very buggy unfortunately... I'm going to have to sit it out until they care to fix their game.

This is why if you're not going to do early access, you need to run a beta test

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 hours ago

Early access is the beta test?

I wanted to have a look at some gameplay and went to the Steam store. Both trailer have no gameplay footage, just animations and such. I hate such trailers, its such a waste of time and want make me ignore the game... https://store.steampowered.com/app/686060/Mewgenics/

I like some of the trailer/animation stuff, but you're totally right that practically zero gameplay footage is a serious oversight.

Had the same issue, but even the gameplay trailer I found was not helpful to understand the pull, idea or appeal. I'm not saying the game isn't good or worth it, but in past games the basic gameplay loop idea was clearer. Is this some isometric turn based battle game?

[–] traxex@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 27 minutes ago

Absolutely. Scrolled through all the images and had zero idea what the game even was. Thought it was a pet cat simulator or something.

It's already out?

I actually want to buy it. Developer is actually a good guy. Many years making great videogames and neven enshitifying.

Also I think it will heal me actually buying a game I thought 10 years ago that would never see the light of day.

[–] master94ga@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

I hope they release this on gog too

[–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Lol what the actual fuck is this game. I'm interested, but also slightly disturbed 😂

[–] Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Its from the guy who also made super meat boy and the binding of isaac so... yeah, that tracks

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Don't sanitize my boy Edmund! He made games called Cunt, Dead Baby Dressup! and suteF

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 7 points 10 hours ago

It’s a turn based roguelike with tactical grid combat and cats.

[–] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not surprised, with those trailers on steam - it looks great! Anyone here played it? I'm tempted, but I've got a long queue.

[–] nfreak@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 hours ago

I sunk a couple hours into it today, pretty good stuff so far, though strategy games aren't usually my forte so I'm just full sending cats out at random lmao

It's unmistakably an Edmund game, that's for sure.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 20 points 15 hours ago

TIL Mewgenics released.

Hell yeah!

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Bought, didn't know it was out!

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 9 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Super cool. Hopefully they offer a great bonus for the rest of the team that worked on this.
