A Game About Opening A Chest

Hi everyone!The Weapon Collection Book is here! You can now browse the weapons you’ve collected and see your progress by level and rarity. With so many weapons in the game, I hope it makes finding a new one a little more exciting and gives you another reason to revisit a level.I wanted to have this feature ready for launch, but it needed a little more time. I’m happy to finally share it with you!A note for returning players: if your save is from before this update, the Collection Book will start empty. The game didn’t previously record which individual weapons you had collected, so I can’t reliably add those past discoveries to the book. I’m sorry, especially if you’ve already found some particularly rare ones. Your completed levels and other saved progress are unaffected, and the weapons you collect from now on will be recorded, including when you replay levels you’ve already beaten.This update also fixes a few small bugs and adds some quality-of-life improvements. I’ve made Infernal weapons a little easier to obtain in some levels and made Level 1 slightly more forgiving. They’re modest changes, but I hope they make your runs feel smoother.Thank you for playing and for all your feedback. I hope you enjoy filling the book! ❤️

Thank you to everyone who has wishlisted the game, left feedback, and otherwise supported us along the way. It feels wonderful to finally share the game with you all!What is this game??A Game About Opening A Chest is an incremental roguelike split into 3 separate levels - each offering unique mechanics and challenges to overcome. Each level has an ever-rising gold requirement to meet, and you’ll need to experiment with different loot combinations to ensure you don’t come up short.It's likely not the type of "incremental" many of you are used to, as we are using the traditional definition that goes back to titans of the genre like Cookie Clicker and AdVenture Capitalist - rather than following the new-wave style of incrementals popularized by newer titles like Tower Wizard, Gnorp Apologue, and Shelldiver.We hope you all will all appreciate the unique mashup of incremental progression, big-number roguelikes, and strategic inventory management.
