Fighting for My Life in A First Person CARD GAME! - Shroom and Gloom 

Here's the game if you want to check it out, it's not often that I play a game that isn't on Steam: teamlazerbeam.itch.io/shroom-and-gloom

"I've never played, look at my silly mistakes" "Instantly builds a flawless deck using vulnerability stacks" I'm onto you tyler

i like how your character's hand becomes more mushroom-like as the game progresses, until you're covered in shrooms by the end

i love how some people find card games not too fun, but this game brings an interesting design with its first person aspect, just like inscryption with it’s secrets and story

Thanks heaps for picking up our shroomy baby! Looking forward to giving this a proper watch when we've got the time, but for now just wanted to check in and say thanks for playing!

Tyler : with replenish,a card cant be bad,no reason not to take it Also tyler : does not pick a card with replenish that synergises with his deck

I thought inscryption was an anomaly, but I was wrong. The card game genre is just fun to watch + play

Imagine going into a cave and instead of bringing a sword, dagger, or bow, you bring cards and an appetite

Surprised you didn’t take the card that would give energy whenever you eat with how many eating items you had. Could’ve had some long chains with that combo!

This feels very much inspired by Slay the Spire. Even has the same mechanics and wording for card effects as well.

Kinda wish this was the next Inscryption - would've loved to see hours and hours of gameplay out of this rather than just the one straight run. Very cool looking deck builder!

I would like to point out that your unholy soup was made from 3 toasties, so presumably if you end a fight with unconsumed toasties in your deck, you can throw them into the pot to make soup without losing anything too valuable.

Seeing how you like card games so much, I just wanted to see if you’d go back to fight the secret Mycologists boss fight in Act 3 of Inscryption. I feel like you’d enjoy it. But other than that, love your videos, and keep up the amazing content and questionably amazing fan base.

Wow, never seen a game like this where the enemies feel like they're REALLY trying to kill you. So strange, yet very cool!

You really should've taken the "get 1 energy when eating" card, considering it's replenish

41:55 Got a dev response on that before; there is no way to recharge the flash, and they dont intend on changin that. Its meant to represent a phone you browt with you from the surface world and the mushrooms dont have any tech to recharge it with

When enemies run away, they come back stronger in the next battle. You might not want to let too many get away, else you’re gonna have a bad time.

I didn’t think toothpicks were going to be consistent enough to be good, and it would be relegated to meme status. I was very wrong. That’s some big damage.

I like how the characters hand kept getting more and more messed up the longer it went on, turning blue and growing mushrooms. Creepy.

This feels almost like a reskin of Slay The Spire. The battles are pretty similar, and the 3d exploration puzzles are a more detailed path you'd take in inscription or STS after the battles. All in all this could be a great spiritual successor to STS.

Ah, the Inscryption withdraws hit different for everyone, but we are all suffering.

this looks so cool, i love first person games and inscryption is making me get into card games

This game honestly looks really awesome, and I'm surprised it's choose your own price. I don't know the extent of the game that the developers have in mind, but this definitely feels like it has a lot of potential. The graphics are charming, the game looks pretty intuitive once you play a couple of hands, and the theming is very consistent. I look forward to seeing what else may come from this!

The 1 cost "if fatal activate twice" (forgot the name) is really frickin good, especially against the stupid shield shit. Extremely fun, kinda want these guys to make a longer and more in depth version of this game. I would totally pay 20+ dollars for it

Whoever did the thumbnail did an AWESOME work, it is beautiful.

Hey Tyler, I recently played Return of the Obra Dinn, a puzzle game/murder mystery where you investigate a ghost ship where all the crew mysteriously died. It was tough, but I was very satisfied. You may have heard of it. Have you played it already, and if not, do you plan to on stream? I think you'd enjoy it. Edit: in case it influences your opinion, yes, it is available on steam, as well as the switch eshop of all places.

Tyler I've been going back and binging so many of your series. Recommend them all!

Tyler if you want to beat the game easily you can get a scythe and use the training dummy (one training dummy is fine) on the scythe to get both vulnerable and if fatal increase damage by 2 and just spam the scythe with a small deck and it will power up per enemy it kills. If you get either of the sacrifices and growth cards will power it up quicker. I got a 91 damage scythe and rekted the final boss. The vulnerable is to get rid of shields quicker. You can give your other cards replenish and energize for consistency. Also you can run by holding shift.

I like the touch where your hands get progressively more and more covered in fungus

I like the effect where the further you progress the more fungi grows on your hand

insane combinations of genre, i love these, i wonder what other insane genre combinations exist

Very interesting, seems like the game is very focused on things being powerful. Spell shield, vulnerable, on kill, growing cards. I like it.

great video as always! your videos always give me a smile when i watch them.

I absolutely love the look of this game, the art style goes crazy

This game seems AWESOME. I hope it fleshes out more. Hopefully I'll be able to play it on the Steamdeck when it comes out, haha

I would happily watch another playthrough of this from you. Hopefully they get some content added soon though for sure

seems like an amazing game, really hope we will see more of it

The guys blue hand was slowly turning into a mushroom

thank you aliens rock, for awakening in me a love for deck building games. TYTYTY

Oh cool!!! I’ll have to check this game out!

Looks like a next slay the spire seeing how similar in some senses they are. Hope they keep up development becuase the vibe here is both funky and cool

I just noticed that by the end of the game the character you play as is covered in warts or fungus or mushrooms whatever it is. Pretty cool

I’m convinced I’ll watch anything Aliensrock plays

i don't know why but it feels like slay the spire, just in different style

please we need more of this

28:59 Tyler is still trying to burn cards in campfire

can’t wait to see more of this

this really looks like inscyption but the exploring and card battles have the same amount of content pretty good

That’s a really interesting game idea, I like it.

feels like slay the spire with a 3d theme added on top and a decent exploration mechanic

it appears that when an enemy escapes it gets stronger in the next fight, great game tyler

Interesting game. Hope to see more of it when its finished. 😎

Play words can kill. Its a perfect game for you imo

This game's pretty fun! Can't wait for more updates!

You had a potential infinite. You could have gotten 2 glutton. Willing sacrifice -> 4 toasty (get 8 energy & rotten toothpicks) -> draw rest of deck -> willing sacrifice

I’d love to see this game get updated it looks really cool as a strategy game and it’s lore could be very interesting

wouldnt glutton be extreemly good in his deck? Either way his deck ended up drawing so many cards for almost no cost that hed go through everysingle card in his deck anyways lmao.

Apparently grabbing Gluttony with the usual eat engine can make you draw the entire deck to play with, so that's cool. Also hit for 336 on my run today

very interesting might check it out

Wow, that's cool

27:24 Glutton seems amazing with that deck

I cannot believe this is a free to play game.

If only he took that glutton card, who knows how crazy his comboes could have been

If you pay attention to the hand holding the map, it starts out normal and at the end of the run it's overgrown with mushrooms as you eat more and more of them

Fighting for your life huh? well i am glad that you put a link to Inscryption

When deck-building card games become “the thing”

Little detail that I noticed: The hand of the player started to grow mushrooms itself over the course of the game. The biggest contrast is visible if you look at the beginning and the end of the video.

This whole game in just a week? And it’s even kinda 3D! That good of a 3D/2D card game In one single week? What

Seems cool!

Inscription is over, new card game? Dang it im sold

I got slay the spire a couple days ago and love it, this game feels like all the same good mechanics but a nice reboot of story and cards, I haven't watched very long so I don't know if you've ever played slay the spire, but I urge you to check it out if you haven't and liked this game!

Seems like slay the spire from the wording and the actions

Damn, hope this game gets better with more development time, its already looking good and fun

Man that final boss got sauced

Coming up with rules for a card game in a week, let alone designing and coding an actual game around it, is nutty.

you should try leaving some toasties in your hand at the end of a fight so you can use them to make soup

Local Rock goes crazy on shrooms and decimates the entire species

This is like a weird mix of Slag the Spire and the legend of bumbo

13:05 there was something to the right in one of the corridors that stood out at 9:43 but i think it was the lock from the door.

28:33 if you used the toothpick it would've become toasty because it was seasoned

I feel like there are issues within the game's balancing but overall is a neat experience.

This is incredibly like slay the spire but it actually seems pretty fun

I'm glad there are more games being made in the vein of Paper Sorcerer, which was a D&D based dungeon crawler with first person exploration, and turn based battles, but the dev's decided not to work on a sequel which is a massive shame, considering the game was incredibly flexible, and could have been much much bigger in scope!

Oooo seems cool

This looks like a good game!

28:55 inscryption habits coming in i see

in a week?? the devs are insane damn

This game would be sick in VR, I would love to try that

This would make for a great VR card game

Tyler, don't know if you're going to see this, but the Shroom and Gloom team shouted out your video on the game's page!

awesome!

Despite having never played slay the spire, this makes me want to play slay the spire

Very cool card game! Another inscryption type of game somehow

i would love to see more of this game if there are updates for it

the hand at the beggining, and the hand at the end are different. Nice details.

And so the cycle repeats itself

"Fighting for my life in a card game" If I had a nickle for everytime Aliensrock had to play a card game for his life I'd have two nickles, which isn't alot but it's weird that it happened twice. -I mean, what is this? Yu-Gi-Oh?-

oh i want more

i love eating combat mechanics. if you can just ingore and armed gunman and quickly eat a fucking cup o noodle in the middle of a battle it is a great game

Adventure... awaits! Huzzah!
