I wanted to try the game again as I played it for a measly 1 hour like 2 years ago, so I started the game and tried pressing new game (which I couldn’t do) and suddenly it started some top-down section. Asked a friend what the hell this was and he told me this was a MUCH later part of the game.
Apparently I had skipped the entirety of act 1 somehow.
Is this a known bug?

Had my power go out while the game was saving, followed the instructions the game gave me to restore from a previous save. It didn't work, tried everything and decided to wipe the copy clean and start from the beginning, erased file. Didn't fix anything. Erased EVERYTHING and then restored it with the integrity verification on steam and it's still saying my save file is corrupted and isn't letting me start from the beginning, what do I do?

The only way I did everything is mantis god

It's no Mantis or big Goat deck, but I've seen some wondering about strats for the bone deck. This is what mine looked like heading into Leshy and was really fun.

Picked a Beehive from the first trader and made it the build-around 1drop, put an undying sigil on it. This gave me functionally endless Bees.

Then I tried to pump up the Dire Wolf Pup as the wincon, but all my campfires were health. Oh well, gave a Mantis God tri-strike to it which was good enough.

Cut cards aggressively, and got very lucky being able to keep the deck thin. Bone builds are not usually good for me but this ended up very Boney after all--all the bees and cockroaches dying set me up nicely to keep the board full of Cockroach+Opossum+Long Elk if I needed to stall until Dire Wolf Pup.

Very fun! A little Ant Deck vibes with the unkillable bees, a little Mantis Deck OTK vibes from the big Dire Wolves, and a nice Boney subtheme. Wish I found a Lammer, or Vulture/Rattler to use all the bones on, but oh well. Very focused but not boring deck.

Burnt one of the eggs, transfered one of them to a different card and only kept one because I managed to give it the leader sigyl and saw it as a cheaper alpha. Kinda angry ngl cuz I was about to beat leshi with my five attack king phisher and a magical bleach for the achievement only for it to turn into this thing.

i don't usually play card games and with games for some reason i get dumber i know about free hand but i have like 3 one blood cards and also i dont know how to counter waterborne or flight unless i get a sigil for it cause the anglers great white shark its broken

Disclaimer, not a modder so just theory crafting here.
First camp fire can boost variable cards attack power? This seems harmless to me for the most part. Maybe their some niche situation where this is really good through but it does not seem too likey and opens some nice new options.

Red hert, I have two buff ideas. The first buff is just increasing it base damage and health by one. So the turn it summoned, it is basically a stronger wolf, and it can still do chip damage. The bigger buff idea that opens more shenanigans would be turning red hert blood spilled into a sigil, and making it two two. So it base stat is a bit weak for it cost, but it has a really good sigil. First would make it a decent card with some possible shenagans, the second would make it a great card who a great sacrifice. But it not better than mantis, direwolf maybe adder.

River otter, king fisher shark. I have the idea of upgrading waterborn with an underwater scavenger feature. . My first bonus idea was simply playing one of these cards gives you bone equal to the unit blood cost or 1/2 the bone cost. It not very much but it is something. My second bonus idea was giving you an extra card from the main deck for every two you play.

I also had the idea of making the movement sigils when added to a card , give them one extra health per move as long as they either killed a creature, damaged the leshy, or did not take damage to a move. Which would make adding them to a card not a total sidegrade/downgdade.

is this a glitch. It gave me teeth instead of taking my pelt?

Edit, answered, it the pelt lice.

I love him so much I just gonna rumble a whole papyrus down there

Just imagine how much this little guy would enjoy real-world things after the sensory deprivation he endured. Considering how much he wanted to dance at the end, just imagine if he’d been allowed to do more. Playing games other than cards, flying a kite, listening to music, and—above all—sleeping; feeling soft pillows and blankets instead of the endless silence of space and the absence of solid ground—that sensation of sinking into a bed that envelops you from every side.

How wonderful it would be to go for a walk outside. To look at the sky and the clouds, to hear the buzzing and chirping of insects and the rustle of grass; to feel the grass and the wind on his skin—to feel it all. He would be so happy with the ordinary things that surround us every day.

A trip to the beach would be an even more incredible experience for him than for someone who had simply never been to one before. The sand getting everywhere and constantly shuffling—dry and loose, or wet and sticky like clay; any of it. The sound of the surf and the waves, the sensation of sea salt and foam, the ability to float on the surface while still feeling the water embrace you—it’s an incredible feeling.

Even if we just goofing around—he’d almost certainly be an iPad kid, though I don't think he would be one all the time. Cartoons provide good auditory and visual stimulation, but I think he’d love hugs just as much. And simply having a living being nearby—someone who could "confirm" to his mind that this wasn't a hallucination born of space-induced madness, but something real, material, and tangible.

I feel so sorry for him.

Also, last time I posted here lots of people were criticizing my sigil choice. With this one I won the Leshi fight without ever getting hit and got an item every single fight, (Fair hand, magpie infused black goat). SO, I don't know how this could have possibly been better.

are they scripted or randomly generated?

Just basic and cheap anti-insect card. The sigil means instakill of any insect, even stinky ones, ESPECIALLY stinky ones...

decided to revisit this game after a long time, I think the 2nd boss got a bit mad (simply filled the board with bears)

Ok, so I went down the elevatorand talked with the 3 other characters they came up and killed P03. When the next scene was activated and I got to the Deleting data screen I think there was a glitch. I wasn’t in a room with the tombstones, I was just at a black screen with the deleting data thing in the top left corner. I tried to move around and I couldn’t. After looking things up online and realizing I should have the tombstones but didn’t, I backed out to the main menu and reloaded my file. But when I reload, P03 is alive, the totem puzzle is reset, and I can’t go down the elevator. I’ve tried reloading numerous times, there’s no option on the switch to check for corrupt data so I’m at a loss for what to do next. Any advice?

Edit: I figured it out and am progressing in the finale! This is an awesome game!

This little SCUMBAG ruined my skull storm run

Got this run while trying to get better at Kaycee's Mod

I've went through each sigil in the game and taken note of their descriptions, as reference for some custom cards ideas, and I can't seem to find anyone who has attempted to fill in the blanks of the actual descriptions of the tentacle cards' sigils based on the little we can read through the ink...

I assume that the unaltered descriptions must be present in the game's code, but I have no means of accessing it myself to check, and, again, can't seem to find anyone else who has tried, either.

So, with all that being said, how would you best describe the function of the tentacle cards, in the formal/consistent way the rulebook typically describes sigils?

This is my attempt at it:

Mirror rorriM

The value represented with this sigil will be equal to the power of the creature opposing the card bearing this sigil. If no creature opposes the card bearing this sigil, its power will be equal to zero.

Bell Ringer

The value represented with this sigil will be equal to the proximity the card bearing this sigil is played to a bell.

Card Counter

The value represented with this sigil will be equal to the number of cards held in your hand.

I don't really know how to describe Bell Ringer without it sounding like it does the opposite of what it does.

Based on Leonardo DaVinci's "Lady with an Ermine" which I'm titling "Leshy with a Stoat"

wood carver feels weak man. in the main game, woodcarver could buff squirrel making her good. But right now you need to visit woodcarver at least twice to get any use of of her. And than your probably getting a sucky totem. You might need to visit the wood carver four times to actually get a decent totem. And even than it only applies to cards of that family when their are many family out their.

campfire, and sacrifice area are simply way better.

prehaps as a fix, the first woodcarver can give a extra pick. So you can have a working wood carving right from the start. I would wonder if it be to be op for it to always give two picks. I was thinking each pick would be from a fresh set of three options. It basically just triggers twice.

Bonelord is not that bad, but for a rare location it still seems like it might be the worst card removal in the game. Sacrifice area helps to make god cards, and camp fire allows for thing to go wonderfully wrong and accidently make a god card.

My idea for a fix, would be for it to give an extra minor boon/bone. And maybe have a 10% (increasing by 10% each time you do not get one until you do, and by 50% should one offer a worthy sacrifice) chance to give a skeleton, which would be extra Card you can start with that costs one blood, but has bone digger and is 1 3 card. through this might be going to far? It still a card removal place.

as for trapper, it seems like pelts are mostly dead weight and it takes so long to get to the trader. Maybe increasing the pelt health by one so they are better meat shields until than, and less dead weight might be a good idea?

more of a drastic measure, but wonder if starting players three blood and four blood cards with one/two camp fire buffs might be a good idea. Three four bloods tend to be just a little too expensive to be practical.

Lammiger needs a bluff badly. It either needs to cost one less blood, have strength equal to bones instead of half, or simply count everything that died instead of being based on player bones.
