THE GAUNTLET: Hermit and Pig battle testing opportunity Aug 22-Sep 5
[p]Hiya![/p][p]
We've been focusing intensely on battles. So much so that we're ready for you to playtest (if you want!) what we're calling THE GUANTLET. This is primarily a testing environment for us, but for you it’s a roguelike-ish, arcade-y, self-contained “game” that focuses on battles.
THE GAUNTLET will run August 22-September 5. To participate you'll just need to use this form to sign up, and then we'll email you a game link on the 22nd.
You can play through THE GAUNTLET as many times as you’d like between August 22 - September 5. All participants will receive a credit in the game, a digital playtester badge (THE GAUNTLET edition), and have the chance to win PRIZES! Prizes include:[/p]
So what will actually happen in THE GAUNTLET? You’ll progress through randomized rooms, fighting three battles in each one, and then visit a hub where you can get an upgrade and some other goodies. You'll progress like this through different rooms until you reach the very end (and hopefully want to run it again and again). Here's a quick look at one of these hubs (which also gives you a sneak peak at how we're using truffles as currency in the game!): [/p][p]![]()
You’ll get to experience about 90-95% of everything that Hermit and Pig has to offer battle-wise, including a wide range of enemies, items and trinkets, upgrades, and our brand new special mini-games.[/p][p]![]()
