It's much easier with endgame buildings but the only one I had built when I got it was the one that gives you some free rerolls so it's very possible to get it with just luck. Also this is a pretty funny double-evo fusion.

Speaking of overpowered fusions - give Black Hole Sun a try - I am assuming that's an intentional reference ;p ( Fire + Light -> Sun + Dark -> Blackhole )

Overgrowth + any AOE is also pretty absurd, I am reasonably sure there's a bug in there somewhere in the calculations.

Nosferatu + any explosion is also pretty good, although Nosferatu is such a pain in the ass that I can rarely get it online before the run is effectively over.

For the ease of making it, I think Overgrowth is the most busted. It triggers on any AE, including things like the blind skills that hit the entire map. Fused with sun it triggers constantly across every mob + sets them on fire.

I actually think black hole is pretty awful compared to the other advanced evos, and probably worse htan just using sun much less sun fused with any number of other options. Nuke fills basically the same niche but does a big old aoe of heavy damage instead of a single target instant kill.

It is, but black hole sun is a fusion of black hole and sun, which is a *very* different beast. Give it a try ;p

ooooh. guess I will.

Satan is pretty wild, constantly applies burn and berserk to the entire field while it's out.

hooooooooly shit lmfao. feel like black hole flash and black hole flicker would do the same thing but that is crazy.

boss damage is terrible and the power loss when you first evolve black hole is pretty severe but the money generation is absolutely insane.

The game is fun but once you upgrade a bit everything becomes fairly trivial, it never feels like I have any difficulty winning a run even if I make poor combines on 3x speed. Is there a difficulty setting that I'm not finding somewhere or is this just meant to be a streamer game?

That tends to be the problem with Roguelite mechanics. finding the right balance of giving upgrades, while not trivializing the content.
The card battlers like Slay the spire/monster train tend to work better. as they give more cards, which can be more power.. but it also increases RNG. Challenges, etc also increase the difficultly.

classic arcade games were just fun, and didn't need it.

Leaderboards for high scores? maybe putting that back into the spotlight would help.

endless levels, see how far you can go, tetris, etc style.

Just keep pumping the speed until you fail. Trying weird combos of characters can also up the difficulty.

Haha the final character unlock is one that plays the game itself so the streamer can go take a break while it does its thing.

The upgrades come fast enough in normal game that it is never particularly difficult - unless you focus only on one map by the time you get up to fast+6 and higher you 'outgear' them by a lot - NG+ scales very quickly though.

Honestly the two automated characters might be the most technically impressive thing about the game. The only thing I found the autoplay character couldn't handle was being paired with the physicist.

Oh man, nuclear bomb fused with Cell is fun. Splits and keeps nuking so your mushroom clouds are going off constantly.
