Hi Splattercat, I'm the lead dev for Exanima. Big fan of your channel, always checking it out to see what cool indies are coming out. Glad to see you're enjoying Exanima. If you ever feel like playing it on stream I'd love to jump in chat and answer any questions or just hang out. Cheers.

This is one of the most frustrating and rewarding games I have ever played. If you decide to try it, prepare for a lot of pain in learning the movement/combat. That being said, slowly mastering the system feels like you are actually learning swordplay, and landing a perfectly aimed strike to the head and watching your opponent crumple is one of the single most satisfying things in all of gaming.

A few corrections: 7:43 - there are maps you can find, but they act like IRL maps. There are also compasses that help with its use. 31:11 - the game only makes check point saves at the first locked door, and at the start of each floor up until the end of level 3. This incident is actually gaining power for your Thaumaturgy, which I’m pretty sure you use to enhance a spell with. The orbs are for improving you weapons and armor. The blue juice is for healing.

@isaiahjohn9642 It will vary per person, and I should say that I'm not one of the players that knows every cool combat move like grappling or shield bashing. I would say it took me a week or two to understand the mechanics, but that was back when this first came out with no guides on it. If I were you. I'd look up basic movement and combat vids where people explain how to move your cursor and swing your weapon. There is also an arena mode that is a fantastic tool to help you get better at combat. It is also really fun on its own. If you're working at it, it shouldn't take you too long to get the basics down.

With that chest you can fit multiple small weapons(short swords, small maces, daggers), shoes, in case you switch from boots to greaves, you don’t run around barefoot, I’ve been hit in exclusively the foot without shoes on in the game too many times.

I picked this up about a day or two before you uploaded this and I absolutely love it. It is by far the best kind of games put into one. The only thing I think I would like added is some more color, it's hard to see some things. Changing the color of the sim reticule would be nice to, like making it green so the red doesn't blend in to the scene, I can't see the red as well. And one day, multiplayer ❤ it's so good, imagine an open world with horses that were also procedural animation with physics. So good.

The blue orb can be used to upgrade the condition of an item (armor, weapons, clothing). So if you got a 'crudely made sword in fairly worn condition', it can turn it into a 'crudely made sword in fairly good condition'. However, it can't make a 'crudely made sword' into a 'well made sword'. It's the glowing blue jars that heal you.

You've probably already discovered this but beware of hammers. Even a big wooden mallet in the lowest rank can kill someone outright with the right swing. I've been domed by hammers so many times, I have PTSD when facing off against one. They're nasty because they can deal heavy damage through armor so even in later play a sledge is a deadly threat. I'd rather face a sword any day. Sure, hammers don't deal red damage as often, but when they do it's a costly mistake.

You and I have the same taste in games, same feelings about dwarves, and about the same time played in Battle Brothers. Picked Examina up back in like 2015 or something when it was pretty unfinished and it was pretty fun for a few hours, guess it's time for another look.

​@@GameTimeWhyYes. Sui Generis is the goal they are pursuing on making eventually. I would severely temper my expectations however. Exanima has been in development since around 2015. They've only just reached version 0.9 and there's no set timeline for a 1.0 release. Let alone a much larger open world RPG based on this. Yes, Exanima is essentially providing a ton of the needed assets for the follow-up but at the pace they're going, I think I might not even live to see that game released.

This was the first game I ever bought on steam when I got this simple dell laptop that was not made for gaming. I could only play this on the lowest possible settings to get it to work. For so long I walked through this game without the ability to see shadows and the flicker of the fire. Loved every frustrating minute 😊

I always pull doors towards me when opening them. Because if there's something scary, you can slam the door in their face. Also, sometimes you'll push the door open and there's someone hiding behind it, so you walk forward and get stabbed in the back. lol

This is a truly unique game for me. The dungeon crawling and the arena modes are fun for the most part. Although biggest pet peeve with this game are the puzzles. Towards the end of the "levels" or floors of the dungeon there are these puzzles you need to solve, some of them are intuitive, most of them are lethal and some of them are exceptionally boring. I remember spending an entire hour without fighting anything just trying to run through a gate before it closes and that was the last time i played it. I hope they changed things around a bit, it would be fun to go back to it and experience the game again.

Exanima is a prequel/test game being made in parallel with the actual game, which is called Sui Generis. They are testing combat and spells and creatures in Exanima, which is it's own small scale game, but Sui Generis will be like what you're describing: a full blown open world RPG to explore with tons of diversity. It's going to be amazing. There's some videos out on it if you wanna get an idea.
