comments for The Depths of Xia'phas
sort: go back
controls need to be fixed: "hold control to harvest" + "wasd to move" = ctrl+w being pressed and tab closes
developer response: Fixed! Thanks for the post o7
If you want to go heavier into the 'incremental' side of things, maybe item multipliers in the form of craftable items would help? It can be a bit grindy at times. Great game though!
developer response: Love this idea! I definitely want to ease up on the grind! Thanks for playing and leaving feedback ☺️
You can left click instead of use ctrl.
Using a keyboard button WOULD be easier, but it'll have to be something that's not ctrl.
developer response: I set it to V for now, I'll be sure to add re-binding in a future patch!
Saving doesn't seem to work?
developer response: ugh, I tried to fix the save bug that plagues itch.io games and it seems I've made it worse. I'll get a fix in ASAP, thank you for your report!
this should be fixed now!
STOP CLOSING THE TAB
developer response: This is now fixed, thanks for the post!
It's a nice game, but it is really more of an explorer/adventure game than an incremental game
developer response: I've done a lot of research on incrementals after releasing this and I absolutely agree! will be adding more incremental features down the road. thanks for the comment!
I played when it first came out and just tried to play again with all the updates, which are great!
Unfortunately, the game won't save my progress and rarely gets stuck loading. The first two times, it got stuck on the loading screen as I left the base for the first time. The third time it got stuck I was very near the end of the game (I assume) and when I reloaded the page there was no save.
I'll definitely play again in the future. Just don't really have the energy to go through it all again right now. But I did enjoy it before all that
developer response: sorry for the issue and thank you for the report! will get fixed ASAP! this should be fixed now!
The new update wiped my save, so imma just factor that into my own lore headcannon and say that the previous delver was me from the previous iteration of this game.
developer response: it was you all along! i love it!!
the loading bug is fixed! everything should be playable now, thank you for all your patience and sorry for all the issues! drop a message in the Discord if you'd like to tell me what we can do better!
The save bug is fixed, thank you all for your reports!
developer response: there does appear to still be some occasional load issue that I'm working to correct.
such a caring gamedev that responds to almost every comment about bugs and other frustrations
developer response: I love making games and I want everyone to have an enjoyable experience! All feedback is appreciated and even if it doesn't make it into this game, I try really hard to not make the same mistakes twice!
is the name a tragedeigh
save gone ;(
developer response: Noooo :( I'm so sorry that's happening, I'll try to find a solution before I patch again >< otherwise, I'll start only patching for major releases so I can avoid that in the future...thanks for playing and sorry again!
nooo my save got reset
developer response: it seems like there's some year-old itch.io behavior with it changing the file location every time a new build gets posted, which means files are "gone" -.- gonna dig into it and see if I can figure out any alternatives because this really sucks I'm so sorry!!
@unicodes uh... the button was rebound so you no longer have to use ctrl. Of course your browser's default shortcuts aren't going to stop working.
Fun game. Some of the endgame grinding might not be for me though the concept was well done especially in a short time. Maybe you could expand on it and add more obstacles like enemies/traps that will reduce your time or extra resource multipliers. Also 4444
developer response: I love the idea of enemies and traps! we actually had plans for a few different things but we couldn't get it done in time...next version!!
and there'll be a way to increase the amount of drops you get, too! thanks for playing 💖
I am having extreme problems Whenever i harvested, it did the thingy then i couldn't move for like a solid minute
developer response: this is fixed now, thank you so much!
Ichor badge isn't worth AT ALL at the moment, but other than that lil complaint, very fun little game.
developer response: Appreciate the feedback! Got an idea to make it more worthwhile (in addition to its 'other' use), stayed tuned! And thanks for playing!
please inform me as to where i'm supposed to go
developer response: yeah the level design definitely needs some work! I'd say if you need some direction, start off going up and to the left!
i pressed ctrl to harvest and w to move
it closed the tab
developer response: Fixed thank you!!
