That game does seem a bit hard. Mostly since I don't really have any sort of methology. Most of my solutions seem to be brute forced.

StrixNebulosa posted:hexceed's first DLC is out, if you need more levels. I was kinda bored after the tutorial island, even though I was watching a movie during that. Honestly, I don't like that game and I played lots of hours of minesweeper and logged 328 hours on Demoncrawl. I guess a problem is that you can't chord, so it feels tedious to press on every single field.

Lost in Random is fun so far. The combat feels a bit janky, but it's something different and kinda fun. The world building is great and I really hear Ryan North's writing in some of those dialogues. And I tried the Tales of Arise demo and was just kinda unimpressed. It's pretty and all, but it seems to have the same weaknesses, which made Tales of Beseria feel like a grind, past some point. Maybe the demo is just bad, or your characters aren't leveled well for this point of the game, but the combat just felt boring for some reason.

StrixNebulosa posted:It's set in Canada? I thought it was a fantasy game? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Celeste The game makes a point that it's just real live Canada with a girl who has to get over some issues. Just that mountain is magical for whatever reason. StarkRavingMad posted:https://twitter.com/microtrailers/status/1453755673825656841?s=20 I just played the demo and it was really bland. The music seemed to be nice, but nothing of that demo hooked me at all and the plot was nonexistant. Just the most generic JRPG (with a sort of nice art style). Does the full game turn into something more than that? cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 15:17 on Oct 29, 2021 |

Lakbay posted:Has anyone done a few runs of this? I liked the demo but there's so many deck builder roguelikes Fights in Tight Spaces rules. It is a really nice mix between a tactics fighter and a deckbuilder. I am only on my second run, but I managed to beat the first four worlds. My favorite approach is to play it like Into the breach. Move enemies around to make them attack each other. And then throw them into a deathpit. Apparently I just sat on that game for 6 hours. It's been a while since a game grabbed me in such a way.

madfury posted:Has anyone played it? It screams everspace to me which I loved and it is a full game release (what ever that means nowadays) but it came out of nowhere for me. There are a few streamers playing it and it looks fine. And I get suspicious if everything looks legit.... Its not like 5 hours long, is it? I played the demo. It's really pretty and runs smoothly. But I absolutely suck at this type of game. I crashed my ship against the first encounter five times. I think, someone who has fun with flying games would enjoy it a lot. Hwurmp posted:https://store.steampowered.com/app/1579380/Shadow_Tactics_Blades_of_the_Shogun__Aikos_Choice/ I really want to hear impressions on this one. I liked the original a lot.

Play posted:https://store.steampowered.com/app/1432050/Nobody_Saves_the_World/ I am vaguely interested in this game. Any impressions so far? The steam page is a bit weird. There are mostly positive reviews but for some reason, Chinese people seem to really dislike it. 90 percent of the negativ reviews are in Chinese. According to my translator, they are mostly in agreement that it's a brush game? I am fairly sure that this is a direct translation of some term.

Since that has come up recently: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1591620/LaMulana_2_The_Tower_of_Oannes/ The DLC for La-Mulana 2 has randomly appeared without a real announcement today. Also, I finished Nobody saves the World. it was a nice game and all of the forms where fun to play. But ultimately you're not really doing a lot besides solving little miniquest to grind your skills. But that grinding was mostly short and kind of fun. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 14:32 on Jan 23, 2022 |

Oenis posted:I also picked that up and keep coming back to it. It's pretty addicting. I almost bounced off because I don't think the first form (rat) is a good showcase for the combat system, but as it opens up it gets better. I'm about halfway up the tree and there's a lot of stuff to mix and match and level up. Doing quests for forms is pretty fun and I'm not finding it very grindy, tasks can be done pretty quick and while playing, it just forces you to switch up your playstyle every now and then. Yeah, it's a smart system.. It also teaches absurd synergies. And sometimes there are just tasks with vague challenges where you have to figure out how to do that, rather than repeating a certain task a number of times.

Lakbay posted:I'm enjoying this from the little I've played but it has a limited save system (exactly like ink ribbons in Resident Evil) which might irk some people. I can't play a little bit and quit, I gotta commit to a session lest I use up one of my precious saves. I was interested in that game, but this really does irk me. People have stuff to do and might need to abort such a session. At least do thst thing where it saves on exiting and deletes that save the next time you play. Is there a good reason for that, or is it just to annoy me?

Angry Avocado posted:Will You Snail? This is kind of fun and relatively good. But I refunded it. I really do like precission platformers and this one even has secrets strewn in there. But there is one mayor flaw. There are random spikes popping up from the ground. You get a half second warning so you can dodge them, but depending on your luck, they might just be unavoidable. For example, if you doublejump past an obstacle and are falling down towards a singular safe space. If the RNG decides to spawn such a spike there while you fall towards it, all you can do is perish. It's always weird, when one little mechanic sort of ruins a game for me.

thecluckmeme posted:If you roll once and hold the button down, you sprint Yeah I know. But still. Maybe it will change as I progress, but I often feel like I react in time to avoid an attack, but get hit anyway, because the dodging feels slow. I guess it's mostly in my head, because the I-Frames come instantly. Something about the controls feels slow, but I can't put my finger on it. The exploration and map design are top notch though. And I really love how they handled the manual. Learning about obscure game mechanics by earning the relevant information is a fun design.

Apparently the developers of Aeterna Noctis, (which is a really great but tough Metroidvania with impressive visuals and music) made a prequel roguelike action platformer called Summun Aeterna which entered early access. Like the previous game it does look really pretty. If anyone tries it out, I'd like to hear your impressions. https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/256891532/movie480_vp9.webm?t=1655386817 No reviews yet. Either way, Aeterna Noctis is really good. probably among my favorite Metroidvanias.
