FYI, I actually made good use of Bullet Time (once).
Made a deck of only green cards, 2 Bullet Time, and Snecko artifact (+2card draw, randomise cost). Included more draw options (that I could only use before bullet time, if chance allowed it). But I was consistently playing 8+ cards per turn.
Run was going great, kinda EZ tbh. But I made the noob mistake of including too many extra cards and killed the consistency 
.
This game is officially great. I just finished a run where I manage to make a Dropkick infinite combo, only to die against a thorns enemy. The run before that, I got Corruption with the relic that added a card to my hand whenever a card is exhausted. Each turn was a ridiculous optimization puzzle with 10+ cards.
Agreed. I’ve played about 80 hours and still I keep finding new combinations of cards and relics, learning better ways to optimize turn sequencing, and finding more reasons to hate Time Eater.
Also I still have yet to beat the game with the Silent 
I picked up the game after all the buzz in this topic and have sunk about 12h into it this week. My first win was a the Silent with a poison build that defeated Time Eater. Which I was able to repeat a second time not long after. I am still trying to figure out what other builds work the silent, what have other people seen success with?
For the iron clad my first win was using power through / evolve as a draw engine and than I have now beaten the game with an armor build that used power through / evolve as a draw engine with flame barrier and uppercut for most of the damage. I didn’t get a body slam to the third level. I had a couple close strength based runs, and finally this morning had one go the distance with an insane 13 card deck ( limit break, spot weakness, clash, double tap, rampage, heavy blade, 3x iron wave ) clash really shines when you can make sure to drop all your defends and pick up iron wave instead.
So far with Silent I feel like there is a range of successful archetypes that can sometimes be nicely combined:
Passive poison: Getting really good defensive abilities and use the inevitability of Noxious Fumes to eventually win the game
More combo-y poison: Using stuff like Bouncing Flask, Corpse Explosion to do massive amounts of damage relatively quickly
Shiv themed: There are a lot of ways to get a lot of shivs, and a lot of ways to benefit from having a lot of shivs. Anything that boosts your strength or gives you a small benefit every time you play a card works great with shivs.
Bullet time builds: Have a lot of draw and use the power of bullet time to play a bunch of cards in one turn.
I think Bullet Time is fairly unreliable though my very first victory was with a Bullet Time deck so I am fond of the card.
Additionally, there are some other archetypes that get more support once you unlock key cards for them.
I might not have unlocked the correct shiv cards yet. While I can get lots of shivs I don’t feel like I can leverage it well.
I just completed my highest-scoring run yet (840) with Corruption and 5 Feel No Pain. I had two Impervious and two Body Slam with a bunch of draw and deck manipulation. During the earlier part of the run, I maximized Feed and ended up with 173 max HP.
@Vargar Shiv synergy definitely depends on some of the cards you unlock.
I just wanted to post here and say @SneakySly that the game is great, I suck horribly and can’t usually get far into the second climb, but I have fun every time. I got my hardcore roguelike friend into this and he has already cleared the game 8 times in 2 days or so. Great work!
First thing I saw when I opened the steam store. Curious of the decision to boost now rather than when third character is released?
We didn’t boost. It was all organic exposure. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The following on Twitch seems to be taking off, with multiple consistent 1k+ streamers playing it right now. Yesterday I think the game peaked at around 25k viewers! Hopefully the increased exposure is translating into more sales. 
Me needs more content
…will complete achievements meanwhile, and bringing new converts over. Excellent work!!
Thanks Forum. I’m addicted now, too.
@SneakySly I don’t own or play the game but I was poking around on STEAM and it was listed as a top seller in strategy I believe. I don’t know what that means in terms of money but that’s pretty cool.
Congratulations
So my girlfriend is obsessed with this game and TIL it was made by top Netrunner players. Mind = Blown.
Edit: Also thanks for releasing it for Linux!
I heard a rumor on the Nintendo Switch reddit that there was some interest in a Switch port, but they didn’t seem to offer much evidence. I’ve been wanting to play it, but I’d much prefer to have a portable copy.
Any comment?
There’s a tweet about it, however it says “after Early Access”. That might be a long time away.
Be patient. There are still like twenty or thirty Steam users without a copy.
Two friends of mine are fans. Ah, I should have tried it before, I’d be so hype now !
