@mattfrei watching channel 4, you are aggressive and wonderful in interviewing people giving political non-answers.

You have a fan! Keep up the great work.

@jeff_maljjin @idiotburner @cliffski Also the mentality that there is an algorithm out there that can easily sort 'important' from non?

@StarmancerGame @AnotherDiarr Does it matter is such a good metric for any performance enhancing choice

Adding NPCs to set tasks / give rewards. Sort of like Prison Architect's grants system.

I find it's useful to draw out a building in photoshop, before I put it together in Unity.

..and the iron mine (where you trade cultists for Iron Ore)

Infinite Cruel Dreams (to no practical effect, I was just testing the Dream Chapel at all 4 rotations)

Twitch didn't save the title/game settings for the stream, so everyone's getting alerts about Slay the Spire instead of DF, so we'll have less than half the viewers we should. People are going to miss out on the awesome, and I'll have a harder time paying bills. I hate computers.

@SuperstringLtd @GreyAlien Is Rock Paper Shotgun's weekly tag round ups worth anything? I don't remember their articles being worth much for my last game.

Added a penalty for deleting a bookshelf, as there should be.

[Cultist Factory @cultistfactory]

Added a slight randomness to the text spawn Y.

[Cultist Factory @cultistfactory]

Added shelves that grow out of The Library, every few hundred cultists that you feed to it. https://t.co/tSL4Bjt77V

The Summoning Pool, granting cultists the "Glimpse Of Horror" trait. https://t.co/tSL4Bjt77V

[Cultist Factory @cultistfactory]

Trait icons now display overhead of the cultists, and mousing-over a cultist shows what are in that cultist's 3 trait slots.

@RyanSumo @wexistence Happy birthday!

[Cultist Factory @cultistfactory]

Moved building cost/profit text to the side, over the head of a tiny accountant cultist.

This will leave the space over the cultist being changed for status effects & new traits.

Made it chunkier before breakfast. Still need to tweak one of the tentacles I think... https://t.co/UXJArOdVwh
