We've been improving our campaign and balancing the difficulty, and during the process, we went a bit too far with the number of foxes 😅

Here's a thought: a (run-based game with no meta power progression) emphasizes the competence gain of the player, while a (run-based game with meta power progression) emphasizes the competence gain of the avatar.

Find more context on competence (self-determination theory), its place in AAA and F2P markets, the effort of play, as well as the procedural rhetoric of games here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/169

I came sooooo close to conquering all 10 zones tonight! Oh well… on the bright side this is the furthest I’ve made it so far. Give it a few hundred more deaths and I’ll get it! Tonight’s run had all the fixin’s; chain lightning deaths, siphoning energy from destroyed enemy ships, such upgrades, much enemy destruction! :blobcat:

See you, Space Cats.

August 25, 2023 - Day 237 - NewPlay Review
Total NewPlays: 257

Game: Banners of Ruin

Platform: Steam
Release Date: Jul 30, 2021
Library Date: Aug 9, 2023
Unplayed: 16d
Playtime: 19m

Banners of Ruin is a roguelite deckbuilder in which a mouse and a bear attempt to take back their city from the corrupt folks who stole it.

With two and a quarter hours sleep last night, I figured I'd get in early for a NewPlay and review, because I'm not even sure I'm going to make it through the morning.

Banners of Ruin came in the same bundle as Shred 2, and where Shred 2 felt like a "oh well, nothing lost", Banners of Ruin is a bit of a surprise.

Although it's quite different, it reminds me mostly of Slay the Spire, and while initially put off by the idea of trying to play a deckbuilder and remain conscious, it's actually fun.

The tutorial was well done, but a little bit too loquacious, and determined to hold my hand even after I'd grasped the basic mechanics, but once through the tutorial, I had a fun, if short run.

On the downside, it insisted on starting on a secondary monitor, and we had a fundamental disagreement about which monitor is which. It also supports a quite limited number of resolutions for a game that was released mid-2021, only running up to 1920x1080, but Fullscreen is an option, and the graphics don't suffer at all.

All in all, Banners of Ruin seems to be a fun way to kill 15 minutes here and there, and is:

4: Good

Every once in awhile a green cube will appear in one of the zones, and if you destroy it the cube will leave a portal behind leading to a random world. I think I found The Matrix. :blobcatcool:

Lately I've been really enjoying Keyboard like and

There's something very satisfying to me about an atmospheric game with a simplistic interface where you set up a perfect chain of events to either cause absolute chaos or simply strategically get rid of a problematic element in a level by willing the event into existence with a terminal interface like you're some kind of technomancer without any actual magic, just a keyboard.

I want more.

In this episode of my blind Let's Play of (PC), I initiate my first run with Ace, the Zero-analogue of this game. He feels a lot better to play than in 20XX
