Base prices increase by 10% each time you buy a power up, so you want to buy the most expensive stuff first.
Respecs are also completely free so feel free to play around in there.
Finally got that last achievement (survive 30 minutes with Lama). For a few minutes I stood still to avoid picking up XP and raising my curse level, but knockback resistant bosses forced me to move.
Until the next patch, I guess...

I've actually been watching this at work, just keeping it on in the background. Pekora is one of the top female streamers right now.
I'm not in the Vtuber scene, but I have to assume that person is a hugely popular streamer.
Also, yeesh seeing people play early game.. I'm never resetting the power ups or turning off Hyper lol.
Ah okay. Had to be because that number blows away everything I've seen.
She is entertaining I have to say.

Yeah a huge streamer like Pekora is gonna get a lot of eyes on the game, it might even get some of the other Hololivers to play it.
Getting a big streamer like her playing the game is super cool. Also I don't speak Japanese but she's obviously super into it
Man I'm way too into chasing fame on the leaderboards right now. In-game integration would be great.
I'm absolutely addicted to this game. The core loop is just so mesmerizing and fun. Finding which weapon and item combos allow for evolutions, slowly seeing which weapon synergies work best together and with which characters. It's pretty nuts. For a 3 buck early access game it's incredibly polished too.
On a good run the balance does exhaust itself well before you hit the 30 minute limit though. Usually around 20 min-ish it's quite obvious if you'll succumb because of poor weapon/item combinations, or if you have hit that transcendent point where nothing is a challenge anymore. Usually when you have at least 2 evolved weapons lol. There's certainly a lot more potential to balance that out and add something that keeps players on their toes.

That's pretty good! I think my max kills was in the low 50k. Is Lama the best for climbing the leaderboard due to the curse levels?
Feel like there could just be a fixed price instead. Since there's an optimal way to buy upgrades you're just wasting gold if you do it any other way.
Lama is the only character who can place highly on the Most Kills boards, due to the added curse, yeah. The extra 20% adds so many more enemies that no other character can keep pace. The problem is just staying alive, with the Curse power up maxed, the Skull item equipped, and Lama's passive curse scaln
You play Imelda for the Highest Level board, Most Gold is a free for all.
I was top 5 on Library too but dropped to #8. Tbh the guy at #1 on that list is so many kills ahead (like 4k) I'm not sure that is a legit run.
Apologize for the ignorant question, but where do you find the leaderboards? I'm playing on Steam and can't seem to find them.
Also, for highest gold, wouldn't the new character, Exdash, be ideal? If you max out your luck and choose him, you're at +130% luck at the start. Build that up even further and once you max out your items/weapons and just choose the money bags, it seems like you'd get a higher chance of scoring big on all the treasure chests. Hmm... Maybe I'll try this later! Lol.

For gold yeah Exdash is technically ideal for runs, but playing him on max curse? Godspeed. Looks like he is the only option on Library, but Krochi is a contender on the open maps, probably because of his speed bonus.

Looks like the game is spreading among the Hololive vtubers, at least 6 so far have streamed playing it for hours

Using Imelda I was finally able to evolve the whip and garlic. My maxed loadout for the full 30-minute run was:
King Bible (unevolved)
Bloody Tear
Holy Wand
Soul Eater
Death Spiral
Thunder Loop
Duplicator
Attractorb
Basically untouchable after 20 minutes. I love a good power trip.

Vampire Survivors - Vampire Survivors is a time survival game with minimalistic gameplay and roguelite elements.Hell is empty, the devils are here, and there's no place to run or hide. All you can do is survive as long as you can until death inevitably puts an end to your struggles. Gather gold...
sorry for maybe the obvious question, but there is max time on the maps, what is it? I see it in some of the screenshots people post.
My best run was 29:28. Now I feel bummed haha, oh well back to it
Technically 30 minutes. However, you can survive for much longer if you game the system:
Think I saw a guy go 230+ minutes.
I'm super addicted to this game. Even if the sprites are Castlevania rip-offs, it's sooooo good.
Patch Up!

I finally completed level two. You know, when you've "got it" during a certain run, I feel as though you know it well ahead of time.
This is going to be a great "jump in for a bit here and there" type of game. The continued support will keep bringing me back. Can't resist the achievements.
My one big complaint with the game is if I make the 15 minute threshold, I usually don't have to worry about anything else for the rest of the game. That's 15 minutes of being op and that does grow a bit tedious after 5.
I hope they can rebalance the game so some of the evolutions aren't auto-wins once you get them.
Have you played the third stage at all? It's much tougher than the other two, especially when curse is thrown in to the mix.
I've finished all 4 stages on hyper so far, though I'll admit I haven't used the curse much.
Late to the party on this one but this game is addicting.
The second stage with Clerici is great for farming gold. Max out the water, rune tracer, and cross while picking up area, damage, and cooldown buffs and you can pretty much sit still the entire time. If you dump all your money into the greed power up and also pick up the xp buff you can get a fuckton of chests through leveling up by the end.

So if I unlock red death, is the rest of the cast pretty much irrelevant? The character seems so blatantly OP to me, but I'm also a scrub at this game
He is okay, however the one character who has a duration affect rise 1% for every time she levels up is pretty OP given the right stuff.
Patch Up!
Idk, I have like 30 hours it's fun to just play different builds and maxing out stats. I love garlic for whatever reason and it's just great to have max AOE or max out some weird weapons like Time or Tracer with cooldown or duration
You don't necessarily have to try for 6 synergized evolutions, you can also plan out which builds to go for on specific maps once you have the map.
Like the Dairy you always get 4 specific support pickups: attractorb, armor, wings, and candelabra. So you can get 6 "other" support skills and still pick axe and holy water leaving the 4 Dairy specific ones till the end meaning you can have 10 support pickups or you can get "Level 6" of those support pickups if you find them after Level 5.
Well the library is only in one plane (left-right) so it makes it much easier if you know where the majority of enemies are coming from

Wait, am I reading this right? You can get more than six items if you grab the Map ones after filling your slots?
Well then, this changes some of my strategies...
Yep... and depending of the map choosen, you can have between 8-11 passive abilities (instead of 6).
Finally joined the party, and it lives up to the hype. Garlic feels a bit OP as others say but I'm only to the 2nd stage. This thing has the potential to be MASSIVE on mobile.
I really like the mechanic of killing swarms of enemies but not getting any benefit until you can pick up the runes/crystals/eggs/thingies that they leave behind. Makes it even more kinetic.

Yeah this is a thing that poncle is working on, the last dev roadmap blog says it requires an engine rewrite (which is in progress), due out in summer.

Eventually you'll get the feel and realize Garlic and Bible are only better weapon picks than say... Laurel.
If you haven't, try turning off damage numbers. That made a huge difference on mine.
They really need to come up with a compelling mechanic for minute 20-30.
Like maybe a low hp mechanic where you deal more damage on low hp or something that drains your hp in exchange for a great buff
Maybe like an autoplay feature if you stand still
Speed burst for running long distances
Also some QoL things like lootboxes are visually distincitve with what they contain: food/$/item
I would also like to see maybe 4 minibosses that you can fight maybe at the extreme corners or the maximum direction going North/East/South/West
The two newest weapons are horribly imbalanced
