I watched Dan stream this last night and then hopped into a random stream of it too and it looks like it might have been very ambitious with all of its systems. Disappointing to hear from the reviews that the multiple systems don't really pay off; one to wait for a discount/gamepass I suppose.

If the developer gets enough success to push ahead with a sequel, that might be when the systems can develop more depth.

Returning to this thread to whinge that the game is unfinishable for me because a bug means the final boss doesn't die after hitting 0 hp. I've re-run the fight nearly a dozen times now trying different things but for whatever reason can't continue past this point, plus because of the way it ends I also can't just go do other stuff instead.

I had a great time with it though, I'm sad to put it down without proper closure. There were so many good and clever little design choices along the way and the writing is mostly pretty funny and only occasionally obnoxious.

Tilt to Live

Picked this up on Gamepass after seeing this thread and am having a great time but I think I might be done now. I hit a bug a few hours in when no new quests were available and I ended up having to restart. This time through I got maybe 10 hours in and again hitting the same issue where no quests are available so I can't make any more progress. Real bummer.

*edit* I gave it another try and this time on reloading the save a raid on the village happened and everything's working again. Big relief, bug downgraded from bummer to annoyance.

See You Next Game

@peffy: good point, well made. I forgot about that.

I've played the first 3-4 hours of the game now and I'm super impressed. There's some real creativity in the way it gets the two players to work together to solve problems. The story seems a little basic but is ripe for turning expectations on their head.

Shout out to the developer/publisher for allowing two people to play with one copy. I don't know if that was always the plan or if it became the plan when the pandemic meant lots of people wouldn't be able to couch co-op, but it makes it much easier to recommend.

Quite excited to play this game, really enjoyed playing A Way Out co-op despite some flaws. I just noticed that there's a QL Live scheduled for today (24/3/21) at 5pm (UK time) according to YouTube.

It's odd that it's not on the release schedule on the front page, but thought I'd flag it up for anyone else curious when a QL would be coming.

@laughingman: I think I stopped playing TD games when they all went heavy on the F2P mechanics and lost a lot of charm. I'm intrigued by Arknight, I'll download it and give it a try thanks for the recommend.

@alistercat: disappointgly not in a legitimate fashion, am hoping C4 picks it up at some point. It's available in full on YouTube (don't know forum rules on links so I'm trusting you can find it)
