The Psykeeper Has Logged On (SNKRX)

SNKRX on Steam: store.steampow...
This came from my stream on June 18th, 2021. Catch it live every weekday here: / northernlion
SNKRX is a cool roguelite whose minimalist style betrays a surprising amount of depth and complexity. At first glance, it looks like a Snake clone with some roguelite elements over top of it, but it has a lot more than that going on. Check it out!

8:47 egg learning that he's been saving too much is where his whole SNKRX career blossomed. He cant be stopped anymore

[@buddy123hound]

50 bucks at 0.85% interest for 22 years would be $60.23

[@drvanon]

How the frick did he do that in his head that fast!?

[@noway2451]

@@drvanon you just estimate. 0.85 for22 years ~= 20% + a teensy bit of compound interest. so 61$

[@Temperans]

@@drvanon Its actually not a hard skill to learn. Basically simplify the numbers and think, "does this make sense?" In this case. 0.85*20 < 1*20. But the base will increase by a bit every time, so they are ~ the same. So $5 * 20% is ~$6. Look up fermi estimation. For examples of how to do it.

[@jackl8025]

they did the math

[@esoessify]

Nah, it would acutally still be 55$, the interest rate caps when at 25$

[@imnphil4474]

NL finally understanding the basics of tft and snkrx has me pogging.

[@eightskulls]

Vod or non-vod content. The banter of the egg is absolutely unmatched.

[@TheGreatRio]

Sneaker Egg in the morning? Don't mind if I do. Please keep the series going, NL, this may be my favorite series.

[@AClockworkWizard]

Love this TFT series.

[@EveloGrave]

Man I am genuinely envious. I've spent 10 hours trying to win on NG+2 still haven't done so. Congratz on the win! This is inspiration that I can get that victory.

[@Dindonmasker]

If i could do it you can do it!! I'm struggling with ng+3 rn.

[@TheMrTangamandapio]

i'm on NG+5 if you find yourself dying early, i suggest buying party members, no matter the cost or apparent synergy, as long as they deal damage. to me, wave 6 killed me consistently until i started doing that. then, midgame, if you can find yourself with a mercenary synergy (specially merchant) you're basically good to go, build your snake as you please. I have beaten it easily with mercenary, and have died (due to my own mistakes) in wave 24 without it. keep at it!!

[@zhorky]

I'm also on NG+2 and spent 10 hours by now, but I keep on grinding

[@EveloGrave]

@@TheMrTangamandapio Great intel thank you for the tips!

[@assiaisindegyara4905]

just use warriors there nuts. i havent tried ng+2 yet. but i was getting destroyed by base game. then tried a warrior build and crushed it. littterally crushed it, it wasnt even close. and then ng +1 was just as easy.6 warriors, a priest and the right the right items. namely, warriors getting hit increases defence of party and time increases defence of warriors. it turns into your attacks dont matter, just wait a little bit and then ram the enemies.

[@thelarchmage]

Running into the final boss and still winning illustrates how far NL has come

[@michaelhemmelgarn2987]

My man actually gave me a heart attack at the end there

[@thepope98]

A build that isn’t based around rogues? What? You can do that?

[@tempestSH]

i think SNKRX is the perfect intro to auto-chess mechanics because it's fairly simple, but most importantly, it's not pvp. It's really hard to learn not just how to play a specific auto-chess game, but the entire genre, when you're up against people who have like 300 hours in TFT

[@fahlgorithm]

that crash on the final boss had me sweating

[@litapd311]

i lost all my psy the other day. imagine my joy seeing this in my feed!

[@ElyskeTheDonut]

Big fan of NL almost throwing his entire run against the last boss within a second of it spawning

[@DEMillerEarl]

This game is such a perfect Mashup of Banter engine plus dope as hell mechanics.

[@john_john_john]

25:25 it's also open source, which is fantastic.

"We're not doing AoEs." Screen is full of purple AoEs.

[@bladerforlife14]

I love that you spent so much time to get the fairy just to frickin chuck it into the final boss lmao

[@jaxwarp8373]

Waking up to some hot coffee and Snkrx. A perfect morning

[@xXxP4nc4k3sxXx]

Hey NL, the mouse control where the snake follows the cursor is OP for maneuverability. It does take a couple runs to get used to, but I promise its Pog also: love the content man, this game, and others, keep it up!

[@BacchusGames]

Hearing the egg talk about tft brings a special joy to me that not much else can. I absolutely adore that game and I'm glad he seems to at least be having some fun learning it.

[@HaleFast]

Yo dude! I love that you're loving this game. I'm loving watching it and I wanted you to know I support you creating more content that YOU enjoy.

[@Chadworthy_]

25:37 Hearing him say SNKRX has taught him the mechanics of an auto battler, which opens the door to what he can play in the future.... I was like "SAP???" and looked up the first video in his SAP playlist which is four months after this video, so YEAH I would say this was a bit of a premonition.

[@Helldhaz]

Came to say the same!

[@brandonbedore1157]

Flah-gell-ant is my favorite mispronunciation. Love the snake bby

[@iHeartCoolStuff]

Yeah pretty sure it's supposed to sound similar to flatulence

[@ryandarshen1846]

commenting to pog up the algorithm and analytics

[@ryandarshen1846]

also correct me if I'm wrong but there's no downside to getting upgrades to the cleric after 25 gold right? Cause it sells for the same amount

[@BAGELMENSK]

Psykeeper, cleric, priest and warriors is so great when you get increase defenses on warrior hit. That's how I won my second time.

[@Ami-Wishes]

I haven't seen this game, do they actually have Kubbi's music for the OST? If so, that's rad.

[@simondiehm]

Yes the Ember album

[@oakleyraverty1030]

Missed opportunity for Psykeeper has pogged on

[@rompevuevitos222]

The main difficulty of a warrior run is learning when to not run into enemies, but usually you just headbutt everything and "tis but a flesh wound"

[@noimnotagorilla]

The bit about going to the Credit Union in Truro hit home, I grew up in NS and we really had to drive several hours out of town to go anywhere

[@freedominart11]

I love that the dev for this game is still updating it too! Keeps it fresh!

[@rooster4011]

if you have full psykers in a run you literally can't lose if you drive half-decently, they're so good

[@stuffyworld10]

Excited to see you play the new update, I'm pretty into it. Item level ups are pretty POG

[@Waghabond]

Told you psychino vagrant psyker synergy is the best thing in the game

[@furtado704]

AA BB CC is indeed a sad rhyming scheme...I'm quite fond of chiasmic or ring structures though.

[@TripleGia]

We stan the Snek RX pseudo-series

[@iHeartCoolStuff]

You sell for 100% of what you pay for. So there is no reason not to take the cleric and sell it later. You lose no money.

[@Temperans]

You do lose money if they level up. A level 2 cleric sells for 1 less than 3 level 1 clerics. Whether that matters is to personal opinion.

[@iHeartCoolStuff]

@@Temperans thats true

How is he gettin more than 7 units ?

[@tobyvision]

Each level of New Game+ gives you one more unit slot.

[@ViIvaNunner]

did they like recently make the game significantly harder because if not either im just really bad or nl is the best gamer in the world i havent seen a ton of the good items and enemies just feel more beefy and feel like they do more damage, idk what it is

[@tobyvision]

The game gets updated weekly right now. I personally think the items recently got much weaker and farming gold became pretty much a necessity.

[@blakebatchelor1739]

I'm begging you to play some TFT on camera even it's just a single bespoke video

[@Nerpitiwpitiw]

25 is the max.. wth.

[@henrymccoy2306]

The fairy is deceptively bad imo. From what I can tell the heal is random so it doesn't stop you from losing units and that's what I get healers for. You could have aunit at 5% life and unit at 95% life and it's a 50/50 the fairy just ignores the one nearly dead. Still think it was right play in this run for that sweet +15% damage

20:54 NL, I love your content man, but you *gotta* reevaluate this inhalation voice. I feel like this is the weirdest version of a Dunning-Krueger-esque example I've run into.. I don't know a nice way to say it doesn't work. It's not another voice, it's just kind of a desperate attempt to do one where it only sounds exactly like what it is, and the hard repetition of it is.. bordering tolerable. I know you think it's funny when your friend does it but.. he can do it lol. Just trying to be like the one friend who takes you aside and lets you know maybe it's time to just start shaving it all off when it's thinning so bad it's kind of embarrassing but nobody wants to say anything. Idk man, do your thing, I'm just a lone comment in the dark trying in what I'm sure will be seen as a very tilting way to help, but I really am.
