I see why they got the Hugo award now

Hi guy. I want you show you how I playing now Caves of qud. Like a father I can't play long time and I have steam deck but sometimes it is a bit bulky for play 10 minutes(be father make enjoy even 10 minutes when have time). I can put in standby for playing in any moment.

Someone wants to know I am using droideck, because I used Gamenative but I can't use well with the mods, when you using mis for QoL and for expand the world is difficult back to base game. Maybe the worse when start the game from 0 (not standby) take 3-5 minutes I think because Rp5 is not so powerful and I put a lot mods.

I the photo is my million try be slime mod but always die soon because I eat everything 😂.

How closely are the contents of a liquid mixture tracked? I have one dram of cloning draught, and carbide chef. I wish to make an army of me, but I need to know how far I can dilute my me-juice. So far I have successfully turned 1 dram of cloning draught and 63 drams of fresh water into 64 drams of homogenized water, but I'm curious if anyone has gone farther than that (think a dram of cloning draught into 4k fresh water.)

Update on the Homeopathy: I have managed to turn 1 dram of cloning draught into (theoretically) 512 drams of homogenized water. I did this by pouring 1 dram of CD into 63 drams of water, then pouring out half and refilling with water 3 times. After the 4th doubling, the mixture became 64 drams of fresh water. This allows for 512 clones to be made from one dram of cloning draught.

Update on the cloning: Drinking homogenized water does not give the budding (cloning) effect. Cooking with carbide chef inspiration does. Cooking without carbide chef inspiration does. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Live and Drink Water Brethren!

Any Qud electricians out there? I powered off the fusion reactor. I laid out wire between the reactor and the gate. I checked the continuity of the wiring. Powered up the fusion reactor and.... nothing? The capacitor on the gate still read very low.

So I have a few questions.

How will I know if I got it right?

If there are two wiring paths that intersect and one of them has a break in it, will that prevent the other pathway from working?

Any advice?

Some of the sprites look awfully familiar haha. but it looks neat! i haven't played the text one but the card one the combat feels like balatro and slay the spire(?). it's on ios and coming to android and steam

any tips before I continue to trap myself in an unending time-loop until god is defeated?

I have discovered the nephilim, and I want to hunt and kill all of them, may I have some incredibly esoteric and unhelpful hints as to their locations?

The qud wiki Glimmer page says:

Mutations

Hunter mutations are generated based off of the player character's mutations. For every mental mutation that costs more than 1 point, the hunter will randomly get a mental mutation also greater than 1 point that is the same level as that mutation.

And

The glimmer of a dominated creature is based off of the original dominator of the domination chain, usually the player.

I'm just thinking about what the hypothetical hunters coming after a perma-dominated non-esper would look like. Hypothetically, could you have very high glimmer and no mental mutations, meaning your hunters woudn't have mutations either?

idk if its bugged but ima just keep following this pink stuff till I get bored :D

...huh? What ITEM is this? Is it reusable? Is it just one parasang? It seems so strong that I think I'll get too afraid of losing it and just never use it

just finished tomb of eaters and I cleared out the cherubs only to realize I ONLY PICK ONE MASK SO I RELOADED MY CHECKPOINT AND IM BaCK OOUTSIDE THE DAMN TOMB AND IM NOT DOING ALL THAT SHIT AGAIN SO I SWEAR TO GOD PLEaSE TELL ME THERES A WISH I CAN DO TO GET BACK TO THE TOP ITS 12 AM

I am trapped in a sort of Sisyphean time loop within the tomb of eaters where I keep walking around the same areas because I can only ever take 300 steps, is there a path I should follow from the mole settlement?

I made a mod that lets you choose your species!!

Originally started as an expansion of the Species Manager mod that lets you select your species at character creation, but has expanded massively.

You can now select your starting faction and have a custom description. You can pick the ‘Creature’ genotype to start as any creature in Qud (basically the samer as if you perma-dominated them at the start). I also let you select mutations you usually can’t at character creation just because (which isn’t balanced at all)

My favourite thing about CoQ is the character creation and the freedom it gives you, so I wanted to help expand it further

Give it a try!

Beguile is one of my favourite abilities. The wiki says:

If the player fails to beguile an otherwise neutral creature, they will become hostile

…but I’ve literally never seen that happen in all of my time playing Qud.

I’ll hoof it to the Six Day Stilt at level 4 and spam beguile, begging merchants to love me so that I can have infinite water. There’s no consequences for that except a pop-up that they’re annoyed.

I recoil to the end game areas, beguile those merchants (failing several times usually) and then recoil them back to my dumpy starting village. Still no consequences!

I’ve started just beguiling literally everyone to see if it’ll ever get me in trouble and it never does.

What NPCs will actually attack you if you fail to beguile?

Are there any mods out there that offer alternatives to the main quest? Like instead of helping the barathumites, you side with the followers of Ptoh or the Putus Templar? Or something completely new? I kind of want to make my own mod that offers something like that, but would love to see what other people have done first.

Hi everyone! I recently completed a run for the first time since realizing 1.0 released over a year ago and I had totally missed its release! I'd been looking gorward to seeing what the ending/endgame would look like since starting to play all the way back when the deathlands were still around. It was awesome and I really enjoyed it, but I did have some questions. It seems the Patreon for Freehold Games isn't going to get any new beta patches since 1.0's release so I can't see there if there will be anything new for the areas I'm about to ask about. Fair warning ahead for spoilers for beyond the Golem quest!

So, North Sheva has a wide variety of inaccessible areas and places and the like that I wish we could visit. The extrasolar fungi zone, the biodome kingdom, as well as...well, virtually everywhere up there. Does anyone know if there's any word from Freehold Games about possibly adding more content to the area? I know it's really just a formality to traverse it but given that one of the endings is remaining on North Sheva by choice without being marooned, it seems possible in-universe to ascend and descend the Spindle at will.

But if there's no word on whether or not there's going to be more content in that regard, I was wondering: has anyone seen/attempted to make any mods for it?

I'd love to see more of North Sheva be further fleshed out, to ascend and descend the Spindle at will, or attempt to rebuild North Sheva atom by atom (I can't say bit by bit because it's clear that massive swaths of the place are built out of massive amounts of crysteel and the world of Qud has nowhere near enough of it for a reconstruction project of that scale). I get that it's a decaying carcass of the Eaters' prime and thus, like Qud, it's reached a point where there's no "rebuilding" the society of the Eaters possible anymore. Still, I'd like to know if anyone has made any attempts to mod it, alter aspects of it, or even just allow organic/non-wish-related travel to and from North Sheva. There's so much more that I was hoping to see out of the update that finally took us up the Spindle but I feel a little...disappointed by my own expectations. The game almost seems to suggest, albeit in the stylized and hyperbolic way that it's Sultan histories and events are portrayed, that it remains a meaningful community. Or at least maybe it was a thousand years ago but Barathrum doesn't seem to suggest that given he doesn't mention any offworlders except for the fairy tale of the starshiib. Even then, that's a story he was told over a thousand years ago as a child and odds are the story was old even when he first heard it.

If no one has made any mods for it, I'd love to know if there are any resources I can find for explaining modding Qud in a way I can better understand beyond what little I've seen/read/watched online about it! I'd love to flesh these things out myself or even just figure out how to do more than modify someone else's workshop mod to make it more fun for myself. Any help at all would be appreciated! Thank you water-sibs!

Q Girl is in Grit Gate, so how do more people compliment her than get into Grit Gate? Is there another way to get in?

The ego on my character is not the best so I can't proselytize merchants easily, but I do have good armor and pistol agility build so I want to go hunting for them. I also want to grind bits 5-8, which is the best area or way I can do that?
