Tried the game, had fun! Some feedback, and winning screenshot below.
Positives: -I love the uniqueness of the art. It has a feel that I'd describe as cartography even if the word wasn't in the game title already! -Great job on supporting multiple control mappings; a lot of games only allow numpad, and I struggle with my built-in Mac keyboard :/ -Lol'ed at Gold trap joke -"Oh no" is awesome -After a bit of confusion (more on that below), the game became engaging enough that I'd play it for much more than 3 levels
Negatives/confusion: -I won the game without actually understanding what the unreliability was. I assume that either the unexplored map starts lying to me, or the traps are mismatched? Probably the game needs to be harder to force the player to figure this out precisely; in the current state, I just accurately traversed the map, jumping over all traps, and happily ascended. -The gold indicator doesn't reset properly - extra digits are left in place, so it looks like I restart with non-zero gold
So I downloaded the game and tried to play it. however, when ever I launch it( either from itch launcher or directly from .exe) it shows and error message saying "Failed to execute script pyi_rth_multiprocessing". I have win 7 64 bit and I downloaded uc plus win32.
I got you fam: https://www.kaikairos.dev/downloads/uc/uc-plus-win64.zip <-- try that one. I'll attempt a fresh win64 build if that doesn't do it. Also I'm on Windows 10, so I'm mildly worried that's messing with something, but I don't see why it would be?
No problemo. If python3 runs on your machine, you might be able to run it with the source and tcod installed instead. You can find me on the roguelike Discord or shoot me an email at kkairos at gmail dot com if you're unfamiliar with what that looks like and want some basics on that.
Intriguing. I only just now discovered this and played UC+.
I really wish the camera was zoomed in 2× and followed me around while magnified. One of the issues was jumping to a center area that looked like terrain but was actually a wall, which knocked me to my doom in the pit in front of it, so larger graphics would be nice.
I couldn't find the stairs at all for the second floor and I'm pretty sure that I explored the whole thing. I should have taken a screenshot, but there's no save system anyways... oh, well.
I thought it was very thoughtful of y'all to be flexible with the roguelike control schemes, haha.
Attempting to deal damage to a boulder... made me chortle.
Oh! Thank you for playing! If you decide to go back and see another stair-less floor, a screenshot would be totally 100% appreciated!
It's REALLY hard to make out the stairs from other things right now; one thing we've already done for plus-plus is adjust the stair color so they stand out even when they're dark.

Unfortunately, it didn't work, same error message.
I wanted to try the game, but guess my love for win 7 is wall that's going to get bigger and bigger.
Thanks for your hard work.

Sorry I didn't say this earlier: 2x zoom is sort of on my wishlist for 2.0. I'll see what I can do.
Oh, okay, cool! That would be excellent 😀
