I agree with your suggestions around quality of life changes. The display of movement/attack ranges is definitely in need of some love! I need to put together some more icons so that everything is distinct and then I can probably add them along the bottom of the blue border or something.
Regarding the black box thing, I reckon I know what that is, the upgrades have a minimum level and a maximum level and I bet I'm filtering it where the current level is less than the max level instead of less than or equal to. I'm busy tonight but I'll have a look at that when I get a chance so you can get back to kicking my ass ;)

I find circling around backwards to keep enemies at arm's reach is the key. One thing I haven't done yet is make it obvious that you can click on the enemies to see their attack radius. If you take it slow, you can generally thread the needle around the triangles' attacks but sometimes you need to just take the hit to get out of the way. With an upgraded chain range you can out-range them and pull them in to shoot them too.

Basically movement is key, you get an upgrade each level and after 8 levels it just becomes an endless wave defense until you die and set a high score.

So far I've burned through almost 2.5kg of green coffee and had a single 200g batch that I enjoyed drinking.
For me it's definitely more for fun than seriously trying to roast all my coffee intake. I'm trying to replicate extremely high quality light roast filter coffee with an actual pile of junk but I enjoy the process.
If you have yard space, I'd definitely recommend sourcing some green beans (they're not usually SUPER expensive at least where I live) and give popcorn maker roasting a go, it's good fun! Definitely don't do it inside though, the amount of smoke and chaff that comes off these things is shocking.

Before I bought it on PC I did have a bit of a look around RE a switch port but I didn't see anything.

The puzzles are great, the guidebook mechanic is super smart and the combat is just the right level of hard as to be challenging but not throw a controller through the screen infuriating. I love it and I'm going to be sad when it's done.

Comment on What are your favorite Linux distributions to use for gaming and as a daily driver, and why? in ~comp

Comment on What is your favorite game you'll never finish? in ~games
rmgr LinkDark Souls and Hollow Knight for the same reason. I love the idea of the games, Iove the worlds, love the art. They both make me so incredibly angry that I just don't enjoy playing them.Dark Souls and Hollow Knight for the same reason. I love the idea of the games, Iove the worlds, love the art.
