Yes, it does work. It also takes 100 shots.

Portal was great for how short it was because its gimmicks required speed. Dumping all the furniture in the acid was fun. Portal 2 felt like the opposite.

PLATFORMEBRUARY 2016 1. Cargo Commander 2. Freedom Planet 3. Capsized 4. Knytt Underground 5. Rochard 6. NightSky 7. Canyon Capers 8. Intrusion 2 9. Mutant Mudds Deluxe 10. Teslagrad 11. Tiny Barbarian DX 12. Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken 13. Snapshot 14. Lunnye Devitsy 15. Wake 16. Cast of the Seven Godsends 17. Nihilumbra 18. Akane the Kunoichi 19. Chaos Domain 20. Gateways 21. 6180 the moon It's easy to find no-effort platformers made from basic shapes, looking like a video game made by a five-year-old with refridgerator magnets. The danger here is that the challenges presented might have about as much thought put into them as the presentation. 6180 the moon might give that impression at first glance, but it turned out far more clever and engrossing than I expected. You play the moon, on a quest to find its eternal buddy, the sun. This journey takes you across fifty levels divided into five regions of the solar system, broken up by adorable little cutscenes with other heavenly bodies. The game's gimmick is that the screen wraps around the top, so if you plunge off the bottom you'll drop back in above. That means no bottomless pits to worry about, but the numerous spikes are more than happy to take their place. Your jump sends you a full screen height and change so there's nowhere on the screen that's unreachable, giving you very pleasant freedom of movement. Level gimmicks include spikes, moving platforms, breakaway blocks, spikes, switches and gates, spikes, and a few other not-spike features. Once you wrap your brain around wrapping around the screen the game goes quite smoothly, and you'll likely complete your sojourn to the sun in 30-40 minutes. This unlocks a new mode where you play through the levels in reverse, with gravity flipped, and this one little change blew my mind. The vast majority of the levels are completely unchanged, but become far move difficult because of their genius dual design. Playing through the first time was a subdued, relaxing experience, but playing through the second was a distinct pleasure. The whole game will take you just over an hour to complete, and there are no additional modes or corner-case achievents to chase, so it'll all be over before you know it. But the clever puzzles are truly a delight, accompanied with an excellent piano soundtrack and the aforementioned cutscenes that just ooze charm. It's a bite-sized puzzle platformer, but you're sure to relish it more than a lot of larger offerings.

God drat can the Steam queue try to get at least a little smarter please? I've already Xd every single stupid Naruto thing you've thrown at me including the first 18 movies and you just keep going. Though I do like seeing which of my "friends" added stuff to their wishlist so I can laugh when like half my list shows up on every hentai game that pops up.

So, has anyone else noticed that games take an absurd amount of time to idle cards for lately? I know Steam changed it so the devs can set the drop rates, but it feels like every single game requires 6-8 hours to get all the drops now, which is just dumb.

I tried the Talos Principle with high hopes but its one of those games that punishes trial and error experimentation by forcing you to go back to the beginning of a puzzle and redo all the easy stuff you've already figured out every time you screw up. Not fun.

SelenicMartian posted:Which part of TP involves that much trial and error? The puzzles where you had to slalom around the roaming mines after messing with their timing is one of those, at least. Generally, most puzzles are short enough that re-doing them isn't much work. (But gently caress that star in the center of the DLC world 2 where you have to set up things for 10 minutes then get one shot to fetch it)

Drakes posted:It's more the fans being the worst part of portal. Thankfully since it was a part of the Orange Box almost everybody played and enjoyed it at launch which meant that you had way less contrarian backlash than if it were an indie title that came out on its own and interest in it grew organically.

They should patch Portal again to update all the memes, like to "The dab is a lie" or something.

They should rewrite Portal so that instead of the main character being mute or whatever, she just never talks because she's busy vaping (the vape is a lie, obviously)

Bobby The Rookie posted:They should patch Portal again to update all the memes, like to "The dab is a lie" or something. The files for the game have a bunch of vintage 2007 memes in them. Which kind of makes the Portal devs complaining about all the memes that spawned from the game kind of ironic.

Stan Taylor posted:Portal actually owns and if you can't separate it from memes you are bad hth. What people can't separate are their lovely opinions from the quality of a game. Portal might not be a game you like, but it's got enough good qualities and attention to detail that it's hard to argue that it's an objectively 'bad game'. Leave it to goons to conflate the two, though.

It is an OK game. It is definitely going for the retro feel, possibly to excess. Kind of like how people feel about Wasteland 2. If you like that, you'll like it, if you don't, you'll hate it. You can claim it has some kind of "message" but I decided to just interpret it as comedy and intentionally flimsy plot. edit: the "plot" is basically that a dude says dumb sexist bullshit to the main character on space facebook or whatever and you go through several stages so you can kick him in the nuts Light Gun Man fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Feb 21, 2016 |

10m is more shallow compared to ymbab but it's definitely still worth a romp imo.
