did.My longest run yet.
Just did it, at least I think I did?Game ends at 30 minutes you were THAT CLOSE, all the more reason to jump back in and go again....I was so addicted to the challenge I didn't touch another game till I did.
Learning the balance of leveling/adding your weapons while maintaining the DPS output to stay safe is the true art of this game and when you become good you'll find yourself with the ability to stop moving at all and let your damage kill the waves around you
