Very enjoyable playtest run. It's notable that when I look at the list of defeated cores at the bottom I can recall at least one interesting situation in every single level.
I should be able to update the playtest tomorrow. #NET_CRAWL

Every time I post a run result, I want to add that it was the most fun with the game I’ve had so far. Then I recognize it’s just recency bias and say nothing. So I won’t say it this time too… but gosh, do I feel it. #NET.CRAWL

It's a demo update season and that means I can play a full run for fun. It was a fun run indeed. #NET.CRAWL

Experimenting with adding control to node placements.
A lot of potential here. Including potential to waste insane amount of time on trying out silly things.

Playtesting tonight's demo Update. Didn't beat the final boss mostly because focused too much on the Aspects Matrix, which now allows buying up to 2 Aspects per visit (for 1 and 2 Crystals). #NET.CRAWL #indiedev

Goal for the next week: figure out what to do with this guy. It's obvious that it should move up, and then, maybe, reset. But it's unclear how to make it interactive, fun and flexible.

I know you're supposed to make a test run before you ship a new build to Steam, but we don't live in the ideal world.
Was a good run. v0.7.7 seems stable and I can relax. #NET.CRAWL #gamedev #indiedev

My latest playtest run. No major bugs and relatively small number of things that I would want to change. #NET.CRAWL

Stumbled upon the reference board from 2 years ago which I used to show the team how broad cybernetic theme can be. #Netrunner #NET.CRAWL

Completed a run. Caught one bug, one thing that's not a bug, one thing needs to be nerfed, and the economy is still out of whack. But it was a fun run. #NET.CRAWL

This is a funnel from our playtest with players from r/netrunner. We have a huge drop off at step 11. That's where the first tutorial run ends and you are returned to the main menu (at about ~12mins). Too many people think that they have seen enough, while they were only taught basics.

Gave up on the 5th try vs the final boss despite buffing one of the nodes mid run.

Completed a deep run. Citadel is probably OP even without 2x multiuse Aspect but I'm not going to nerf it because we're still in the honeymoon phase. #NET.CRAWL

Reworked levels with Motion Sensor and Speed Camera. The level where both Cores are present is a union of their single-core variants. #NET.CRAWL #indiedev

Just played a deep run. Failed the last boss. Apparently the game is very hard right now. It also throws NullRef at the end of the Deep Run. Will fix it later tonight. Making it easier will take much more time though.
