Not quite impossible. That can be a tricky combination without enough luck/hollow/heavy dice, but you can always tank the damage (unless you're low on hp).
If you beat the challenge, but your dice bag is full, the game will just hang and never move on. – You can’t even exit.
There is a bug where Pierce Die’s effect isn’t mirrored when combined with the mirror die. – It just does regular damage.
Other dies do have their effects mirrored properly, so I think it’s just a bug with pierce. /FYI
A request: it would be great if you could add controller support. – I really love this game and can’t wait for the steam release, but my hand injury makes it painful to play this game. – Would be great if we had Gamepad support. Just need to be able to move the cursor between squares and selectable objects, nothing fancy. I would adore that if you added it!
Yeah, I was afraid of that. I have anxiety about discord rn. Haven’t logged in on a few months and I probably have 10,000 messages to read. 😅
I’ll see about logging in there soon to double post this request / bug report. In the meanwhile I wrote a pretty crude glovepie script to use the number pad to place blocks, and the number keys to select them. It’s not great and it breaks for boss fights because the grid moves slightly, but it’s a stop gap for now.
suggestion: -after beating the evil frog on floor 25 /or/ after getting all the badges: unlock a new mode where the player can build their own dice deck at floor 1 instead of fighting the first enemy.
(would be fun to make up decks and give people who finished the game something fun to do and mess around with some wacky deck ideas)
After 4+ days of playing this game, I finally beat the Queen Bee and in the same run beat the game. I really enjoyed the mechanic of how to win, and I liked that you didn't actually get to fight the final boss and instead having the win determined by how well you fought up to that point. It's a long term payoff that felt great. Also this version of the game is ridiculously difficult at times, but I enjoyed the hell out of it and I can't wait for the full version!
I dont like the enemy where you have to hit them for exactly there health. I think it should work more like sturdy in pokemon with the ability to one tap them like the ability
This game is a lot of fun! I played the Prologue and the furthest I got was level 18. The game is simple to learn but hard to master. Can't wait for the full release!
can't outsmart the dev i just remade a clear run and i had 47 hp on floor 25 so the boss dealt me 45 damage but i tank it and the boss was suprise and hit me for 9999 damage this perfect run took me 2h to set up 10/10 game
Yeah, it is mostly about how you build your deck. The first 20 floors are actually easy once you understand the mechanics well. I can 'beat' the game every time now, regardless of RNG.
A really fun turn based rougelite reminiscent of games like Slay the Spire, a fun strategy game that is easy to learn but immensely difficult to master.

Game is sick I'm suprised how much you did with this simple concept.
game is incredible :0

Yes me too
this game is so awesom i really love it
instant wishlist , i cant whait to play the full version
This was a great game, good job
This game is so fun! I just got sucked in for hours optimizing my deck and refining my strategy. Highly recommend!i reached level 25 and i played for various day.
do your best we all are waiting for the realease on the steam :)
just beat the game! only problem is, one fight 2 weak spot enemies attacked me and I needed to restart because it was impossible:(
Not quite impossible. That can be a tricky combination without enough luck/hollow/heavy dice, but you can always tank the damage (unless you're low on hp).
I reached floor 20 on my first try, but I was at 12 hp and got killed by the boss :(
But aside from that, the game is awesome!
Tis the spirit of roguelike
more music please
i lost ):
and i got to floor 12. it's good for my first try, right???
yeah, more than halfway to floor 20!
first time getting 50+ floor(56 exactly) in endless mode.
man, phase 7 is no joke. I died from full 101 hp in like 2 rounds.
How do you play the endless mode ?
it's been a while since I played the game, so if nothing really changed at all (spoiler):
when you get floor 25 for the first time, the boss will kill you instantly, so you need to play the game again.
when you get floor 25 for the second time, now you will be able to fight the boss.
and if you manage to beat the boss, game will ask you whether you want to end the current run or enter the endless mode.
I love the Pixel graphics
On 1.6.2f, there are two bugs I’ve run into:
Other dies do have their effects mirrored properly, so I think it’s just a bug with pierce. /FYI
Thank you! 🙂
not sure if dev team is checking comments on itch.
their discord might be better option for bug report&feature request.
(I don't have a discord account tho, so cannot really tell this will work but you can give it a try.)

ahahah, I see brother.
I hope they make this permanent feature, so players don't have to find&create workarounds.
AMAZING game
Can't wait for Steam release!
Was thinking of some composition.
cute
fun, couldn't beat the boss.
I am so excited for the steam release ! this is a great game :)
wow that was fun
WAS THAT A BACKPACK HERO REFERENCE!?
Yes, it was.
Pretty nice game, add it to wishlist
i used to sturgle on the bee fight until i releazide the honey times 2 feture and i would abuse it
HOLD UP WAIT A MINUTE DID THAT MF SAY SISTER?
recipe for perfect run(10k):
run time: maximum 30 minutes
lowest hp: 20
it seems other things don't affect scoring.
edit: trying to get 10k for 7 times. let's see.

Hmm, didn't know this was the recipe for 10k. Seems pretty easy, I'll go and do that.

COOL! I have beat a lvl 25

I think this is an easter egg or something? Or just a bug? (well, technically it is lol)
I FINALLY BEAT THE BOSS
