It seems that the devs are focusing on finishing the game, getting it out of early access, for windows and once that's done they might release a macOS version. But this will likely not come about anytime soon, at least not within this year since the game has already been worked on for at least 5 years yet it's still in early access.
When I saw how it looks, I was thinking "it looks way too good to be true, there's no way they will deliver a complete, consistent thing". Then I saw you are the same developer that created some of my all-time favorite puzzle games (I had no idea it was the same developer all along but I am not surprised now). Thanks for making awesome games, and thanks for publishing it to my favorite game store.
can you create a discord server, the game is incredible (i have it on steam) and i'd very much like to easily ask questions i can't get my novice head round, also i'd like to be able to interact with you awesome devs :)
I very much enjoy the mechanics here. I understand it's early access, but I would prefer more early game start stuff, maybe a bit of a survival/story, too? Still, great game.
I also decided to try this from my notebook which has Intel i3-8130u processor, instead of the Steam's minimum i5; it still works perfectly!
There is a story, its just a bit hidden, you need to complete the game through both means to understand the story as its almost entirely contained on the emerald tablets hidden around the world
giving you more in the start would be pointless. If you really want more stuff in the start, beat the game then try nightmare mode. They give you ewe and three other perks, plus three random teir 1-2 wands!
Hello, I am a Chinese game industry worker. I am also a fan of your game. Are you interested in bringing your work to China and letting more Chinese players experience it? If you have this need, you can leave me a contact information. Our profession is to release games.
I love this game, it may be a simple concept, but it's executed so well!!
The game is beautiful to look at, the rendering of the pixel physics in real time make this a true feast for the eyes and the game play is fast, frantic and somewhat rewardingly addictive!!
If you like roguelikes and pixel platformers then you won't go far wrong with this one...
If your looking to buy the Steam version, don't make the same mistake I did. This version does not come with a Steam key. It's DRM free. If you want the Steam version, it can be found here:
Well yeah, itch isn't steam, the game's page said nothing about giving you a steam key. This is a different store. In any other storefront it would be considered strange to comment on something to tell people to buy it somewhere else. How come this is deemed reasonable by players on itch?
You must be bored to go necroposting on something people said almost a year ago, and actually asked quite often back then. When I made the post a while back, I purchased many a title. Most said nothing about steam keys, yet they did end up coming with one, which by the way, I did in fact get. My post was not a complaint or rant, it was just a comment to answer what many asked before me but got no reply. I myself prefer drm free, if it can be helped, though I do look for dual packs for titles that are multi player, or might have multiplayer in the future since half the multi player titles out there wont let both steam and non steam players play on same server, unless both versions are owned. Starbound is one of them. Was only last year I found out that the server version for Steam would not allow certain mods, yet their clients did. Using the non steam server, both steam and non steam players can play on one server, and with all the mods as well.
Someone replied to another comment i made on here so I found myself looking at the other comments. call it "necro posting" but people continue to post about steam on itch like this, and Noita is releasing proper real soon, so theres a lot of people looking at these comments now comparatively. Less than a year is a very short time in the grand scheme of htings.
Bottom line is, people should stop expecting that games you purchase on itch come with steam keys. This is a different store. Just like it would be ridiculous to comment on a PS4 release and say "just so you know, it doesn't come with a copy of the xbox version. If you want the xbox version go to the xbox store here: [link to game on xbox store]" It doesn't make sense to expect this. It is also not even close to universally true that multiplayer games on steam don't share servers with DRM free releases etc.
my only criticism of this game is that i think it tries too hard to be difficult for its own sake. but that is a minor complaint when considering how much ass this game whips. the spell system gives you a ton of creativity and flexibility and the physics simulation will blow your mind constantly. love the soundtrack too.
Once you get used to the mechanics, only a few of the bosses are a consistent challenge. It becomes much easier as you play more. Nightmare mode? Thats a different story lol.
The experience so far can't be expressed with much words. It has been a frabjous experience to get Early Access(Humble Bundle) to this game. Having seen this game through all Updates, Patches and Bug Fixes for over 2-3 Weeks, all I want to say is the team is working very hard and it pleases as a member of the Gaming Community to see such passion. Thanks for this piece of awesome content.
I purchased it anyway. Hope there is a key for it later. Sadly, cant play this till tomorrow =( Im already dying for my Noita fix, and haven't even played the bloody game yet!!! Life is so cruel (Including the cereal box when its empty)
No, not at all. This price is actually really cheap for what you're getting. If you're unsure on the game, there are people streaming it right now. It's really fun.
Probably too low. Games shouldn't be priced under $20, it's a shame that game makers have to do that to comply with expectations set by a terrible culture created by mobile stores and constant discounts.
To be fair, that's less the effect of a race to the bottom and more the explosion of options in recent years, weighed against a game's complexity, potential spectrum of appeal, replayability, and the finite capacity of the public's bank accounts. After playing it, I can only liken it to TowerClimb; a similarly impressive low-priced roguelite pixel-based labor of love with an incomprehensibly high difficulty curve that, at present, is going to ultimately limit its potential audience.
I thought so too at first, but I literally play it every day before and after work. I love it! Totally worth it! Unlike my purchase of Blasphemous on the PS4, that game looks great but boring as hell.
I'm pretty sure the text below the "Buy Now" button is autogenerated, if it doesn't mention "your purchase also comes with a Steam key" then you're out of luck. Presently you can get the DRM-free and Steam key combo if you get it from the Humble Store, though.
Good to know. I remember that Dicey Dungeons didn't give a Steam key till it left early access, and then sent everybody one. That was nice. I'd like to support Noita on Itch to make sure the devs get the best cut of the sale. I'll probably do that ANYWAY, but an eventual Steam key would be good to have.
First of all, thanks for releasing on Itch! That means a lot to me!
I've only played for 37 minutes, but I want to share a few things:
-This game is AMAZING. I love, love, love it so much. There's too many things about it that I'm really enjoying to list here.
-Every time I play a new game, all of the stats reset, which is kind of a bummer, but I understand it's Early Access (O: (I'm using the Itch app, btw)
-The teleporter perk is really, really chaotic and I love it. It also clipped me into the perks room, inside a wall. Sadly my screenshot didn't save, but I'm not sure if that was intentional or not? I got out with a bomb wand, though that may have been because the explosion damaged me and activated the teleportation. Not sure.
-This is probably the first game I purchased as soon as I possibly could (since my PS2 days), and it's been totally worth the wait!
I meant that I break all of my records every time I start a new game, and the death count is always 1. Whenever I click New Game, the application shuts down and restarts.
Good work, I am waiting for this awesome game half year. Finally its ready to be released. I have wishlisted it on Steam. Definitely buying after first release ;)

Is there going to be a macOS build?
It seems that the devs are focusing on finishing the game, getting it out of early access, for windows and once that's done they might release a macOS version. But this will likely not come about anytime soon, at least not within this year since the game has already been worked on for at least 5 years yet it's still in early access.
This game is incredible. If you’re even just considering then go buy it! We covered a run on the itch.io YouTube anyone is curious for raw gameplay:
When I saw how it looks, I was thinking "it looks way too good to be true, there's no way they will deliver a complete, consistent thing". Then I saw you are the same developer that created some of my all-time favorite puzzle games (I had no idea it was the same developer all along but I am not surprised now).

This game looks so amazing!!
i bought this on steam and its awesome hard but awesome everybody who likes terraria need to try this

Why is this downvoted so heavily?
Amazing XD
Do you think this turtle game would have any appeal in China? https://jagames.itch.io/shell-kingdom
I'm sorry that I personally found the game very interesting, but I think the appeal in China is average
您好，我是中国游戏行业的工作者。我也是您的游戏迷。您是否有兴趣将自己的作品带到中国，让更多的中国玩家体验呢？如果您有此需要，可以给我留下联系方式。我们的专业是发布游戏。
I love this game, it may be a simple concept, but it's executed so well!!

If you like roguelikes and pixel platformers then you won't go far wrong with this one...
Go and check it out!!
Hey, how can I update the game without losing my progression? (and without steam)...
use the itch.io app
If your looking to buy the Steam version, don't make the same mistake I did. This version does not come with a Steam key. It's DRM free. If you want the Steam version, it can be found here:
Steam Version of Noita
It was quite obvious from the beginning that it is only DRM free version. :) Screw Steam! :D
Well yeah, itch isn't steam, the game's page said nothing about giving you a steam key. This is a different store. In any other storefront it would be considered strange to comment on something to tell people to buy it somewhere else. How come this is deemed reasonable by players on itch?

awsome game!
Fantastic game. I love how dedicated the dev team is.
Now all I need to do is actually become good at this game!
The experience so far can't be expressed with much words. It has been a frabjous experience to get Early Access(Humble Bundle) to this game. Having seen this game through all Updates, Patches and Bug Fixes for over 2-3 Weeks, all I want to say is the team is working very hard and it pleases as a member of the Gaming Community to see such passion.

Is there a linux version planned?
Mac version
Works on mxLinux with Proton 4.11
I like it very much (bought), however the speed varies wildly for my machine, could you optimize it further?
any way to play on the beta branch like steam users?
If this comes with a key, it helps to advertise it. Thats the only thing holding me back from contributing.
I purchased it anyway. Hope there is a key for it later. Sadly, cant play this till tomorrow =( Im already dying for my Noita fix, and haven't even played the bloody game yet!!! Life is so cruel (Including the cereal box when its empty)
Why are you so desperate for a steam key? Buying the game here gives you the ability to play it just as well and keep it up to date etc?
Go figure. Games actually released on Steam already. Ooopps
I think they are attached to the backgroud wall.
the name means a witch. k bye
Congratulations on the release! :) I've been following this project for ages!
Congrats on the release!! Would love to see macOS support for this :)
Seconded!
Thirded
Fourthed? Yeah, Fourthed!
Fifthed!
Sixthed!
WHOA!
wish I could buy it.
I really hope you consider supporting Linux, I'm really eager to play this!
Ditto.
Is not the price too high ?
No, not at all. This price is actually really cheap for what you're getting. If you're unsure on the game, there are people streaming it right now. It's really fun.
yeah the game looks very neat and polished cant wait to buy it when I get the money
Probably too low. Games shouldn't be priced under $20, it's a shame that game makers have to do that to comply with expectations set by a terrible culture created by mobile stores and constant discounts.

MacOS users are people too...
Not according to Apple, the last few years!
Yayy! Finally :D
🐧 Linux version pleasee 🐧
🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧
Awsome, have to check it out!
You can also put your bicycle in your car ;)
Also requesting a native GNU/Linux version. Cheers, the game is looking wonderful!
THE TERRARIA WE WANTED
EXACTLY!
If I buy this on Itch, do I also get a Steam key by any chance?
I'm pretty sure the text below the "Buy Now" button is autogenerated, if it doesn't mention "your purchase also comes with a Steam key" then you're out of luck. Presently you can get the DRM-free and Steam key combo if you get it from the Humble Store, though.

yeah im with you. clicking the buy button now :)
Trying to run the game on wine, no luck so far. Hope you have time for a linux release. Can't wait to play!
I had to install vcrun2013 using winetricks, otherwise as Alpha said, it works in proton.
Looking forward to a Linux release if you have the time. Thank you!
First of all, thanks for releasing on Itch! That means a lot to me!

Stats reset on death is because its a rogue-like not because of early access
I meant that I break all of my records every time I start a new game, and the death count is always 1. Whenever I click New Game, the application shuts down and restarts.
This bug has been fixed and progress should no longer reset upon death :)
Yes, I saw this! Thank you!
Looks very promising, going to buy this from Steam when it gets there. The game's itch.io listing for
Games > Action > Free
might be a bit misleading though.
Lol
MAC OS SUPPORT !!!! ASAP
This looks awesome, can't wait
you gonna get banned for spamming my friend
Good work, I am waiting for this awesome game half year. Finally its ready to be released. I have wishlisted it on Steam. Definitely buying after first release ;)
