Tangledeep - Review @ GWW

by Hiddenx, 19:20

GWW has reviewed the Rogue-like Tangledeep:

Tangledeep Review - GWW

Every once in a while a game will come out of nowhere and surprise me with its deep mechanics, addicting gameplay, and unique art style. Tangledeep came as a surprise but it’s a game I couldn’t have been happier that I accidentally stumbled across this. Tangledeep is a  rogue-like RPG with randomly generated levels that are hard to get into due to all the different mechanics the game throws at you. But once you get the hang of its mechanics and its world you will not want to step away from Tangledeep.

After a frustrating couple of hours and multiple failed attempts, I was ready to give up on Tangledeep. I am the type of player that likes action RPGs so I decided to give Tangledeep another try. This time around I took my time studying the menus, took my time studying the characters and was cautious with the decisions I was making. I was taking my time reading the conversations I was having with the NPCs at the beginning of each run. I realized I was playing Tangledeep all wrong. I was trying to play the game more like a slasher than a turn-based RPG roguelike and that’s where I went wrong. Tangledeep requires you to be methodical, it requires you to calculate every move and to think ahead of time. It reminded me of a lot of chess where every move counts. The more I progressed the more confident I grew where now I knew how to take care of business when the going got hard.

[...]

Tangledeep is a frustrating yet rewarding experience that I cannot recommend enough for people that want a deep RPG roguelike game. Once you get past the steep learning curve you will find one of the best RPG games I have played in quite some time and this is a game that no RPG fan should sleep on. Starring Tangleep may seem like a daunting task but it’s a task that if you start it will be hard to put down.

Tangledeep - Leaves Early Access

by Hiddenx, 20:16

Version 1.0 of Tangledeep is now available on Steam:

Tangledeep v1.0 is officially available!

Greetings adventurers! We're so proud to announce that Tangledeep is officially OUT of Early Access and build b100 is now available! After two years of development we could not be more proud of the game. Thanks to all the wonderful Early Access feedback we've fixed tons of bugs, added features, tuned the difficulty, and greatly polished the game overall.

The soundtrack is now complete, including the wonderful compositions by Hiroki Kikuta (Secret of Mana), Grant Kirkhope (Goldeneye, Banjo Kazooie) and Norihiko Hibino (Metal Gear Solid 3) and the original 'realistic' versions.

Since last week's post, we've also added a couple fun new features such as the gold-generating Food Cart in Riverstone Grove (once you have at least one mature tree), and a new *hidden boss* from another dimension. The game's story is finished as well (just sliiightly important!)

Thank you so much to everyone who has played the game and supported it so far, and we can't wait to show you what's in store for the rest of 2018!

Tangledeep

Tangledeep combines the 16-bit graphics and polish of classic SNES-era RPGs with elements from roguelikes and dungeon crawlers to create a magical experience for players of all skill levels.

Experience rich, tactical, turn-based gameplay as you explore a sprawling dungeon that’s different each time you play. Tangledeep features a customizable job system and hundreds of collectible items that allow you to approach each playthrough in a totally new way!

The Setting

For hundreds of years, people have lived in the safety of underground settlements and villages – where the only route to the surface is “Tangledeep,” a mysterious and ever-changing labyrinth. With memories of the surface world long forgotten, you set out for the labyrinth to discover what lies above. With each floor – full of magical beasts, ancient automatons, bizarre environments and hybrid biomes – the mystery grows ever deeper…

Key Features

  • Experience finely-tuned, procedurally-generated and handcrafted gameplay as you fight challenging monsters, complete quests, and collect rare items.
  • Master deep, tactical turn-based combat across 12 unique jobs with over 100 skills.
  • Choose between three game modes – including Adventure Mode, which removes the pain of permadeath.
  • Share some of your progress between characters by using the banking system, planting magic trees, or capturing and raising monsters in town.
  • Explore ITEM DREAMS, randomized mini-dungeons where anything goes, and power up your gear!
  • Take in the scenery – comprised of beautiful 16-bit graphics and carefully handcrafted maps!
  • Relax to a beautiful soundtrack composed by award-winning composer Andrew Aversa – joined by Hiroki Kikuta (Secret of Mana), Grant Kirkhope (GoldenEye 007, Civilization: Beyond Earth), and Norihiko Hibino (Metal Gear Solid 3, Bayonetta)

Multiple Platforms and Control Methods
