Big changes: Mel's base sprint is faster and Mel can turn more easily. You can now dash out of other animations more easily and get a "quicker" dash via Arcana. All resource nodes are collectable throughout runs, the Tools just make that specific node more likely to appear.

Dear roguelike devs, Please, please, please, keep individual runs shorter, especially for action roguelikes. I see way too many that are 1+ hour long even at a quick pace. You can always have alternate zones instead of just tacking more on, we'll still love the variety.

"Will savefiles ever get wiped during early access of Hades 2? What about for 1.0?" Nope! The roadmap states that they plan to keep savefiles intact the whole time for players. They were able to do so for Hades 1 so we should be good.

So Chronos likes to tee up the instakill move while you're in the middle of losing a Death Defiance, often not leaving you enough time to get to the safe spot. We know he's immune to slow effects but this feels a bit harsh, not even sure it's totally intended.

Completely reasonable! We are being bombarded with great roguelikes this year: Balatro, Hades 2, Windblown, Rogue PoP and more. Many roguelikes are also designed to be played for a LOOONG time so playing many different ones can be challenging when most have an innate grind.

Hades 2 combat breakdown: Attack, Special, Cast and Dash are back. A, S and C have Omega variants by holding down the button. These moves cost Magick which has its own bar next to your health. Only one dash (so far) but holding down the button allows you to move faster after.

I've decided to put down Wukong without finishing it after about 30 hours. It's a pretty game but the combat is flawed to say the least. Every "challenge" the game throws your way is designed to be more annoying than actually difficult. 4/10 get it on sale.

Random predictions for #HadesGame2 : 1. Zag will be a fightable boss. 2. Beating Chronos rewinds time (explains why you can keep playing after winning). 3. FISHING WILL RETURN

Just wanted to state how much I'm loving the Elden Ring DLC, this fight was ridiculously close.

Should Balatro simply preview what score you'll get for each hand, all calculations provided? It's a really interesting design problem where giving us all of the info probably sucks some of the fun out of it. But to min/max, better get the calculator out.

Loved the video on this - a problem that is frustrating as the creator of Balatro but is also very interesting as a game designer and exposes the potential knock-on effects of a seemingly simple or obvious design change GMTK did a really great job summarizing the issue

Not sure if I ever shared this here but this was the first iteration of the Pact of Punishment in #Hades . You had to earn Heat by killing bosses too. 120 Heat back then was about equivalent to 32 Heat now.
