Heard a rumor that this hasn't come out yet cuz the developer is adding a Super Hardcore mode that bricks your iPhone when you die.
Zing, Flowbee. No, no Super Hardcore mode. Just Normal, and then a limited, easier EASY mode. I wanted to tell you guys though that we have a new video out: "HOW TO PLAY" Check it out: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
I can't wait to get really far and die in such a stupid way that it makes me wince even weeks afterward.
an online leader board is a really nice feature. Or it will be for the first 5 minutes until people get impossible high scores that I can't compete with. lol Any update on when this will be submitted to Apple?
Anyone who's not sure if they like the idea of permadeath, download iNethack for free and try that. *Evil laugh* ...Then you can expect that if you play probably any other Roguelike on idevices, they will be like that, but about 10 times easier. As I said in the Fargoal thread, I finally came to the point where I felt I should step away from nethack after dying from falling down the stairs to the next level. Awesome game, but so effin' hardcore.
Or give Shiren the Wanderer a try on the Nintendo DS. My vote for the best game on that system. The dev has copped to being a fan. Though it's hard not to be; it's perfect.
+1 on 100 Rogue's status. This is one of my most anticipated games... thought it was gonna be out around this time
On the 100rogues.com forums one of the devs said they'd be ready to release "in just another week or two." I'm guessing nearer to May is when we'll get this.
I'm dying for this too. Current official word is "We're implementing "CHALLENGE MODE", a linear set of puzzle missions, tomorrow!", as found on the facebook page & twitter. By the looks of the beta forums, this is maybe part of a bug quashing version that is possibly one of the last..? Maybe a dev or beta tester might throw us a better bone here... please? m(_ _)m
Oh my... if they still are building in features and need to beta test, I expect it in early or middle of May... :/
