@edmundmcmillen Does the game have ascending difficulty tiers like other roguelites to keep the game challenging?

Nearly 3 weeks till mewgenics releases! That means it’s time for another AMA! Ask me anything !!

@HelloGuillotine I sent an email a couple of days ago, but I'm never sure what folks might qualify me as. Press, or Content Creator. I'm just one person who posts reviews on my website and YouTube. But I don't stream, and I am on Open Critic and CriticDB. Should I use this form?

creators around the world you can now apply for Mewgenics! guillotine.vip/mewgenics 😸💯🔥👌 (this is game of the year btw we told you about expedition 33 last year and we're telling you again now)

Find me on the other app.

My review of Starship Troopers: Extermination.

Shipbreaker is an amazing game and one of my favorites. This is a good deal.

My review of MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries.

@eric_lang I'm not a game designer, but I probably have a dozen trashed prototype homebrews. I'm not sure I'd ever find it fun "finding the game" My ideas usually start with a theme, and I figure out how to make the mechanisms work in that theme. Effective? dunno, fun? For me, yeah.

I don’t have as much fun “finding the game” as I used to. If the vision is unclear at the start, very low chance of survival. Like single digit percent

This sucks. I have a LOT of emails from Merge, they published a LOT of games. Can't understand how they would close when they seemed pretty successful. I hope everyone who was at Merge lands on their feet.

@Pilestedt @helldivers2 Far to easy to the point that teamwork no longer feels like a focus. It's not the same game I bought, and I'm very disappointed in this direction.

So, what's your thoughts on the @helldivers2 patch so far? Faster TTK, More of a glass cannon, more variety of equipment.

My review of Wild Bastards. A really clever rogue-lite strategy shooter.

I'm hoping to have my review of Wild Bastards ready tomorrow. I've only had my review copy since the 9th, which isn't quite enough time to get a review out by its release today. Spoiler, it's good!

My review of Orcs Must Die 3

"Playfullness first, challenge second" Welp, Helldivers 2 was fun while it lasted. It looks like design by toxic gaming committee is gonna kill another one. Not like there isn't an entire Markey of power fantasy games they could have moved on to or anything. 😑
