An impressive doozy of an unwinnable #CobaltCore situation, if I don't say so myself.
• Yes, that's the final boss with three HP left, and my ship's cannon lined up with its weak point.
• Yes, that's me holding 10 identical non-attack cards, each of which adds a copy of itself to your hand when you play it.
• Yes, each such card has the "This stays in your hand if not played" modification on it.
• Yes, there is a 10-card hand limit.
Max seems like the weakest of the crew, with the weirdest deck, but he's so much fun to play when paired with the Tiderunner. His cards that pop off other cards based on their hand position also make the ship go sliding everywhere, and you can really turn that chaos to your advantage! On the other hand... this. #CobaltCore
Cool to see writeup on a game that's already on my wishlist, Cobalt Core. It's on Switch, I may grab it there. I can't speak to if I like it yet, but I'm guessing I probably will. The genre is "sci-fi roguelike deckbuilder", which sounds odd but check the screenshots at these links- I kinda get it. I think it looks great - I dig weird strategy stuff like this sometimes. Now I'm even more psyched to play it.
