Finally, the pre-release game is up. As before, you can get it by just running the game and it will download into the folder. Then just replace the files. As I've already explained, the full release will come a bit later following bug fixing and whatever else should be done. I apologize for getting it out on basically the last day of the time frame I gave.  Honestly, I way undershot the amount of time it was gonna take to get the game to this point. With that, I may have to put out this month's release on the 6th or 7th, so again I apologize.

So, notes on the game. I've added a few new items to look for on previous stages as well as the new stage. All the new animations however, are on the new stage. Also, you can pick up the bombs in the same way you would mount an opponent, except you shouldn't need an item for it. If the third hatch is closed, just beat the first stage.

Also, a big part of the reason I'm just getting this out now is because I've had a bit of trouble compiling the game, as it's gotten a bit bigger than anticipated. That being the case, I'm currently unable to bundle flash in with the file, so until I work around it, you'll need to have flash on your computer. I don't think it's force blocked on desktop anymore, but let me know if I'm mistaken.

Well, I'll let you all get to it. Of course, if you find anything that needs my attention, please let me know.


Edit: Okay, so I managed to rectify the "no flash" problem. Most of you who were having trouble should now be able to run it. If you're somehow still having trouble, be sure to let me know.

On a further note, I rectified some bugs, and rebalanced some things. For example, the ice ring costs less, and the fire ring no longer works on the bomb enemies on stage 3(it actually wasn't supposed to, to begin with). You also level a bit slower.


Also, here's a list of the items in the game old and new:

Old:

Fire Ring

Ice Ring

Mark of Succubus

Artifact of Power

Speed Anklet

Sleep Ring

Sweet Dream Choker

Mount Skill

Heavy Attack Skill

Dash Skill

New:

Lucky Cat Ring

Elec Ring

Fire Badge

Ice Badge

 Elec Badge

Elemental Module

Strange Glyph


The Lucky Cat Ring will Increase the drop rate of all items, EXCEPT Lucky Cat Ring.


Finally, I know that some of you are unaware of the conditions surrounding DOS. For those who are, please read this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/loyalty-reward-5-37707815  

Run the PT again, and the newest batch of files should download. Should be file version 0.9.5.

what tier do we have to be at for DOS?

Shatter Realm

I assume we'll be getting the file for DOS sometime soon? Cause i've been a 10$ tier for quite awhile, i at least hope that would mean there's a file update ^^;

Duke Holliday

Keep up the good work! Hopefully I can start receiving updated files like these whenever you see fit. :)

KingJeter

Odds are we'll probably get the DOS file with the other files for this month.

Okay, a couple bug reports: On Stage 1 sometimes I got teleported to an area that was one giant infinitely looping room in all directions. The other bug I encountered is that if you're at 1HP or 0HP (basically where you're out of HP but managed to get up before someone could get the KO) and you try to drain an enemy, the game won't let you. Like, you can get into the pose, but the game won't accept the input for the action to start. I believe this is because being out of HP is supposed to have it ignore inputs so enemies can properly KO you. Anyways, quick review, it takes WAY too long to get to a save. I played for a couple hours. I never made it back to save, only looped rooms constantly. The only exception was for Stage 3 where I made it to the boss (but only after so many loops that I went from level 17 to level 100, no exaggeration). Speaking of the boss, I think there should be one goblin type enemy in that room (would swap a drone for it). It is very easy to get overwhelmed due to the two drones being able to outspeed you (in terms of attack speed not movement) and plinking away with fireballs only takes you so far (plus you run the risk of despawning the enemies). Due to how long it took I basically circling the drain by the time I got there,. And you need to be able to run in and "kill" the bomb lord before he drops the bomblets (which also adds to the overwhelming part) forcing you to hope a fireball oneshots them (weirdly it did during the loops, but not during the boss) but you're usually just forced to despawn everything and go again. And then losing kicks you back to the save/stage select room (while not keeping any of your progress). Going back down to level 17 again was disheartening as fuck. Also let me be clear on the looping through rooms bit. I was not taking long to clear rooms either. That's not the problem here. The problem is in just how many rooms (or floors or levels or whatever) you have to clear of a given stage before you finally get back to the save room. I think things are great that aside. New animations were good, and some powerups I had found (but don't get to keep because of the aforementioned loss) were good (though I dunno if they were new or not).

Emily

YAY!!! I got the infinitely looping room after beating the third stage. and the floor on stage three bothers my eyes a bit.

Freeko Suave

I can not seem to run the new update at all, either. Nothing happens with the pirate tripper. I suspect I have overlooked something?>

FireSpin

having the same problem

Prototype3

Apparently the the flash bundle with the exe isn’t implemented. So you got to use flash on your computer is what bomb said I think

FireSpin

where can we get flash if uninstalled? can't find a download.

Ion

i was wondering the same thing. I've only heard of DOS but I never got any files regarding it nor this update.

Nameless

Bomb has already explained this, so I’ll do it for them. It’s a one-time loyalty reward game that is only given to everyone at a certain time. That time has already long past, like around two years ago? If you guys were there with the loyalty reward, you would have gotten it. Sadly, I’m one of those people who sub just after it’s release. Don’t worry, the full release is coming soon, so you guys don’t have to wait much longer.

Kingcrimson

Ah, okay I think its the only loyalty reward I've missed. Unfortunate

Nameless

Don’t know, it’s already close to full release. So I don’t think it would be part of the files. More like, be put on his other website to be sold.

Nameless

Don’t think there is any download, unless I’m blind. Flash has shutdown and people who still have the flash program installed can still play certain flash games. I don’t really know much since I left it in my computer without really caring. Bomb did mention about the issue, so I don’t think it will take long until it is fixed.

Ion

oh ok i became patron like a little too late for that admittedly thanks for the heads up.

UnluckyEddie

PT still hangs for me, this is running on a laptop, does your WAN IP have anything to do with the security check?

Orthrus

In the conveyer belts stage where we have 30 secs to reach the end, it is still possible to force your way through even after timer ends and it start moving again(provided you have speed anklet). Not sure if it was intended to be possible to do so, but I’m glad it is. Otherwise, it’s gonna be a hassle to finish that kind of rooms.

Freeko Suave

So, to give more context, the previous version of DOS runs just fine for me. I run the pirate tripper which downloads the new version of DOS. The new version of DOS does nothing when I run the pirate tripper. Since the older version of DOS runs properly(ish), I am not sure why that affects the new version from not properly running. All I can do is say what I know, and hopefully someone who knows more about this sort of thing is able to figure it out.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Make sure you don't have any failed processes running in the background, also double check that version number. Should be 0.9.5.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Has your comp changed significantly since you got the game? If so, I can send you another file.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Thanks for feedback Orthrus. That's fine. There should definitely be a perk to having the speed anklet at that point.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Thanks for feedback Deekin. The excess loops might have been due to the earlier compiling problems I've had. I've also corrected some other things you've mentioned. Recount your experience when you're able.

Matthias Zimmermann

is anybody else getting an 404 error at the link in the post?

Mann-Chan

There's a boss battle BGM for the game, leads me to be curious if there's some crazy boss battle at the end of stage 3, and if we get some saucy animations for that enemy too.

Icarnix

The link in Bomb's loyalty reward post does not work. Any way to work around it? I am looking forward to this.

Kal

Wait, how do you download this? The link in the loyalty reward post is a 404.

Deekin

Okay, updated and have now dropped another couple hours on it. Found a maybe bug. If you get caught in a bomb's explosion and that explosion knocks you to 0 HP, you become locked in an unable to get back up state. Other times when you get knocked to 0, you can eventually get back up if no enemies are around to finish you off. But the explosion for some reason did not allow it. Healing while you're down doesn't help either. Back on the excessive loops topic, I've went and recompleted stage 1 and stage 2, they were fine. Only thing of note to point out there is in stage 2 if you get the floor where there's a room that locks you in and forces you to fight the fishmen, it takes an inordinately large amount of kills before it finally lets you go. I dunno if it's like 50, or 100, or what. But it definitely needs to be toned down. I had actually thought the game was stuck at first until it arbitrarily let me go all of a sudden. That aside also in stage 2, in the room where you have to collect water wheels I found a button on the floor that told me a door opened somewhere, but I never found such a door. I went along all the walls and even checked each tunnel as I shut the water off and nothing. Not sure what was supposed to be going on there. I did not get to the stage 3 boss this time around, due to the aforementioned explosion thing hardlocking me in place. Will have to take a look another time. I can at least say that leveling was definitely slower. In spite of spending roughly the same amount of time as my previous play session, I only was in the mid to late 30s in level (IIRC 36 or 37) instead of level 100.

Nameless

That’s because the giveaway has already long past. I don’t remember, but there is another post explaining a time limit to DOS’s giveaway which is one week, I think? So you can’t get it anymore. You’ll have to wait for the release of the full game, which isn’t long.

Nameless

You’ll have to wait for the full game. The link inside the one Bomb provided has already long expired. Like, around two years ago. The full release isn’t far though compare to two years ago. (I had to wait that long since I sub right after its release.)

Nameless

Wait for the full release. The only way to download this is if you were here two years ago with loyalty reward. (That is how long ago the giveaway was.) The full release isn’t long though so yay!

UnluckyEddie

The only thing that changed is I moved houses. The computer is the same

FireSpin

pirate tripper is doing nothing,doesn't say anything just a black window. same thing happened when I was trying to boot up MBR.

UnluckyEddie

Well at least I know its not just me

Prototype3

I thought Lord of Bomb was the boss and the music was just not kicking in…is Lord of Bomb a boss?…or a mini boss

hatuho

Where can I get the Dungeons of Submission.It getting an 404 error.

BunnyUqou

bit surprised no update on the 5 this time you all right?

Nameless

The link expired two years ago. It's part of a giveaway during that time. So unless you have been there with loyalty rewards during the time, you'll have gotten it. Wait for the full game, which is almost done.

Nameless

I mean, Bomb has been trying to get DOS done, while at the same time, get the monthly updates done too. To be honest, I'm surprised they aren't burnt out doing all of this.

Prototype3

I love the update, it’s definitely worth the wait. But, how on earth do I defeat the final boss? Bombs? Edit: In fact…what am I suppose to do? I dropped the bomb lord at the weird pod thing and it doesn’t look like it’s damaging it. Help?

Bomb-A-HEAD

I explain it right there in the post Lenne... =). I'm fine though, thanks.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Bomb Lord is there to be a nuisance. Pay close attention to the color of the pod.

anotherone

freaking LOVE the update! suprised though no sensual shockling! who drops the lucky cat ring cuz i cant seem to find it anywhere

Bomb-A-HEAD

Thanks anotherone. Cat ring is a hard one. It can spawn on the first stage, in multiple places.

Bomb-A-HEAD

Thanks again. I'll patch some of those things. I'll probably leave the stage 2 part the same, since the player does have the option to simply walk around it. Besides, that's the best place to get the Quatile (Fishman) drops.

Deekin

The main problem with it is that the player is given no indication they're making any progress at all until the room lets you go after a LOT of kills. I can understand not reducing the amount of kills required, but there needs to be some indication to the player that it's not bugged. A "kill x many to proceed" sign popping up, the gates flashing per kill, I dunno, but something.

Xhen

Pirate Tripper doesn't seem to work for me. I left it there for about 5 minutes but nothing happened.

Icarnix

I'm actually curious where to find these items like the mount skill which I did find on the 2nd/ice level but I got trapped with the four armed enemies and lost my skill. Another bit of feedback is the ice level's water pump puzzle, it is a bit vague for me and each time I go to a pump and get it wrong, it resets and possibly randomizes the order. Any clarification on that would be helpful.

Bomb-A-HEAD

You just activate the pumps according to the diagram. The pumps do not randomize if you get one incorrect.

Icarnix

I really should make a list of the bugs I find in the update. During the part with the three bomb lord entrances blocked by that grey barrier, I used the Ice Ring which froze one of the Bomb Lords then I used the fire ring to turn it orange and it began moving with the ice shape around it. I also noticed that some enemies during the section of getting the discs that they get stuck at the corners of the area where you put the discs in.
