    Oh, I guess you got the bad ending. I doubt that one is going to be canon for future content.

    I don't see why with a little creativity with an alternate storyline that you couldn't have future content. The Developer has obviously put some thought into having multiple endings, yet indicating right at the end there is more to come even in the ending I had.

    Hm maybe, but if they are going to give each ending a separate start off point for future content then we might have a case where the ending doesn't influence the new content much. It's sort of what happened with The Walking Dead game. No matter how you ended season 1, season 2 started off more or less at the same point. That sort of trivialized the decisions you took earlier.

    I hear ya on that one. But my impression based on all the little flourishes in this particular game that did not have to be there is this developer may just go that extra step. Especially since the the end screen appears to have a different number and letter combination depending on the choices you make. I am assuming there are four: A1, A2, B1 and B2 (mine was B2). From my programming experience, it wouldn't be difficult to use the ending variables to store separate story lines. It is not a matter of programming complexity, rather just taking the extra time to flesh out each storyline plot. My hope (and based on the effort I have seen, I think it is pretty likely) is that the developer will keep continuity of the multiple endings for any add on content. I actually don't think I received a bad ending. Rather, I think I discovered one of the more interesting plot points that adds depth to the overall story.

    The King, Princess AND The Guardian died. That's a pretty bad ending :p The only other bad ending would be if the heroes lose, which is just the normal defeat screen.

    Also, I didn't mention any complexity in programming different routes. The problem obviously is the actual breadth of content that would be added if each route was to be explored separately. There's only so much you can put into a $2.99 game, unless you go the way I described in my earlier post where you get a small intro segment that changes based on the endings and the rest of the game is more or less the same for all routes.

    Use Trista's Revive S. Skill. Activate it once before entering the room or before the spikes kill you.

    65 hours in and I beat it. Game wasn't perfect, but even its flaws were mostly charming and memorable. Just super fun and addicting in all the right ways. Most I've played a game since Dungeon Raid and 10000000. Would gladly pay whatever price they asked for more content/a sequel. For me, a game like this is priceless.

    That is one of the steps to getting the good ending.

    You're about 65-70% done. I would say 6-8 hours more.
     
  17. Oh wow. Now I'm really curious if the new content will be different depending on the ending you got. I guess there are four possibilities?
    Mine was A2: Allow Rajal to live, and save the seal instead of the king.
    A1 was probably the intended ending, in which you save the king.

    Do any of the choices cause you to miss any dungeons or have different ones?

    No, the dungeons are all the same. My feeling right now is that we might get an epilogue update which will have dungeons across the river on the final continent. Those will depend on your choices.

    Not sure which tier the 8k emblems are but you get two tier 6 emblems from blue chests in the conch cave and the tower of deity. For the other two you ah e to heist. If you can make it past this area without needing all the tier 6 stuff you can just buy tier 7 emblems on an upcoming shop.

    You're welcome :)
