What you are noticing is the fact that Befriended pets don't draw aggro the way other pets do. The Moustache, slime, wyrmling, Greater Fungi, and...
My favorite 4x game, by far, is Stars! I'm also very happy with Space Empires - it's grown a ton in the last 20 years that I've been playing it.
If anyone is signed up with Games2Gether, please PM me. I am setting up a project which uses a similar "community involvement" model, and I'd...
There are only three combinations I ever want: Bolts, Thrown Weapons, or Crafting. Here's how I remember the sequences: Bolts - Top rune looks...
I lost my character last night to an arctic debuff which caught me by surprise. That means I have no screenshots to share, but I thought the story...
Yes, I would be remiss if I didn't pimp my own indie game effort Sun Stones. It's free, but if you love it you can pay for the second half of the...
Actually, I found that focusing on :block: made :armor_asorb: pretty unimportant. Since a blocked hit reduces normal damage by 75%, 10 or 15...

I totally agree that Killer Vegan is one of the most powerful skill trees in the game. What makes it balanced is not any mechanical drawback -...
Here's a thought about Vampirism - why not just let it regen health normally? I mean, not being able to eat ANY food might be enough of a penalty...
Just mentioned this in another thread - but I thought it bore repeating. I *love* the more useful low-level crafting recipes. Thief Gloves at...
I think 1.10 has actually given crafting a big boost - by simply making some good utility items available at low levels. For example - allowing...
Woot! I think I'll make that change locally now, just to experience it ASAP.
I published a game a bit over a month back that I developed using Ansca's Corona. It's pretty awesome - just lua with OpenGL, built to export to...
I've just finished my play-through with a were-diggle character. This is something I've been trying to do for a while now, and I finally sat...
