Hack Slash Crawl
« on: February 25, 2011, 04:40:07 pm »

I thought this was a nice take on rogue-likes:

It can be kind of bland, but it's interesting to play it.

It won't run for me :/
I can check the instructions, I can click "Play" after it loads, but then it gives a black screen and nothing happens.

Yeah, they basically just act as your score.

Is there a point at which you win? Because it just keeps going.

I played it but got bored very fast, you practically can't die, just wait for HP to refill between fights and RUN when it starts getting grim, and you can't loose.

You'd think that, until you start getting dashers. When you have 3+ of them on you, you have to fight and have other means to survive.

The only use for tangle would seem to be the dashers, but dashing negates tangle. I personally just use assloads of bolt.

I sometimes use tangle to slow bosses down while I take care of their minions. But it's definitely my least favorite power.

After playing 5 or 6 games I've decided that it's fun but really needs to be expanded upon.

True, it does. The concept is a nice adaptation of a rogue-like, but it does need some more things to do.

Swarm is the most broken power in the game. It lets you kite enemies for a really long time.
