I just wanted to post this website. It has everything you need to know about the game. vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #6 vectorarchitekt, Apr 15, 2015 Looks kg forward to this one. Also curious to hear/see more on Discover O and Impulse GP LordGek Well-Known Member Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Feb 19, 2009 12,282 141 63 Software QA Engineer Saratoga, CA, USA #7 LordGek, Apr 15, 2015 Just to be clear, the game tracks your top NON-DAILY CHALLENGE scores as well, right? diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #8 diego_cath, Apr 15, 2015 Exactly. Scores are divided in 2 leaderboards: Daily Challenge and Normal Scores (through game center). Game Center leaderboards don't include scores obtained in Daily Challenges because if you have 2 devices, you can play on one of them, then watch the replay of the best player in the leaderboard, then copy what he did on your second device and get the same score. KennyW Member Dec 13, 2014 8 0 0 #9 KennyW, Apr 15, 2015 I can't play the daily challenge! There are just "you can strat playing daily challenge" but no the "Play" buttom diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #10 diego_cath, Apr 15, 2015 Yes, that's right. You can't start playing Daily Challenge right after you download the game, you need to wait until 0:00 GMT. If you could start playing immediately, you would be able to delete the app, then re-download and play the challenge as many times as you wanted. LordGek Well-Known Member Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Feb 19, 2009 12,282 141 63 Software QA Engineer Saratoga, CA, USA #11 LordGek, Apr 15, 2015 Smart thinking and I have no concern if GC is used for the game or not, just as long as my local scores are tracked somehow. I'm actually a bit biased AGAINST GC leaderboards: -GC leaderboards are easily hacked. -Bogus GC scores appear to be near impossible to cull. -Resetting a GC leaderboard completely is impossible, so if scoring is significantly changed the devs are usually forced to create an all new leaderboard. -Too many devs using GC leaderboards get lazy, requiring the player to access GC just to see their top local scores. It is my firm belief that local scores should ALWAYS be easily accessible in-game without requiring me to access GC (which can be slow to update). diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #12 diego_cath, Apr 15, 2015 Last edited: Apr 15, 2015 Well to be clear the game only tracks 2 scores locally: best win and maximum score. These are saved in your device, so you don't need to load GC to see them. I might add a "personal high sores" section with your top 10 scores or something like that in the next update. Now, regarding GC: yes, there are a lot of people who hack their scores, but it is also easy to delete those scores and block those players. Also, in Arcane Tower scores come with meta-info (most used spell and other things), which should make it even easier to catch hackers.

MasonHurst Well-Known Member Jan 9, 2013 429 0 0 #14 MasonHurst, Apr 16, 2015 Damn. How dare you use logic to confuse us all! diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #15 diego_cath, Apr 16, 2015 Hahaha, yes.. I should change that text. It should probably say "You can't play Daily Challenge right after downloading. You can start playing in about x hours" diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #16 diego_cath, Apr 16, 2015 :-o the game just became available in my country! I died in the Daily Challenge though MasonHurst Well-Known Member Jan 9, 2013 429 0 0 #17 MasonHurst, Apr 16, 2015 There's something poetic about a game's creator dying in his own creation. Makes me think of when Lord British was "assassinated " in his own stronghold online. But without the rambling - I'm gonna buy your game now. I love roguelike's like these...plus I generally suck at them so it means a lot of short games # Nergal Well-Known Member Dec 16, 2014 124 0 0 #18 Nergal, Apr 16, 2015 There doesn't seem to be much fanfare over this game yet. It look awsome though, hope to get some imps soon diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #19 diego_cath, Apr 16, 2015 Hahaha, great words. I'm glad you like roguelikes, I'm sure you will like this one once you start to understand the mechanics. diego_cath Well-Known Member Mar 18, 2015 140 0 0 #20 diego_cath, Apr 16, 2015 Oh, the game is now out in the US. Thats great Yeah, I guess hearthstone is going to be too big this week? (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
