#Game Speed
sick imp
considering we have a lot of high playtime users here I have a feeling this poll is going to be overwhelmingly D lol
1X was extremely painful to watch when NL was playing today but it's also super important to have a slow default in these kinds of games so people build intuition for how mechanics work

I assume so as well, I am more curious about the difference between C and E
For beginners 1X is necessary, honestly 0.5X is good for some people starting out too
remote sandal
Oh yeah I am not changing the default or anything

Have you considered an option that disables animations totally when tallying the score? 4x seems really fast (to me) already

2x isnt that bad, but when you have alot of effects on cards and jokers that trigger with cards it will start taking alot of time, this will probably be even more so in the full game
sick imp
that said, instead of a 10x i would love a "Disable animations" option to prevent situations like this where there is more animation than gameplay, even on 4X https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7THFXhFa4dQ&t=48s

i stick to 2X for the most part, but i'll change it to 4X partway through a run if i start getting bigger combos

When I was starting out I basically played a lot in 1X, just to savor everything in. As I was wanting to move things along and get my chips faster I've moved to 2X and have yet to use 4X yet, though I'm sure I'll feel a need for it eventually
sick imp
Yeah I would stay on 4x 99% of the time but if I were in a very "high animation time" run, id want to just disable them towards the end
glad tiger
i enjoy watching the numbers go up, its a bit too fast to really savor on 4X unless theres a lot going on
stoic gate
I switched to 2X after like 10 minutes, then to 4X after 1-2 hours or so. Don't feel the need to have it any faster tho.

or add another mode where if it would take longer then 20 seconds to speed it up to only take 20seconds

Interesting idea but inconsistent animation speeds might make me ill lol
jade edge
This is a silly point of granularity but I wish there was a 3X . 4X is just a bit too much for me lol
tawny tendon
Interesting idea but inconsistent animation speeds might make me ill lol
good point
glad tiger
id definitely support a "skip animations" option
sick imp
maybe only some animations need to be skipped, in the video I posted from Header the main offender was the 125 card going back and forth between hand and deck lol
jade edge
maybe a "condensed animations" option, for example makes planet cards only one 'tick' instead of three and everything updates at the same time
crisp frigate
I would maybe consider having some of the text stay up for longer on 4x
at the start of some of my intros I was considering putting them on 2x or something just to show the chips being summed up (instead of the text disappearing too fast)
clever pecan
I see no reason why introducing 10X would be a negative, and would like more granularity. Regardless, make all effects related to playing cards one speed setting and all animation related to random delete and change a different, etc. another speed setting. That would be great!

2x and 4x are comfortable

I physically cannot play under x4 unless I want to take a screenshot or want to see a multiplier go up
much like other people have said however, I also wouldn't go above x4
raven cove
I think the default speed makes sense given that it helps new players see how the jokers are contributing to the score but eventually yeah 4x or bust
elfin fog
being able to set it in a range from 0.5-10x would be awesome. Could have the ones in the poll as presets as well. Idk of that's feasible though
viral sinew
x100 at least
zealous sorrel
I had it at 2x for a while but I ran Hiker on a build and the ticking on each individual card was just too much, haven't really gone back since
I will say that I wouldn't have much need for anything faster than 4x, if there were an option like that I think disable animations would make the most sense
lost valley
I've been playing the demo for quite some time now and still stick to 1X
It's more chill this way, I usually sip the coffee and watch the numbers go crazy in the downtime
That's said I do think higher speeds are good to have as options
woven hull
Has anyone suggested a "Start speeding up animations if they are taking too long" setting? I would love to set my game to 2x if idk per animation it speed up 10% so by the time 5 cards have played the speed is already 3.22x
strong perch
I'm just chill by playing x1
I know people do play at higher speed but I want to give my brain that little rush of dopamine when the number goes up
delay gratification irl
indigo chasm
“Increase speed with Mult” option 👀

Instead of each number popping up sequencially, I'd love an option to just show all the numbers on screen at once, one time for the chips then another for all the +mults
