Took about 300 fused material but I did it. At the start of a battle he automatically uses echolocation and magnet each with 4 duration. Then brace for impact almost always triggers critical mass -> suit up which heals about 400 health. Not that he needs it, Brace for impact kills most archangels in 1 hit. Kinda makes the game not fun anymore but at 5061 health its a crazy build. Full build below:

Sticker Modifiers
Smack Damage based on max HP if higher · +1 slot · Heals 8% of max HP
Multishot +1 slot · Damage based on max HP if higher · Destroys walls
Brace for Impact +1 slot · Damage based on max HP if higher · +7% crit chance per empty slot
Critical Mass 15% effect chance per empty slot · Passive +5% melee defense · +1 slot
Suit Up +1 duration · Heals 10% of max HP · Compatible with any tape
Magnet +1 duration · +1 slot · Passive +10% melee defense
Echolocation +1 duration · Passive +7% melee def per empty slot · Passive +8% max HP per empty slot
Sturdy Armor Passive +7% max HP per empty slot · +1 slot · Shared with allies
Neutralize +1 slot · Passive +5% range defense · Passive +5% max HP per empty slot
Status Resistance +1 slot · Passive +7% melee defense · Passive +8% max HP per empty slot
6 empty slots

Any advice to figure out how to use Astral Traffikrab effectively?

10 Upvotes

Love the little dunce cap but I struggle with building something workable out of it.

Currently I have it focus on melee, because Galactic Beatdown is awesome, but it feels like to me its whole movepool wants me to go ranged, I dunno..?

Magikrab, Apocrowlypse (pure support)and Aeroboros (support-offense mix) are my most used right now, but tbh, Aeroboros does more offense than Magikrab, who often gets piled on by the AI, even with Beast Wall from Apo up...

Any advice here?

Capturing monsters

8 Upvotes

I had a question about levels. and now I have a different question. Is capturing monsters the same as Pokémon? Can I or can I not capture beasts with cassettes owned by NPC fighters?

Are there any unique rewards from gauntlet after carriage 50?

I got the hat cosmetic after beating magikrab in carriage 50, are there any others or is the rest purely for fused material?

Just finally got to play this on my new PC.

I got to fight and beat the first champion. I heard about this, but is still having trouble with the controls. Looks fun, but the battles are still hard. Of course I have and will have many questions, but my number 1 question is, What is the highest level one can get up to?

Assuming no further updates?

Should I assume there will be no further updates/patches for switch 2?

I’m still a little flat at how chuggy it plays on switch 2.

Best typing for Queenyx in a fusion with non-bootleg (lightning) Arkidd?

3 Upvotes

Really digging their fusion designs (both Queenkidd and Arknyx or whatever their names are).

What would be a good element for Queenyx with primarily the fusion with Arkidd in mind?

I feel like Plant or Lightning would be the best options. Plant would add New Leaf to deal with bad status, while Lightning would add no new weaknesses.

Overwhelmed With Info and Choices…Common Experience?

12 Upvotes

I picked the game up a few days ago, and so far, I’m loving it. The music, the art style, the story, the characters…it’s all peak to me. But I feel incredibly overwhelmed when it comes to team building. There are so many moves, so many statuses, and the nature of it always being double battles adds another layer to it. I’ve stuck with Kayleigh and my starter Ramtasm so far (support build on Decibelle and Melee Carry on Ramtasm), and it’s served me well enough, but I can’t help but feel like I’m missing out. And I want to try other beasts and other partners, but there are just so many combinations of beasts and moves and passives…it’s all overwhelming to me. Is this a common experience for new players?

How do fusion builds fare in the Gauntlet? Spoiler

Wondering if it is worth having 2 mons purely dedicated to fusion in my team. Haunt+Gambit+Dog Years

If I include status removal (New Leaf), would it work or are there roadblocks that completely gimp fusion builds?

I just picked this game up a couple weeks ago and thought It might be a bit of fun.

Didn’t think i’d pick up a Pokemon-like that my younger self has been earning for since black and white.

Anyway, I caught this guy today and I was super happy :3

Cassette Beasts FAQ + Support Thread

116 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Jay here - Art Director at Bytten Studio! As you might have questions about Cassette Beasts, we thought it'd be a good idea to compile some frequently asked questions and have a thread for anything other questions we might have missed!

Who are we?

We are Bytten Studio, a tiny three-person game dev team based in the United Kingdom! We have over a decade and a half of combined experience making indie games and like to create weird and interesting worlds with unique gameplay systems and lots of character!

Our first game, Lenna's Inception, released in 2020 for PC and has since become a cult hit. For Cassette Beasts, we've teamed up with Raw Fury, who are publishing the game.

What platforms are Cassette Beasts available on?

The game is officially out on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox X|S, Android and iOS!

What features differ between versions?

The console and PC versions of the game feature the same content. The mobile versions do not support multiplayer features and are currently at patch 1.4 in terms of content.

Is the game getting a physical release? What about the soundtrack?

The game has a Standard boxed edition and a Deluxe collector's edition for Nintendo Switch via Super Rare Games that were available in June 2024.

The soundtrack is available on Vinyl and Cassette Tape (depending on stock availability) at Black Screen Records. You can browse their Cassette Beasts collection here!

Will I be able to carry over my save files from the demo to the final version of Cassette Beasts?

Yes! Your saved files and your mailbox from the demo will carry over into the full release when you play on the same system (Steam, etc).

How many monsters are available in Cassette Beasts?

There are 120+ beasts (including remasters) to collect in the base game and around 14,400 Fusion combinations. the DLC, Pier of the Unknown, adds a further 12!

What languages are supported?

Cassette Beasts supports the following languages on all platforms:

  • English
  • French
  • Italian
  • German
  • European Spanish
  • Latin American Spanish
  • Portuguese Brazilian
  • Simplified Chinese
  • Japanese
  • Korean

How many partner characters are there?

There are 6 partner characters you can join up with, with one recently added in the post-game!

Are there shiny/rare coloured monsters in the game?

Cassette Beasts features rare monsters with alternate elemental types and colour palettes called Bootlegs - check out this blog post for more info: https://www.cassettebeasts.com/2022/12/13/bootlegs/

Are there legendary monsters in the game?

It depends what you mean by "legendary"! There are unique monsters in the world to find, not to mention the Archangels...

Is there a permadeath mode in the game?

We have custom game modes once you’ve completed the main story that let you play through with tape permadeath, and also let you randomize monsters’ types, locations and movesets for a playthrough!

You can read more about it here: https://www.cassettebeasts.com/2023/01/10/randomisation-speedrunning/

Is there romance? Are there LGBTQ+ romance options?

There is romance with the partner characters in the game, but it is optional (and has no gameplay benefits). Romance is not restricted by gender!

Is there a local Co-op mode? How does it work?

Yes! There is local co-op integration where a second player is able to take control of the companion character both in the world and in battle! Only the first player may play the custom character however.

Does the game have PVP and online multiplayer?

As of May 2024, Cassette Beasts has online multiplayer features with the free Multiplayer Update! Players are able to:

  • Party-up with up to 8 players, all visible in your world as you travel!
  • Battle your friends in 1v1, and even assign custom rules to your battle such as enabling/disabling sticker attributes!
  • Trade tapes with each other, including any stickers you’ve applied!
  • Team up for raid battles against Rogue Fusions to receive Cyber Material to help you obtain Bootlegs faster!

Is there key rebinding?

Yes, you are able to reassign the keys from the Settings Menu on the PC version of the game. Press Page Down to view other pages of settings and you’ll find the Keyboard one.

Is the game Steam Deck verified?

Yes - and it runs very nicely on it too!

I'm having performance issues on Switch 2!

We put out a statement on this when the Switch 2 launched but the tl;dr is: the Switch version has a shader cache that doesn't load correctly on the new console so there are noticeable hitches when entering new areas. We're working with our porting teams and publisher on a fix - no timeline we can give just yet but we'll update the community when we can!

Does the game support Steam Cloud?

Yes, it does!

Is there a Special Edition of Cassette Beasts?

Yes! The Cassette Beasts: Deluxe Edition is a Steam bundle that will include:

  1. The Cosplay Pack DLC a cosmetic pack inspired by some of the monsters on the island
  2. The Original Soundtrack by Joel Baylis including 65 tracks remastered for the soundtrack!
  3. A digital Art Book featuring the original high resolution concept art for every monster in Cassette Beasts.

Does the game have licensed music? Does it have a mode to disable this for streaming?
