Ron Gilbert (GrumpyGamer)If you bought Death by Scrolling and are enjoying it, please give it a thumbs up on Steam. A lot of people have bought it thinking it's yet another Vampire Surviver clone and it's not so they leave crappy reviews. Death by Scrolling is a very different game for a different audience.
Troed Sångberg@grumpygamer Esp. the reviews claiming there's no character building because they haven't understood the cards are pretty sad to see people appreciate ...
@troed Yeah, frustrating
m_eiman@grumpygamer it’s a bit sad that games only cost 8 euro these days. I guess I’ll have to buy two or three copies.
Thomas 🇪🇺@grumpygamer The reviews actually put me off even though I followed the dev cycle pretty closely and was curious how it would turn out.
@raise_project You and a lot of people. It's a fun game, just don't think it's a Vampire Surviver clone.
@grumpygamer I'll jump right in tomorrow and see for myself. Can't imagine it's not fun.
@raise_project If you don't like fast-action and dying a lot as you level your character, don't buy it. I might have saved you $8. But if you like those things and great humor, pick it up. I just cost you $8.
@grumpygamer
That's pretty much my jam. Got my copy. :)
That's pretty much my jam. Got my copy. :)
@grumpygamer In short: I'm two hours in and game loop works great, can't confirm most of the negative comments except the one for the music. As a non metal head and someone who is sensitive for game music it is a bit too intense.
Great after work game IMHO.
@raise_project What it the comment about the music? If you don't like the metal, just uncheck it.
@grumpygamer The first comment I read on Steam was that its always the same relatively short music loop.
Found the metal deactivator in the menus. I did not expect that. The alternative tune fits much better, I think.
@raise_project The music is actually a very complex adaptive track. People don't pay attention.
@grumpygamer What they meant is probably that that the music is perceived as repeated pretty quickly and because its so intense, partially, you either click with it or it works against you.
I acfually prefer the music per biome approach but I see that this is a lot more work.
Just some thoughts. :)

silverwizard@grumpygamer Done! And having hella fun with DBS! Thanks for making it!
GNU/Trinukso ۞@grumpygamer Will it be available on GOG? I'm a customer of that store.
z3r0@trinux @grumpygamer +1 to this question
@z3r0 Yo creo que no. Él como estudio sí publicó en GOG.
Su editora, MicroProse, ha publicado en GOG. Ahora bien, hace mucho que no saca nada allí. Lo último fue B-17 Flying Fortress The Mighty 8th Redux. No pinta bien...
contact (arroba) microprose.co.uk
@z3r0 No creas. Ya te digo... esa editora lleva más de un año sin sacar nada en GOG. A veces los clientes parecemos comerciales de GOG. Y eso debería hacerlo GOG, je je.
@trinux pues mira, dado que mi preferencia es GOG casi siempre, opino deberíamos ser consumidores/clientes quienes decidieramos cómo y dónde queremos comprar.
Hace tiempo que no compro nada en Steam, entre otras cosas porque ya no tengo mucho tiempo para jugar, pero siempre miro primero en GOG.
@z3r0 Solo por apoyar una tienda que, al menos, rechaza la restricción de derechos. Bien está.
También te digo, je je, que no tenga DRM no significa que tengamos los derechos que no tenemos en Steam. En GOG también compras una licencia. Aunque no tengas DRM no puedes, por el acuerdo de licencia, compartir tu juego.
Tampoco tenemos la propiedad: compras una licencia de uso. Punto.
@trinux en cuanto a juegos, ya sea en formato físico u otro, siempre se ha tratado de adquirir licencias, ya sea de forma explicita o implícita.
Otra cosa es que con el formato físico tuvieran formas de hacerte cumplir con dicha licencia.

Any way to get the game without using a platform that tracks me?
Any way to get the game without using a platform that tracks me?
Matija Šuklje@grumpygamer, are there any plans on releasing it on GOG (Linux) and/or Nintendo Switch?
Steam is my third preferred platform after those two, so I wonder whether to wait for a later release on either of those two.
@hook Switch is coming soon
@grumpygamer, awesome, thanks!
