main website only seems to mention Mac and Linux versions coming in the future. Maybe once he gets those out he might eventually do a Vita version I dunno. I'd say this game needs a big screen considering the clusterfuck of enemies/projectiles that can be in a room.

I've bought more games this semester than I have these past 2-3 years. With Gamefly I never tend to buy games, but ever since I got my 3DS I had a crapload of backlog and newer games with a lot of replay value so it was worth it. Not to mention niche PC titles like Shadowrun and future indie/kickstarter titles.

Just beat the Maya boss [Ponce de Leon]. Took me about 5-6 heroes. And it wasn't even because he's hard, I was 6-7 levels above him [to compare]. If you thought the little floating skulls  of the previous boss were bad Mal, this one leaves a trail of fire wherever he fucking floats. Not to mention the purple spiked balls are floating in every possible direction of this wide open room. So combine fire all over the screen+spiked balls and you are seeing one tough boss battle where the tough shit isn't the boss.

 

Funny enough beat him with a Paladin over a Barbarian Queen [the extra damage per hit makes all the difference

 

edit: Also I am having the worst fucking luck finding armor and better swords. I only recently got the ranger chest and helmet, and I'm already about to head into the catacombs. There's literally more than 1/2 of squares still open. I wish there was something I could do to unlock armor/weapons but it's just luck of the draw.

I killed him last night. Once you get a pattern going, Sir Ponce isn't that hard (Though a barbarian helps). Clockwise circle, more or less. Sure sometimes I had to drop down to the fiery balls filled depths but it was fine since I played Touhou so its all good!

 

WaS, wait till you get the Guardian cape. I squealed like a child when I saw it in the smith's place. Its a fair amount of defense. Single digit damage on myself is a beautiful thing to see.

GOH: Honestly I would suggest taking the 70% gold by locking down the castle and going straight to him. You might not get as much gold from beating him but that sure beats having to roam around the castle. Me personally I have runes that give me life when I kill so once I find the boss I want I tend to transport to the regular castle and kill the weaker enemies until my life is recharged.

 

And Mal fuck you. I have the shittiest of capes that give everything BUT defense.

imho the Barbarian or the paladin are the best option.

 

Paladin because he has a decent amount of damage, Barbarian King because I think the Lich might do a bit more damage but the BK has more life. Plus the Fas-rah-doo scream actually remove the fires in your immediate vicinity if you HAVE to.

I wouldn't recommend heading down there until you have decent armor and defense stats. The issue is that I've done a shitload of runs already and never get fucking better armor. I can go through 3 of the 4 castle areas now and survive with my skills but going into the lower area/catacombs still is too dangerous seeing how everything is doing 40+ damage and I don't do enough damage yet or have enough defense yet.

 

I think the flaw of the game is not giving you the option to buy the armor yourself for a premium over having to find the blueprints since they're so randomly spawned

It's weird because it'll play smooth for a while, but then get slowed down which throws off my attacks and three of my deaths have felt cheap because of the drop in framerate. I could try something out real quick, but my laptop has never been a graphical powerhouse. For example, the open environment segments of Half Life 2 lag a bit, and that's a game from 2004.
