Played a little Slice & Dice here before bed. It's a great dice-based roguelite game made by @tann that I was tipped off to via @grogpod. Check the graphics. It's a blast. I'd been playing a little Demon's Tier+ earlier (as usual) and this was a great followup.

I've been playing the Android version (demo) that's here play.google.com/store/apps/det and it's on Steam and iPhone too.

A happy Wednesday to all! It's a very special DAYTIME CATTE STREAM! We're gonna be diving into Noita for my first streamed attempts at this fun but challenging af game! How many times will I blow myself up? Probably a lot!

Come hang! :3

Happy Monday, all y'all! Hope your week has started off swimmingly! We're gonna chill tonight with some deck builder roguelites, starting with a creepy little game that I have slept on for way too long...that's right, we'll be diving into Inscryption! We'll see how long we end up hanging around in the cabin, but we've got some other games lined up to peep as well, so we might hop around a bit...or we might find our souls stuck forever between the flash bulbs :O

I've been playing Archvale all day (these aren't my pics, just random ones of gameplay) -- this game is a BLAST. Imagine the first Zelda (fighting, puzzles, etc) but fun and playable (there's difficulty levels), plus more twin stick shooter action. It's an incredible game. I have it on Switch but it's on Steam etc too. Highly recommend.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! We're gonna jump into a Konba Krew tradition this evening: The Random Roguelik(t)e Roundup! We'll be checking out a whole bunch of random roguelikes and roguelites, and hopefully finding some cool new gems that you might be interested in trying yourself!

PLUS: Brand new meme eggs??? INCLUDING three new LEGENDARY eggs?? 👀

Embrace chaos! Come hang! :3

There have been many definitions of roguelikes and roguelites thrown around over the years, and Berlin Interpretation aside (it's too broad), a guy I was talking to the other day sent me a great, concise definition of both that I really liked (simplified, paraphrased and rewritten a bit):

Roguelike: (looking to "Rogue" for comparison): single character turn and tile based strategy rpg (i.e. NOT games like Rogue Legacy - they're just platformers!)

Roguelite: subgenre of roguelike built around metaprogress.

Rogue is a "Hack-like" (Hack is basically a proto-Nethack) and Nethack is a hack-like -- so Rogue, Nethack and Hack are all roguelikes.

My son is over and we're playing a bunch of games. My current favorite (and also one of his) is the INCREDIBLE roguelike Death Road to Canada. And like it sounds, you're fighting pixelated digital zombies in the apocalypse, trying to make your way to the safety of Canada. This game is SO fun and replayable (but beatable, we've beaten it three times since he's been here) and I suspect it would make an EXCELLENT party game. Up to four players can jump in and out. Every game is random and you don't win every time, but it's so wild and really hilarious too. I won this game in a giveaway and was pretty psyched but had no idea it was such a great game. Just a blast. You can even make your own characters too (and you'll meet some familiar ones), as you grab buffs, upgrades, and all KINDS of weapons. There's some really cool decision making involved along the way, along with skill you learn and luck you hope to have. Onward to Canada!
