Oh thanks! I finally got round to researching this and found the same thing as you. Sorry about the alerts, I may try to include a different JRE at some point to avoid this.
Bought the game a year ago, I am a huge fan. Is there a way (on Mac) to activate my game on steam (I like the ease of checking for updates etc.) or am I stuck with adding it to steam as a non-steam game? Anyway absolutely love this game! One of the best Roguelites...
bru that new base game layout is pissing me off. I always have to manually force the game to rotate to wide screen. Please make wide screen the base layout like it was before.
Hi, I just noticed that slice and dice is released on steam. Will it be possible to transfer my purchase on itch to steam, or do I need to buy it again? And will I be able to transfer my progress/achievements/unlocks to the steam version? Thank you.
I'm unable to update, I'm getting a file location error. Also the game won't run anymore. This is on Windows 11. I'll try reinstalling. Yeah, it can't install after an uninstall, either. Same problem. Missing jre image or something.
On Windows, I had to download from a browser in order for the update to work and the game to run.
Any attempts at installing/updating/reinstalling through the itch app itself didn't work and rendered the game unplayable, but game is working via direct download.
hi I just got it on steam and was wondering how will mods and modded characters work? Where there be a steam workshop for it or will we have to get mods thru a website
Dude, please make it so that you can choose to rotate the screen manually (without tilting my phone), the default vertical display is weird. It feels very strange for me compared with version 2.0.0.
For some reason, in the classic mod you still come across generated heroes, although the function is not enabled in the menu
I’m curious if there will be any way to transfer your save/progress between devices. For me specifically, the Windows version over to the iOS version. But I’m sure others would be interested in getting their data over to Steam as well. If it’s not possible, that’s not the end of the world, but it would be cool
hello tann. I bought this game on itch a long a time ago and im wondering will it get updated and i will get access to the latest version (i bought it for android) ?
WAT THE PRICE WENT UP!!!??? :( I was gonna get the game, but I'm not sure now... Ugh, I wish I'd beat the deadline. I know u guys will say "It's only 18 Dollars" But i'm dead broke, so... I dont know why i'm even saying this there's no point, but I'm just a little bummed that i missed out, as I've been playing the demo for ages, and was just gonna get the game as soon as I beat Unfair, and I finally did, but... yeah. UGH I WISH I'D JUST GOTTEN IT.
You can still buy it for 9 dollars on Google Play if you want to play on Android or on Steam if you want to play on PC (although you'll have to wait a few days for the Steam release).
The reason it's 18 dollars here is because it gives you both the Android and the PC version.
When I try to buy it with Google Play's in app purchase, it just brings me to this itch.io page, and there's no option on this page to just buy the android version... How do I buy it from Google Play?
Edit: nevermind - I had to download it directly from the Google Play store. I don't know why I thought the in app purchase would work whether it came from itch or GP.
I love this game and have been playing it a ton recently, but I do have one issue that has just come up: as I was playing today my power went out suddenly, and when it came back and I relaunched the game, all of my progress was gone. Not just the run I was on, but all ~80 achievements I had, all my run history--everything was gone. I see that there's an option to just unlock everything (which I really appreciate as a nuclear option), but if anyone knows how I could restore my progress, I would really appreciate their help.
Heck yeah, I’ve been waiting for this game to come to iOS for like a year. I bought it on itch and played it on my computer, but this game is just perfect for mobile, and I’d play it a whole lot more there. And it’s coming out on March 20th, which is my birthday! That’s so awesome!
Unfortunately, when I try to redownload my purchase it keeps downloading the demo from my itch.io library. Is there a solution for this? I would like to play this again it's a great game.
If you buy the android file on itch.io and you have the demo installed on you android device, made sure to uninstall the demo so the full game will work.
I'm a few hundred hours in - this game is a masterpiece! I love it, and it's the only game to hold a very big and steadily growing candle to Slay the Spire! I only play Classic Unfair, but I think it's superbly balanced and wonderfully challenging. At first I thought that the "branching factor" (i.e., number of item/hero choices after each level) was too low, but I think it makes for a unique strategic experience that is distinct from Slay the Spire and its clones. Overall, very few mindless decisions, and I am still figuring it out after hundreds of runs. Easy 10/10.
A free random bugs I've noticed in weird edge cases (on the Android version, if it matters).
When playing Raid Mode, if I get an item from a mimic and try to equip it to someone, it gets equipped to the last member of the party instead. Since that guy is way offscreen, I can't get it back.
When accepting a Fair Trade that gave me an item I already had (Chainmail, in exchange for Coiled Snake), I briefly had the item I had previously equipped to another hero and the new copy. Then I tried to equip both copies to my barbarian, and the first one vanished. Oops. (In cast it matters, I was playing that one on Blursed mode.)
Later in that Blursed run, I accepted the Coiled Snake curse to see if I could duplicate the glitch. I did. Long story short, free chainmail. I got two Coiled Snakes at the start of the next cycle, but made one disappear by equipping both to the same hero.
A couple runs later, I decided to see whether I could equip the Coiled Snake on two heroes at once. I can't. That's good, because now I don't need to feel guilty about exploiting the free chainmail.
And a couple of things that probably aren't bugs, but feel like they could be handled better.
Curses/Blessings which say something like "All heroes: +1 to sides when X happens" but don't affect hero sides added by items.
When a combination of curses or other effects leaves you with more mana than your maximum, but no spells which you can cast, the notification for wasting mana still pops up, which feels incongruous with the notification for usable dice that have no useful targets. (And I realize this sounds petty, but it's kinda annoying. Yes, Mr. Notification Box, I'd love to spend that mana. Go talk with Mr. Jinx over there about that.)
I went into Raid Mode, beat up a couple mimics, and decided to test the item-equipping thing. (It had been a while since I got that bug.)
I can equip Golden Thread to the yellow heroes fine. I also got Wine, which I tried to give to one of the red heroes but which went straight to the first gray hero. When I leveled up that gray hero I successfully gave it to one of the orange heroes, then tried a red one again and it went to the gray hero.
Great game, and love the generous demo, single-unlock, no ads, business model. Happy to support!
Does anyone know why achievement copying doesn't seem to work on Chromebook? I get the message saying 'copied to clipboard' but nothing actually copies onto the clipboard. Just trying to sync up my achievements on Chromebook and phone. Ta.

does this auto update when i launch? i bought it when 2.0 came out and i didnt have an itch.io account so i cant see if there is an update file
Doesnt auto update. When you purchased, did you perhaps get an email to a download link? I'm just making a guess, but that might work
Same here let me know if you suceed to update it to 3.0
It seems Steam has a Linux version, will we be able to get that version here?
Hi all, just tried to download the windows version and my antivirus is saying there is a virus (exploit):
Java:CVE-2013_0422-BG
Any ideas?
Same here, any help?
Please =)
its a security issue in java (the programming language the game was written in).
it only affects servers and not standalone apps, so its safe to ignore.
see https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/alert-cve-2013-0422.html
Oh thanks! I finally got round to researching this and found the same thing as you. Sorry about the alerts, I may try to include a different JRE at some point to avoid this.
no worries, thanks for making this awesome update!
always wanted it on iphone. :)
have you managed to build a java wrapper for ios or did you have to build it from the ground up?
so, does version 3.0 work on the itch.io release?
Instant buy on iOS for me...there goes all of my productivity! Thanks so much for this awesome game
Bought the game a year ago, I am a huge fan. Is there a way (on Mac) to activate my game on steam (I like the ease of checking for updates etc.) or am I stuck with adding it to steam as a non-steam game? Anyway absolutely love this game! One of the best Roguelites...

I also wonder if we will get a steam copy. I'd like to have all my games there if possible.
Per the FAQ on discord:
I'm unable to update, I'm getting a file location error. Also the game won't run anymore. This is on Windows 11. I'll try reinstalling. Yeah, it can't install after an uninstall, either. Same problem. Missing jre image or something.
I think it doesn’t work in the itch app atm, sorry. Try downloading the files on your browser?
I just tried the windows version on W11 and it looks to be running correctly and all my unlocks carried over. Maybe redownload?
On Windows, I had to download from a browser in order for the update to work and the game to run.
Any attempts at installing/updating/reinstalling through the itch app itself didn't work and rendered the game unplayable, but game is working via direct download.
This game continues to be very very good thank you for all your hard work <3
For those of us who bought on itch: will we eventually get a steam key for it as well or will we have to repurchase?
For what it's worth, I'm wondering the same!
will itch get ios?
The load of the achivements seems to not unlock the heroes
hi I just got it on steam and was wondering how will mods and modded characters work? Where there be a steam workshop for it or will we have to get mods thru a website

Can't waitt. One of my favourite games. Endlessly replayable
tick tock time's ticking
Will itch get 3.0 at the same time as it releases on Steam? (some time today?)
yes! in just around a measly 1 hour and 20 minutes it should be out
I’m curious if there will be any way to transfer your save/progress between devices. For me specifically, the Windows version over to the iOS version. But I’m sure others would be interested in getting their data over to Steam as well. If it’s not possible, that’s not the end of the world, but it would be cool
that is already possible
just click the book icon, go to stats and scroll all the way down. it's probably not being changed
hello tann. I bought this game on itch a long a time ago and im wondering will it get updated and i will get access to the latest version (i bought it for android) ?
In game update screen says that yes, update will be free for old user who bought from itch.io
The new update release the 20th this month.

Wait for the steam release. It'll be lower.

Wow! apparently I beat a deadline I didn't even know about when I finally got myself talked into buying my first game on itch.io.
First time I've done so, and making it in time is, a really nice feeling! I'm super happy that I stumbled upon tonehack's youtube channel last night!
Also, this is just a phenomenal game!
march 20th!!!
For us that have already bought the game, will we receive a steam copy of the game when it releases?
Fingers crossed the dev rewards the early adopters with a steam key to help the game grow even further
Unfortunately, when I try to redownload my purchase it keeps downloading the demo from my itch.io library. Is there a solution for this? I would like to play this again it's a great game.
I bought this here but would love to buy it again on Steam. :D
Really liked this game :D .
BTW can't run the Windows version after installing Java (x32 and 64 bits). Executing the game does nothing.
What version is required?
If you buy the android file on itch.io and you have the demo installed on you android device, made sure to uninstall the demo so the full game will work.
+1 for iOS! Hope there’s more development on the way, such a good game.
I just wish this was on Steam, because I`m to dumb for the payment on itch.io
looks like u got ur wish
didn`t even notice thank you!
The game is fun and highly addictive. There are also many different heroes to discover.
However, I have one question: Is it normal that there is no music in the game?
I think so. Usualy i just play some miusic i like in backgroundWell it didn't have it when i posted this coment. Now it has.
one of patch notes states the continued lack of music as a feature, so I'm pretty sure it's intended

Just needs some ambient background music. someone call blinch!
