what platformers have you been playing lately /v/?
could be 2d, 3d, retro, indie shit, etc.
pic related, growing to love this little game.
fuck yeah, dustforce is my jam
>>320065976
yeah, getting used to the controls but it's so dang creative and fun
>>320065836
Cave Story. It was okay.
Shovel Knight. It was excellent.
Gunman Clive 2. It was pretty good if a little too easy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJoTCrbg0c8
Next up, I've to play that DLC for Electronic Super Joy and then VVVVVV.
Maybe then I'll finally play Dustforce and La Mulana.
>>320066959
La Mulana is one of my favorite games ever. Definitely give it a try!
What are some good ones that haven't been mentioned yet?
>>320067659
Well which ones have you played? can give recs based on what you like
>>320067659
RUSH and EDGE are both pretty sweet games that very few people played
>>320068132
I'm >>320066959
I liked Electronic Super Joy base game too. And the bit trip runners if they count. I rarely dislike platformers other than LIMBO so just give any recommendations that maybe aren't obvious.
Rayman Origins/Legends are on the list too.
I've been playing Downwell. It's kind of like a faster paced version of Spelunky.
It's not bad but I think I still like SpelunkyHDbetter.
>>320068190
I'll put them on the wishlist and grab them cheap. Thanks!
>You will never be gud at Dustforce
>>320067659
Mibibli's Quest if you like mega man.
VVVVVV is so dang good
also Squirreltopia is worth a look
>>320065836
I recently played through Freedom Planet's hard mode with Lilac in anticipation for the upcoming Torque update that's coming out this month. It was pretty fun. And if it counts I also replayed the Indivisible prototype and got both secrets.
>>320073554
nice, i really can't wait for the update. we've been waiting for it forever it seems
>>320071560
Literally this, holy fuck, so good
>>320074271
yeah, i thought it was a gorgeous game, and the twirl/dash switching is so much fucking fun, plus those levels are pretty huge for a 2.D game. Hard as fuck to find all the gems in every level.
Only problem i have is the final boss is a little bullshit.
>>320074758
Yeah, the bosses weren't very fun in them, but the whole time I was playing I couldn't help but get nostalgia for the DKC series.
>>320075231
oh shit, that's a great comparison. just realized the twirl is basically copied from dk2
>>320065836
>>320065976
qt redhead is best duster. I really need to redownload dustforce
>>320065836
What is that artstyle even called?
>>320077928
Unique.
>>320078086
Thank
Do you guys prefer more exploratory platformers or momentum-based?
>>320065836
>tfw out of my trio of friends, I'm the only one who likes platformers like dustforce and cave story
it sucks, one is completely against anything 2D (especially anything actually retro or faux-retro), the other is a total casual and almost refuses to put practice into anything and will give up on anything that the first friend and I are better than him at (bar smash, the salt is delicious when I win though)
>>320078549
>momentum-based
what do you mean? Either way it depends, if I'm in a chill mood I'll play some exploration based platformers, and if I know my time is limited I'll play shit like Sanic and Dustforce where I can slam through a level or 2 in a few minutes
>>320078549
I like both.
>>320078838
>one is completely against anything 2D
Fucking scum.
>>320078838
Seems like your friends are retarded.
>>320079260
to me momentum based just means any platformer that rewards fast movement, and/or has slippery control. whereas exploration are like metroidvanias and shit
>>320079517
>>320079591
they're great guys, best friends anyone could ask for, just kinda shitty at games. I mean we all are, especially me, but still
Mr. No 2D is hilarious sometimes too, he loathes shit like the original Zelda and the Oracle games but loves Spirit Tracks and Tri Force Heroes (he makes an exception for 4 Swords because Co-op)
We tried to introduce Mr. Smash To MtG and he was all for it until he started losing his first match the it became, and I quote, "well this card game sucks because its pay to win"
>>320080083
Magic is kind of P2W, though. Good decks are always super expensive and if you're playing standard, you have to keep buying new decks over and over
N++ on PS4 is fun. Better than the original, but I think the levels are easier. Either that or it ramps up in difficulty really nicely, so I never noticed getting better.
>>320065836Does Uncharted count as a 3D platformer?
>>320080945
no dont desecrate the genre with that piece of shit
>>320081354
>Tfw you legit like series, but all of /v/ is retarded and thinks that Drake's Deception is represents the series as a whole
