This has been such a depressing train wreck to watch from the outside.

#gamedevs How often have you bought something on @itch.io just to realize afterward that the thing you wanted had a higher pay barrier and you only got the lesser tier things?

And the flipside of this: I have so much stuff in my code that I don't remember if I still need it, because I removed or redesigned so many features by now.

Life Altered - Ascension System + July 2025 Progress Report - Steam News Sometimes there are ideas in a game that must subsequently change all other games of the genre in the same direction. Like cross-hairs in shooters (didn't exist in Wolfenstein 3D or the original Doom)...

I'll share some thoughts on Ascension in roguelike games this #TurnBasedThursday

Why hasn't Hades ascension system not been widely copied yet?

Thank you for reading it! And I agree, I didn't eliminate consequence. I suppose I merely weakened it a bit.
