I found a new one while browsing called Karate Survivors, which seems to actually introduce some new and unique ideas. Things like a greater focus on using the environment to take out enemies, picking up weapons off the floor, kicking boxes or shopping carts into people, knocking over shelves and scaffolding to crush enemies with their contents.
Which is why it hurts so much to see the splash artwork look so AI generated.

I think someone publisher-side went all-in on generic fantasy art for promo images to try and stand out on mobile storefronts.

yeah now that you mention mobile it does look like very generic mobile mmo style art, i guess their mobile publisher is pushing to use that art even though theyre independent on pc ? i havent played alot of HOT recently but is there even a dragon in the game lol ?

Got a confirmation from the developer: the publisher went rogue and used AI images without their permission.

Yup
This isn't the first time I've had Erabit try to sneak AI into a game they want me to cover, so it's nice to finally get a confirmation that they suck.
Previously they claimed it was an accident, but in Halls of Torment's case the dev specifically told them that using the AI character art was a bad idea and they did it anyway.
unreal birch
damn, i was actually considering them for mobile publishing after reaching 1.0 since they helped me out early on with translation stuff but that seems like a really bad idea now... AI art is bad enough but then straight up ignoring the devs and using it anyway seems like it would be something that breaks their contract lol

Just got announced earlier today, another FPS boomshoot type survivors game in the vein of Vampire Hunters
drowsy jungle
It's okay.
I might make a video on it, but the gameplay just didn't grab me.
Vampire Hunters at least has the benefit of funny infinite scaling on weapons, and then also potentially dozens of weapons all at once.
Bloodshed only lets you wield one primary weapon at a time, plus spells that fire at set intervals.
But they all have static level scaling, so the actual stat min-maxing is bare minimum.

Mostly pixel art but some menu backgrounds and the store banner use a different art style, can't see any artifacts and they're pretty small so I can't quite tell if it's AI

Played this
Holy peak
It feels quite unique with lots of different playstyles and quirks
Reminds me a bit of an ARPG combined with Crafty Survivors
There's one character that recruits enemy units by dealing psychic damage, it plays almost like an RTS
There's a fire one that has great spells with high mana costs, while also having synergy with itself by gaining back mana on the ashes left of whatever you burn, which means that you gotta keep the flames spreading to continue your rampage. I obliterated the hobbit and forest level but found myself in a rather precarious position on the dwarven mines, which don't have a lot of flammable material and thus I had to adjust by playing more cautiously and taking advantage of chokepoints.

This one's neat.
Nails the hand of fate feel, but with ridiculous bullet heaven scaling.

“Unlocking”

Legacy games are a thing?
spring solstice
I might have to check this out
rigid matrix
It's a very well established concept at this point
stoic marsh
Legacy games are a thing?
A thing that I’ve never really quite understood why it’s a thing.
rigid matrix
Another thing is that the game board feels a bit small all things considered, so will it probably be either enemies requiring more hits or gimmicks around them. I think a big issue it'll have to deal with is that the game it's drawing inspiration from is about having a lot of enemies, but having a lot of components in a physical game board is notorious for being fiddly and difficult
stoic marsh
Okay it’s. In vampire survivors the game physically prevents you from playing with everything from the start.
A board game has everything there. All the pieces came in the box. All the cards are here. Why should I have to “unlock” or “earn” the ability to play with more of the board game? If it’s here physically and I have it….
I dunno. It’s probably a mental thing. Unlocking in video games feels like a normal thing to me but in board games it feels weird.
rigid matrix
I think it opens up a lot of design space, seen a lot of games that make great use of it. Dorfromantik for example has some components that you have to unlock by completing challenges, both being a reward for your effort and a way of progressively making the game more complex
Other games like ISS Vanguard can provide a changing narrative with unexpected surprises and a feel of progression, closer to a ttrpg adventure in a way
Given the nature of this game, I think Vampire Survivors will lean towards the former
It's a tricky thing to design, which is why not a lot of boardgames attempt such mechanics
Of course there are also some campaign/legacy games like Gloomhaven or Pandemic Legacy which involve the permanent alteration or destruction of components (most often with stickers), those I'm not particularly fond of since there's certain permanence to it (You can't just repackage everything to do it all again or give to someone)
As to what purpose they serve in this game, personally I think it's more for adaptation purposes and some replayability
unborn ridge
I'm not sure how it'll do the overpowered progression or the evolutions though
Hmm ok this seems pretty faithful adaption.
I do think simultainous turns would work better than sequental turns
stoic marsh
The closest I get to it, is that in The War For North Africa you can research benefits that help you in the game. But that’s a game mechanic, researching and getting something for that one play session.
A true “meta unlock” I mean. The only way to really properly do that in my head is to have people send in their ending board states and then mail out the “unlocks” because again. The box is all there. It’s not a TTRPG like gloomhaven (yes I consider that a TTRPG).
It just feels weird. Like it’s mimicking what worked in another format to attempt to cling to faithfulness, rather than explore the board game space to try something new.
Things are made in specific media to take advantage of it, trying to perfectly 1:1 something in a new medium is almost always going to end up as a worse product rather than using the essence as guidence to do something new.
I’m probably just being weird. I dunno.

I need to see if charterstone still exists anywhere. Legacy game where you build up a town and every session you play on a board you've added to and whatnot. My lgs mentioned it and when I finally had money and wanted it, twas gone
stoic marsh
funky.
sonic crest
Thing about board games is, once they're in your house they're yours in every sense of the word. You could open up every secret pack immediately if you felt like it, or you can go by the honor system and save each pack until it's time to use them. Sometimes the legacy system is used to ease people slowly into the rules of a game and the general loop before introducing more complex ideas.
The only legacy games I don't like are the ones that ask you to permanently change the pieces. Sealed packs can always be resealed, but if the game tells you to rip up the cards, or mark them with stickers? I don't care if the game is built to be played over a dozen or a hundred campaigns, it's still a game I can only play once.
stoic marsh
yeah thats fair. I also agree on the permenant damage point
hate when my stuff asks me to break it

As far as I know VS is currently using Unity, so for this Warhammer Survivors the probably just took the Unity project of VS and started reskinning it

Oh weird
Sorry about that then
I’m culling old/big emails because google is trying to charge me for storing them, and I’m trying to avoid deleting any keys when doing so.

Warhammer Survivors demo is out

Isn't that literally just a reskin of Vampire Survivors

I'd consider it closer to a standalone expansion than reskin
Of course it doesn't integrate into the main game
I guess a spinoff but not in the way Vampire Drafters is a spinoff
But yeah it does have some unique weapons and gimmicks even if it does share the same Vampire Survivors base
