The new vault quest is great!

I really like it. I like the stealth mechanic, and the Shahrazad style game within a game. It's fun to be scrounging around, finding a +3 weapon, and feeling like you're suddenly doing ok. Much like the main game, except it's a little bite-sized game.

Perhaps in the future, consider making it a mini game you can start from the title screen! I'm imagining players could pick their level (maybe up to some reasonable maximum appropriate for the quest), then try to beat the vault, choosing their talents when they enter. It could be a fun challenge to see how low of a level you can start at and still win. It would be extra hard, though, because no items would be ID'ed yet. I'm curious what others think of the idea.

[BETA] New runestone sprites

The colors and shading on the new runestones make them difficult to differentiate visually, especially with low screen brightness or night mode. I often play on low brightness at bedtime and it's really hard to see. There needs to be more contrast between the color on the stone and the stone itself.

Stylistic comment: the new sprites for runestones and seeds look like eggs. Too perfectly round in their shape

Question to Evan: what's your preferred way to provide beta feedback? This is my first time getting involved in beta even though I've been playing for 10+ years

New design - runestone

Overall I like the new design. My only gripe concerns the runestones, which I find a too "voluminous" compared to the other designs. I think it comes down to the gradient black to brightest grey being a bit too strong compared to other items. Yellow is tuned to current gradient so would be impacted by a change.

On a similar note scrolls' darker band in the middle could be a tad white brighter for the same reason, but they don't compete too bad with the rest of the game so it's just a personal taste rather than the item standing out from others in the inventory.

Ghost is an idiot

Is there a way to train my ghost not to be an idiot? Every time i play with rose i ask ghostie to do something - stay in this spot, or follow me, then an enemy appears and ghostie like an excited puppy charges straight towards the enemy and totally forgets my instructions. Often this involves temporary death for ghostie and inconvenience for rat punchers. Is there a solution?

[DEV] DERanged Pixel Dungeon has been updated to 1.2.0!

DERanged is a fusion between ReARranged and concepts from my other mods, like RKA and Summoning.

This release focuses on fixing issues and backporting more things from RKA, like Kromer-based items. It also adds Summoning: Reincarnated's mystery merchant to metamorph or degrade your talents.

[Fixed] The new Dwarven Vault crashed when I tried to imbue my staff. Had to start all over.

I tried to imbue it with a Wand of Disintegration and the game immediately crashed. I was still in the mirror room at the time.

I'm playing Battlemage, and have the talent that returns the previous staff wand once per player level, not that the staff currently appeared to have an imbued wand, not even Magic Missile.

Update:

This time I quit my game before trying again so it would save. The crash happened again, so it's repeatable. I was not in the mirror room this time, and trying to imbue other wands crashes, too.

[DEV] Coming Soon to Shattered: The Vault Quest!

Hey Dungeoneers, after far too long of a wait, v4.0.0 is finally ready for beta!

This update ended up ballooning in size from just adding a new quest, I'd say it's arguably Shattered's biggest update yet at this point! There's a massive new quest, a bunch of new in-game art, 6 new enchantments, and plenty smaller changes and adjustments.

In this blog post I'm going to quickly show off some of the now-finished new quest. Don't expect all the details though, I wouldn't want to spoil everything!

Glass Floor Tile

Last night I had a dream I was playing Shattered Pixel Dungeon, only with a weird trinket I don't remember the specifics of, and one other feature that was actually fairly interesting to me.

Some floor tiles, including entire rooms, were light blue glass. Each tile would get progressively cracked each turn the player or a mob stood still (not sleeping) on it, or an item was thrown on it. Bombs immediately destroyed all glass panels in the vicinity, as did wand of blast wave. Destroyed panels were permanently converted into chasm tiles.

Was this ever an actual mod? The images in my mind of how this worked are extremely vivid.

Card Game

Well, this has nothing to do with the card game I'm developing. This is another idea for a card game that would work in a duel-style format, like MTG and YGO. I'm just posting it because it might be interesting, too. Especially since it would be much simpler. The famous hyperfocus on what doesn't matter (or maybe it does, because what matters is being happy).

[DEV] Shattered v4.0 Beta in Another Day or Two!

Hey folks, the beta for v4.0 is almost ready!

I've been making a few final tweaks and squashing a few bugs, and the biggest thing I've got left to do now is write the blog post.

I expect that I'll be able to release the beta sometime on either the 14th or the 15th, just barely making the 'first half of august' ETA I set previously.

In the meantime, here's one final teaser. If you're able to get to the end of the vault, expect an assortment of upgraded loot! You can only take one thing back though, choose wisely!

Wands tier list (spd)

Since we have a new update i will give some tier list there to remember 3.3.8

Explanations from worst to best (my opinion)

Useless:

- Wand of corrosion : this is literaly the worst wand its to dificult to aim corectly, and the enemy will easy escape from there. You cant use it in close range becose you also take damage, the chaotic censer is 100 times beter than this becose its pasive.

Need scroll of upgrade or meh:

- Wand of magic misile : i think this one explain itself jajaja, its only usefull in the fisrt region if you dont upgrade it

- Wand of regrow : it have limited charges so you cant spam it when you want. It helps you farm seeds and water but if you want it to be REALLY usefull you need to upgrade it since it adds more charges and unlocks a special ally, but itself its not the big deal

- wand of corruption : this thing is for too specific situations since its just a suport wand, but when upgraded it can do **miracles**. The corrupted allies are just too strong witch also helps to make EVEN MORE corrupted allies, and the condemned curse in boses its way way way to helpfull. There is also a special and **funny combo** whith the corpse dust: since wraith have 100% chance to be cursed you can literaly walk and when one of them spawn you shoot it and automatically converts to an allie.

Good:

- Wand of desintegration : it have a decent amount of damage

- Wand of ligthning : it have a good damage but you need to be carfull when used

- Wand of transfusion : it helps a lot as a suport wand since enemies cant atac you while cursed, but it can be beter if it can replicate the siren's song scroll efect when upgraded

It make the job done:

 - Wand of warding : the extra eyes help a lot in lower levels since its to dark, i dont need it to do more than that.

 - Wand of prismatic ligth : same as the warding wand but it also helps cheking traps and blind enemies.

 - Wand of fireblast : the only reason i put it the its becose it have a excelent area damage either i have put it in "Good"

 - Wand of living earth : the shield is extra life and the allie its an excelent distraction for enemies or even pasive damage, the oly 

 - Wand of frost** :slows the enemie and give you extra turns which is very helpfull. when upgraded it should frost enemies but it dont make nothing :(

BEST

 - Wand of blast wave :can kill enemies (that dont fly which is more than 80% of the game) by throwing the into the chasm in only one turn ignoring everything, and upgraid it just nerf it becose it makes harder to aim. So you have it maxed since you find it, also stun and keeps away anthing, can open doors and activate traps. Pushes you so you can jump small chasm and traps aiming corectly and make you faster.My favourite❤️ The olnly bad thing i can say about it is:
