Its just if I collect the relics then I have a massive corruption to level out which prevents us getting bac to the town. I dont want to take all the curses.
That's literally the main mechanic of the game. The entire game revolves around it.
Collect relics, "pay" for them with corruption via curses, sell them up top.
That's the game loop.

Don't just grab all the shit you see, grab like one or two lucrative relics, take a bigger curse on that level to even it out, and pick up curses on the levels leading back up.

Ok so, Layer 8 'A little Extra' curse seems to just BRICK the game no matter what you do, I'm not sure why?

Do the ending items in Nadir actually do anything yet? The Diamond seems to be completely unusable since it says that you need to spend a week on the surface, the Achivs tablet returns a bunch of errors for me and if I restart there's no NG+ it's just NG again.

Has anyone managed to beat the elder yet? Also i cant go forward when i have my limbs taken there's no hyper link or anything
I don't believe its intended to be defeated, The Elder seems more like an unknowable cosmic horror entity. Though I think getting in my mech with my flaming greatsword should just kill it anyway. (y)

Nah you definitely can. While I haven't done it (and just teleported to the last layer out of curiosity), the level afterwards is the final one that offers you a few end game choices. No curses or relics on that layer, but something of a "prestige" mode (if I read it correctly), and a choice between a few "yep I'm done" options.

Only way to "beat" it so far (and realistically ever) is to use Catastrophe while fighting it then come back with the phoenix obol. It leaves you alone after that, but you lose everything you had on you and all of your companions. Good luck making it back out without any equipment or food though.

There are a couple combinations of relics that can keep it off of you long enough to make it down without nuking everything

Hi, so I came back since layer 9 has been implemented and it appears that the "A Little Extra" curse breaks things for some reason

Also, here's the save. I debugged myself to layer 8 just to get the stuff.

Actually, using catastrophe just kills you. You're surrounded by water and catastrophe warms it up to the level of "I am now the sun."

Also, while I'm not sure how feasible it is to achieve without cheats, there are two relics on layer 9 that allow you to fend off the elder enough to make it to the end, and they are Starlit Conquest and Lifespanner. Admittedly, I don't know how much role the first one actually plays, but they allowed me to at least get to the end (especially the latter one).

I like the game, but I think that in each level there could be a camp or a tavern for adventurers, at least halfway through.
and it could also be much more, the picture is not enough..

Only just started playing this game, so I can't tell if I'm just dumb or doing something wrong.

Can you have sex with your companions?

Pretty much everything I wanted to say has already been said months ago.

Don't have particular reason to go deep other than meta reasons likes seeing more content. I can get money selling relics, but all I'm buying is things to get more relics to make more money.

There isn't much sense of discovery or exploration when every description tells me everything I need even when I don't have the book, and every thing is one click of a button away.

Relic descriptions are overly long and often convoluted, and most of them serve no purpose for exploration, eroticism or fluff. A lot of them feel like poor DnD fanfic written by someone on the spectrum, a lot of focus on the exact mechanics with no consideration for how it serves the fiction, or are OP objects that would revolutionize the world as we know it (free unlimited energy). Maybe there's stuff like cursed items you can't remove but if so I haven't seen any.
Why do I get a complete description of the relics before I even grabbed them? Why do some of them have a day cost but not others?

My character ended up with breasts bigger than their body while simultaneously being a 10 yo so sex crazed they can't go 5 minutes without it, but somehow that had 0 impacts on my exploration and the only impact on NPCs was one guy mistaking me for a kid.
The curses seem to be more fluff than anything at the moment, when you even get fluff. You'd think that age would change your carry weight at least.

Curses aren't balanced around the layer depth enough, you can take some curses early on that should have a high impact on your adventure, but you have to go multiple layers deep for... prominent fangs?

Some interactions aren't clear on how they work, mostly gathering supplies. You can click on things but unless the numbers go up on the side you can't tell if anything happened.

I also had text conflicts on whether my character was male / female. Appearance said I had an androgynous face or figure, was occasionally referred to as a male, but at the same time my character was cursed to be half naked with giant boobs and had female bits.

Lots of work before this becomes at least an MVP.

Did anyone get here?
I think I killed the Elder or at least caused enough damage to not be bothered again

I got there too. From what I can tell, the elder will be bothering you as long as you are in the lowest layer and aren't in that place. Congratulations.
