My Most Anticipated Roguelike is HERE!

[@belowthestoneofficial1476]

I'm diggin' it Thanks for everyone being patient with our release too, we had some difficulties with the review process, but managed to go live around noon in the US. Appreciate all the support you guys threw our way during that time!

[@Konfide4043]

@belowthestone I bought it earlier. Excited to play soon. You should know, it was on 'Coming Soon' on steam, then today it disappeared from the list. I had to search it. It isn't on 'New Releases' either. Kinda upset me because way fewer people would get to see that it's out 😰

[@belowthestoneofficial1476]

@@Konfide4043 Ahhh, yeah. This is the troubles of the game dev world. lol. As long as the people who play it are happy, we're happy. As devs, we love the opportunity of seeing people like yourself and Olexa enjoy the game, it makes everything worth it.

[@GSFeareGaming]

It looks great! always great to see when Devs respond to videos!

[@mattiaswikman3954]

To all who is wondering why game is getting potentially delayed on release. There was an issue with some trailer or something, and it needed to be removed in order for it to be released. Onces it is reviewd and BTS team get thumps up they can upload the early acess version.

"Being bald sounds amazing" I just felt NL smile somewhere.

[@IXTryHardXI]

This felt like one of those mobile game adds where they play so bad it makes you want to get the game to do it right yourself

[@daglemj]

Screaming at the screen when hes getting into fights with no health and a pile of unused healing items in his inventory. Looking forward to more of this game though.

[@jasonhunter3429]

yea I was like, can he not eat those mushrooms? I thought they restored health

[@vladdangel]

For real, exact same sentiment. I want to see so much more but also want to see better game play. Also, the scared to mine thing in the mining game while saying "no, it's a foraging game" is less than ideal.

[@viperbrawlstars133]

When olexa says for the 1000 this is the rougelike of the year ☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@noahkaminsky8291]

An interesting story: for my undergrad in bio I helped with an ongoing research experiment in identifying mushrooms. For one its relatively not likely to be able to accurately identify a mushroom from their phenotype (looks) alone. As more is discovered about mushrooms more is realized that a lot of mushrooms A) look different from itself in different stages of its life and b) look like other mushroom species during different points of its lifecycle. Leading to genomic testing to be the best way. Anyways with the genomic DNA for your ribosomes, the proteins responsible for mRNA translation, are analyzed (using annoying ass PCR procedures that I had to develop myself) to figure out the family, genus, and species based on the different portions of the ribosome genome.

[@LemurG]

That is insanely cool, I love learning random science tidbits about fun things! I didn’t realize how mushrooms can look so similar or different to themselves and others depending on the stage of life they are in

[@tiredboi720]

Your telling me that I found the fucker that lowered my practical grade to a B because of the pcr procedure?

[@saleah4368]

"Olexa this is the third time youve shown your most anticipated game to the class"

[@kinnectar820]

Fun game, I'm excited to see what has changed. You almost realized my number 1 revelation from playing the demo, the torch is by far the best starting weapon.

[@samiralae9739]

starting the video with you saying that 2.2 speed is worse than 2.5 is just so typical 😂 I can't even get mad

[@OlexaYT]

?

[@samiralae9739]

​@@OlexaYT the kobold weapon had a 2.2 sec speed while the ladle had 2.5 😂 but the numbers looked confusing so i don't blame you

[@OlexaYT]

Yeah… that’s why I said the kobold is worse… I’m confused hahaha

[@samiralae9739]

​@@OlexaYTisn't 2.2 seconds faster than 2.5?

[@OlexaYT]

I guess it could be haha. I read it as like, number of attacks per second, not how long it takes to attack but that makes significantly more sense honestly…

[@bbittercoffee]

Actually went "nooo!" When the episode ended so I guess I'm hooked on this one!

[@daveking5750]

love how you abstain from cursing and bad words. Well done God bless!

[@seerai-42]

this roguelike was made for me, i frickin loved stardew valleys mines and would usually just explore them and never do any actual farming.

It was only on the screen for a second but I love that the flavor text for the Tin at 14:15 is a reference to History of the World I guess by Bill Wurtz.

@@nokstella5 Bro he gets like 5k views per video, who the fuck cares about clickbait.

[@TheGamerWhosBored]

@@nokstella5 Well i guess I'm a drone now, but a couple of noteworthy points are: 1. His content doesn't get the most traffic, especially for games like these that aren't the most popular/well-known 2. He probably wants to put these games out there, as he's a huge fan of roguelikes and some of these are really underrated 3. If the man has played these games/followed them since their inception, why the hell WOULDN'T he be excited to try them out again after so much time has passed?

If I am not mistaken weapon speed is usually faster the lower the number so the Kobold on a stick would be quicker then the Soup Ladle.

[@Treyzusaur]

Man. The way you run into enemies saying “I’m gonna die” and then run past them into more enemies has me dying inside. Don’t circle and put them on all sides of you, back out the way you came in and bottleneck them! Don’t let the greed control you, call the pod! Haha. Interested to see more though.

[@murutang]

If you like this one you could give Core Keeper a try. It's less rogue like and more valhiem/stardew. It has base building/farming with free exploration of diverse biomes and a boss hunting/gear crafting progression system. And the music slaps.

You should see mushroom picking in Poland. Here, people go to the forest and leave in a truck quickly assembled from wood because they take away a ton of mushrooms. And recently there has been drama because several new hybrid species have appeared and people don't know what to do with it.
