What do you /v/irgins think? I would never have bought it if I would have known about the inexcusable 30fps lock, but there's too much about it I enjoy to get a refund.
>>332953572
No we don't want to buy your game, now fuck off.
>>332953572
This is a pretty shilly thread.
I mean, I like the game and all, but previous threads weren't this shilly.
Plz go.
>>332953646
What are you talking about, faggot? I wouldn't even recommend buying it. Didn't you read the 'never would have bought it' part?
Reminder that Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian are in the game credits and the main coder is a massive vocal SJW faggot on twitter.

I don't really care about their politics, but gross. They'll probably get torn into by SJWs at some point though. This game has a male main character.
>>332953646
>>332953735
Don't listen to these faggots.
Great game, good controls, good overall design, lots of attention to detail.
It has some interesting boss fights and music though.
>>332954016
Don't, under any circumstances, buy it. I got rused, and I have too much hipster faggot in me to ask for my money back. That's all I'm saying.
At least wait until they get off their fucking asses and rebuild it to run at a decent frame rate.
>>332954017
>Giving a fuck about the credits in a game
>Not showing any empathy towards the creator's disability and inspiration for the game instead
Fucking neo-/v/ is real.
there's a pretty good community on /vg/ for this atm (which will last for another 15 minutes til everyone 100% the game) but its been fun trying to figure out every nook and cranny
>>332954182
I don't know shit about the creator and didn't know anything about his game until a few days ago when I saw it and thought it looked amazing. I don't care if he has a disability, I'm not going to wear kid gloves because of that. His game runs at an unacceptable frame rate.
>>332954026
It's a pretty good game, but...
>music
You know what? The trailer music was fucking fantastic.
But the rest of the game music was pretty average. Not bad, even good, but it wasn't up to par with the trailer music at all. I expected 10/10 music, but instead I got 7-8/10 music.
It's cause Baths did the trailer music, and Disasterpiece did the rest of it. That's probably the thing that disappoints me the most about this game.
The thing that infuriates me the most is the fucking "hug the wall" secrets. That's not fun or intuitive or good design. Fuck, having a few in the game is fine - but having literally 3/4's of the game's secrets be this is not fucking good.
>>332954149
>$17 is too much for me.
Nigger that's like half a tank of gas or a week's worth of bus-fare.
It has more attention to detail than most of the triple a shit that's been popping out.
Buy the gog version if you're going to complain about getting fucked by DRM.
>>332954456
OP HERE, I SEE THAT THE SHILLING IS REAL
>>332954439
You do realize the game had to get rushed due to his heart condition...right?
You do realize that couldn't be implemented in the time-frame he had...right?
>>332954676
Yeah that sounds like the kind of shit SJWs force out before they beg for shekels
I would play it but either the screen goes black or the game crashes when I try to start the game.
So fuck your pixel shit I guess.
>>332953572
Kickstarted it years ago because it looked neat and forgot about it until I got the code in my email.
Its meh. The combat is really simplistic but all the visual effects make it look really fucking busy (the dash doesn't need all those damn shadow images, it just makes it a little harder to see your character. Should have saved that effect for the chain dash). The art constantly shifts between bad and decent, with decent looking nice and bad actually hindering gameplay because it can be hard to tell whats a wall, whats a path, and what is just background fluff.
The best part about this game is the sound design, both how it sounds and how the music is affected by what part of the level you're in.
>>332954587
This is why steam has refunds you assblasted faggot.
I had to refund it because of the black screen bug. Today's patch didn't fix it.
>>332954439
>creator/lead could die at literally any moment
>push game out now or die and hope the team still does an ok job eventually
nigger, what are you even doing?
>>332954676
Wait what's this about a heart condition? Is he dying or something?
>>332954825
I was horrified by the furfaggotry. That shit along with the god awful frame rate brought me right to the edge of refunding it, but I love the world and I love the colors, so I just couldn't quite do it.
Like I said, I've got too much hipster faggot left in me.
>>332954182Unless a particular member on the staff has a reputation for success (See Hideo Kojima) you arent selling the dev team. You're selling a product to be consumed by people who couldn't really give two shits about who made the game as long as they enjoy it. Same reason you don't see credits on everything else you buy like tires or sandwiches.
I don't care if my Big Mac was made by Jamal Johnson, or Adolf-goddamn-Hitler as long as they remembered to not put any fucking lettuce on it.
>>332954847
Explained why I wasn't doing that.
>>332954891
I don't care. Means nothing to me when it comes to the game. Did the faggot die yet? Can we start up the ovens?
I refunded it because it was too damn slow-paced. In a good action RPG there would be some sort of variety in the gameplay other than new enemies that require new strategies, but I guess it isn't a good game.
this thread is a trainwreck.
anyway, the game itself is really good. kind of like an top-down zelda with deeper combat. and some metroidvania-like design here and there.
>>332954996
well there's an entire area where the furries get skinned and murdered so there's that

You can access the upgrades in town at literally any time.

In all seriousness though, I can't progress due to a bug and I need the update. How do I get it?
>>332955696
It's got 'rpg elements' like every other fucking game that has raped the shit out of the idea of the rpg as a genre because you collect the little microchips and buy upgrades with them.
is this game playable with m+k?
>>332955808
buy the game or wait until someone makes a torrent of it
So about how long is this shit? if its long enough ill buy it right now
>>332955823

It's better with M+KB because you can aim while moving properly .
>>332955808
i heard you can get all the updates pretty easily bybuying the game

There are upgrades locked behind a progressions system.

I should have gone north like the game suggested but goddamn that was satisfying
It's a fun game but it's too expensive.
>>332957887
Alright thanks.
Have a nice day Anon.
>>332957905
this is kinda bullshit since the titans are shown to be alive during a war in the past in which they crystallize as an attack, not some 'tainted' shit from the corruption
>>332957923
when did the game suggest you go anywhere? I randomly decided to go west first
>>332958752
Your hint is to follow the dog in the center of town, who always goes East and then goes off screen.
>>332958752
the reason i went top first is because of the legend in your house
>>332953794
Anon, I know this is hard to comprehend, but Zoe and Anita are free to back games they're interested in.
They probably even enjoy some video games that you also enjoy. Can you handle that?
>>332958752
The dog's the focus of the camera when you enter the town for a second, and then he runs east. It's pretty apparent you're supposed to go east first.
>>332958752
Did you not see the dog?
You're free to ignore him if you want, I did and went west, but East was obviously the first intended path
>>332959235
So this game is like Dark Souls?
So what are the monoliths for?
Not the ones that open the final boss door, the ones that a weird guy appear next to it when you use them.
It's very clunky and the secrets are poorly hidden. All around I give it a 3/10
>>332954676
I don't care
Actual question about the game:
I heard Challenge Mode wasn't cut. What's it like and how do you access it? This is a pretty good switch-upon-death couch game with friends, but I'd like to run gauntlets instead of wasting time hugging walls for obscure secrets.
>>332957905
Sounds unwhelming.
>>332954182
>Not showing any empathy towards the creator's disability and inspiration for the game instead
Why am i required to know about the creator's personal life? Fuck that noise.
>>332954676
>game had to get rushed
I didn't follow the KS but wasn't it 2.5 years LATE?
>>332959902
there's a door in town that requires 12 keys. the challenge mode is like a training hall inside there
It's still pretty buggy, and there are a ton of really bad design decisions (the respawn animation, some really awkward platforms and pointless dead ends all throughout the game, several parts where you have to fuck with perspective to make shit work, etc.)
The color palette is really cool, but the shit lighting and shadows take a lot away from it.
The music is so-so. It fits, but there's some bad mixing and some of the ambience is a bit too sparse, even for low-action sections.
The game is so short, the story does a pretty shit attempt at show vs. tell, there's so much content cut out from the final release, and it just feels like they didn't think about the scope of their game before fucking making it.
>>332954676
>...
>...
>Shilling
Fuck off
>>332953572
6 hours in, I've beaten 2 bosses, found 5 keys and 4 monoliths.
I like the combat puzzles with the shifting rooms. The bosses can be a huge difficulty spike, though. I've just beaten the western boss. Eastern boss was a pushover.
>>332959486
if you go back to the tutorial area (secret path in the north area) then there's a room where the monoliths light up on the wall. they form a cipher that tells some of the gameworld's history
So now after the dust has settled. /v/ was once again right about a game. Hyper Light Drifter is the SJW indie pixel pile of shit game pandering to furrys that we all expected. Its just a huge EVA ripoff.
I just want to thank my homies from the last days who united with me and backed up against the SJW shill propaganda.
keep up the good fight and take care of yourself. The indie developer warchest is huge granted by jewmoney from kikestarter so the Shills are everywhere and everyone. Dont trust anyone even yourself.
>>332953794
is this true?
I was thinking about buying the game, but i don't want to give money to a SJW.
>>332954456
its not that I can't afford it, its that I'd rather spend that money on more important things like weed
Did they ask Fromsoft if it was okay to use Gywnn?
>>332960829
how does it pander to furries?
>>332960662
Eh, really, your gameplay complaints are just nitpicks. Respawn animation? Really? It's still well balanced and challenging, they put thought into the non-linear progression.
I don't think "better" lighting and shadows would add much; this is still hands down the most gorgoeus game of 2016 thus far. Music is too subjective for me to address that point, but I like the ambience and am planning on listening to the full OST.
I think they did well with the "show vs tell" given all of the interpretations cropping up that are all convincing.
>>332961004
Degenerate
>>332961024
That nigga is a crystallized oriental wolf king with a rusty pool noodle and a gun.Also much harder than Gwyn.
How much damage does the sword charge attack do and what's the health item do?
>>332961347
Forgot image. This game's world is beautiful.
>>332960752
I found the western boss to be the hardest
Eastern was the easiest
So the rest are within that range
>>332961351
there's that word again, back to your containment board
>>332961415
a lot, I think like 5, it can kill the western 5 health samurais in 1 hit. also a nice wide and far arc. defo a must have with chain dashing. the health item gives u 1 more storage for health recharge.
I'm a retard. I got all 8 pieces for the east but forgot where the door is. Can someone help me out?
>>332961483
Nice, but you are still a degenerate who is even worse than the normal degenerate.
you don't even grow your own.
So on top of being a degenerate you are too stupid to save money because you are too much of a pussy.
>>332958935
They aren't just backer credits. They are special thanks separately. Hell, they may not have even backed it. Phil Fish was also thanked.
>>332961893
>Phil Fish was also thanked.
lol that's even worse
Maybe Im just bad at it but the dash strike feels like it fails a lot, and not because of lack of energy/stam/whatever the bar is called
anybody know if its possible to bind it to something like alt?
>>332960774
I can't find that place
>>332961347
Not the anon you responded to, but I'd say respawn animation isn't a nitpicking complaint. The rest of the game, especially while exploring and killing, is pretty fluid, and reacts as fast as you can (as far as 30fps is capable anyway). Respawn animation is an uncomfortable break in the game's flow. It's a neat little animation for sure, but past the first few times you never really stop and go "Wow, look at that guy get up like a champ!" instead you just wish pushing start would skip it.
How do you get past those blocks with the arrows on them? There's a couple blocking my way in a cave in the north with what sounds like some big monster stomping around
>>332962248
You need to beat the Boss first. Then those blocks disappear.
>>332955047
>eating a sandwich without lettuce
what
>>332962227
you can actually use your sit animation to skip it
>>332961893
Kanye West was also thanked, so I thought the thank you list must have been some kind of joke.
>>332961567
thanks man
>>332961347
The respawn takes control from the player for far too long in a game where you're likely to be dying pretty often.
Music is subjective, yeah, but it feels like the composer phoned it in for several of the non-boss tracks. I've done similar shit when I had bad time constraints.
>>332962336
>not enjoying a plain all-American bologna or ham and cheese sandwich
>>332961893

>>332954947
I used to keep track of updates in the beginning, but yes. The MC of the game is somewhat of a self-insert of the creator, the creator has some bad health problems and he might die, so he created MC the same way.

Do you idiots even understand what a furry is?
Furry is a term for the real life faggots who dress up in their disgusting cartoonish fursuits and sexualize the hell out of it.
Just because there are samurai and ninjas that happen to be dogs and frogs in this game, doesn't mean that it's pandering to furfags or has anything to do with them at all. They are just whimsical characters in a fantasy world.
>>332963014
>Has some furry garbage
Did you even fucking play the game or are you just nitpicking
Who white master race in here?
How the fuck do you read the map?
Only thing I've figured out is that a pink box with two lines ending in a pink box is an elevator.
I went to the left first, and the map does fucking nothing to help me figure out how the fuck I can reach those square gems or whatever the flying fuck they are.
I don't mind there being no handholding, but this map is seriously the worst piece of shit I have ever experienced holy fuck.
>>332960909
Grow up, the game is fun, there is nothing else that should matter. Learn to disconnect yourself from issues that don't pertain to you.

>>332964041
Ignore the pink lines. They mainly just show where one entrance will take you on the second layer of the map.
I can afford another upgrade now, and I already have the link-dashing ability.
What should I get now? Considering the charge up blow because it would be nice doing some more damage.
>>332953572
>caring about fps in a pixel shit game
In the West underground
I'm at an area with a giant gap between me and some shooter guys, in the area above the teleporter.
I see the switch. I assume it's for the door below and further west.
How do I active it?
Either the bullet absorbing dash or the charge attack
>>332964041
I've honestly ignored the underground map. The upperworld map is actually pretty good since it can show islands that you can tell you haven't been to so there is a secret in that area.
>>332964296
The dashing slash where you hit multiple enemies combos really nicely with the chain dash, because it works as a gap closer.
You can slash through enemies to do a bunch of damage, then chain dash back around and do it again, all at sanic speed.
>>332964350
>he likes eye-strain
stop defending this shit you fuck lord
>>332964296
The dash that defects stuff or that sword attack to hit stuff back. Bomb and health are always a good option too.
>>332953572
I got this game and am in the process of beating the west section but what the fuck happened to the streatch goas that didn't make into the game? Or what appeared in the fucking trailer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKgLJiJYvY8&feature=youtu.be&t=77
>>332954451
the sounddesign is actually really impressive
>>332964465
You shoot it
>>332964350
The game is perfectly playable at 30fps, because it's 2D, but you'd have to be pretty ignorant to think that it wouldn't look smoother and feel a little more responsive at 60.
>>332953572
Newgame+ is handled in the worst fucking way possible
For a game about timing your dodges in order to not die, the devs did whatever they could to fuck up timing button presses. (The sound cue is mistimed and misleading, the animation can basically be ignored for timing and the game freezes on being hit without actually granting invulnerability at any point after the freeze)
Dashing doesn't grant any sort of invincibility, which wouldn't be a problem if the game didn't freeze on hit to fuck up timing the next one that could save your life
30 FPS lock
There's no way to act out of a dash without using half your energy bar
Dashing more than 3 times in a row and not acting out of it causes you to slide for way too fucking long with no control of your character
Dashing 3 times in a row and touching a wall will cause you to recoil of the wall and be open for at least 1.5 seconds (Including if the wall hits you from behind)
Dashing less than 3 times leaves you in control, but there's a big fucking gap in the time you can actually attack after stopping (Unless you wanna use half your energy to act directly out of a dash like I said before)
Missing either of the dash attacks basically means you're fucked; enjoy that hit
And I'm either incompetent, or the timing for the animation cancels doesn't make any fucking sense. Doing a cancel the same way I just did it a second ago has often lead to it not working
At least I didn't pay for this, I guess.
>>332964850

>>332964851
>Newgame+ is handled in the worst fucking way possible

What the shit almost none of that is in the game
>>332954451
I don't get people being so dick hard about the music.
It's legit shit and I was forced to almost mute it due to how horrible the "ambient" music is. It feels like such a clusterfuck of random noises put together, it just draws me out.
I am not even a music fag, I usually notice music when it's either shit or really good. Needless to say, this one is really shit.
>tfw I didn't even notice it was at 30fps until someone kept crying about it since it's just a 2D game
And before you say I can't tell I can see the difference between 120 and 144 fps

I love it and think it's worth what I paid to back the KS, but this kills games and their communities.
Basically saying Heart Machine(lol)'s games are only worth playing because the creator is sick and you should feel bad for ignoring him.
I haven't looked at the guy's Twitter, but he'd probably be mad that his shills are shitting on his game's merit literally 2 days into its release.
>>332965014
Pretty much
The only thing I kept was all the basic ability upgrades (sword attacks and dodge abilities)
Also, the limit for health is capped at 2, so enjoy dying in one hit to basically everything.

Yes, those are some legitimate complains when you get technical with it. I especially hate when you hit and leaves you open.
Can't this game be modded to 60FPS?
>>332965317
I would love coop since I would block people from entering a doorway
Oh wait, that game already exists
>>332954456
Nigga I can't, how can I buy all my plastic butts and tits from Japan and SJW games ?

>Still arguing about the 30 fps lock despite that being a deliberate design choice by the head dev
What's the fucking point? You're not gong to change anything.
>>332953572
pretty good game imo
/v/'s salty as fuck about it for some reason, I don't know why
and 18 bucks is pretty cheap as new vidya go outside of mobile shovelware
>>332965637
Everyone on /v/ is, was, or could be an amateur game dev, and this is an indie game. Indie games are decent examples for amateur devs to go on.
If not to convince the dev, just letting people around you know that it's a shitty idea is fine.
>>332964096
As a straight white male, they do pertain to me
>>332963197
thanks, I found it
>people complaining about 30 fps lock
Christ you guys complain about the dumbest shit, the game doesn't even need 60 fps
>>332965637
>Arguing
That's wrong. It's just being pointed out that it's a really shitty idea and that there's no real reason to do it unless your game is a movie.
>>332965860
But it's fine at 30 fps.
The game has two main problems:
1) Movement is a little too cumbersome
2) The story/map is too vague.
That said it's easily a 4/5 game worth playing especially if you like old school console rpgs.
Anybody knows how to get the achievements "Natural Leader", "Nothing's Easy, Now is it?" or "Meditation"?
>>332964843
The switch makes a noise and doesn't do anything
If you had no info about the game and what was promised in the kickstarter this game would be a solid 8/10
However since almost everyone knows about the kickstarter the game drops to a fucking 4/10.
Literally missing more content than MGS5
>>332966137
No one's saying it's not you faggot. We're saying it would be better at 60.
>>332966137
I think so too, just playing devil's advocate.
Imagine a worse off game locking itself to 30 or just not optimizing itself because it was "fine," though. I've seen a few games that run terribly because the guy who coded it had something stupid powerful and he just never tested it on worse rigs before making the game public.
>>332966263
Did you play with a controller or M+K?
I'd also add wall-hugging secrets to the list
What's the point of the drift shield?
Playing with it now and I can't phase into bullets and take no damage, I still need to maneuver around bullets
>>332962919
That's a relief.
Thanks mate
isnt this piece of shit only like 5 hours long orsomething

I'm at like six and I've only beat one boss, but I've explored all the areas a decent amount

No, it's fucking pixel shit, no one would notice it.
So what the hell was up with the plot? All I got from it was that Frog people and Bird people are assholes
What's your highscore for chain dashes?
Mine is 1185

Frog dudes did nothing wrong.

sounds good
Theres a little underground side path in the North Area but all it has is a small pathway and something blocking my progress. I can hear something loud ahead but I can't get past. Help?
Anyone got some good 1080 wallpapers/backgrounds?
>>332969719
also dont move your mouse
>>332961863
I get what you're trying to say, but it is substantially harder to keep a plant or two hidden than it is to keep a small plastic bag/container. Growing yourself is not feasible in a lot of living situations.
>>332966927
It's buggy, it usually works when bullets are already spawned, the sword reflect is much more reliable
>>332962336
Replace lettuce with cucumbers and sandwiches get much better.
>>332968240
When you kill the Bird-Emperor of Birdkind the giant cloak he's wearing falls off and turns out to be some kind of weird shadow monster. It's got arms and everything. Seems like he was being controlled/puppeted by it.
Not trying to 2deep4u but that was kinda cool.
>>332963704
You don't
>>332963365
This might explain his nickname "heartmachine". It's sad to know that a decent dev might die while all the rest of the indie cancer is healthy and spreading at full force.
>>332970083
The arrow blocks go down when you clear the area they correspond to

>is this true?
I love discussing video games on my favorite board, /v/ - Twitter Drama
>>332972004
Im glad GOG exist.
I really wanted to give the game a shot but the bright color palate combined with the dinner plate-sized pixels and wonky perspective makes me physically sick
>>332972771
what has gog have to do with any of that
>>332972004
That's a programmer, not the lead dev.
>>332972898
Piracy
>>332972890
Reverse shilling
Why go on /v/ and complain about something so asine
>>332973690
The steam version was cracked first..
>>332973773
because it is vomit inducing. The game is wasted potential left n right with a shit sjw dev. Could have been a good transistor clone but they had to fuck it up with stupid decisions.
>>332974004
Cry more about the things other people create
You're doing everyone a service
>>332973867
The GoG version doesn't need to be cracked, clever fellow.
You literally just copy it.
>>332974004
>sjw
How does that affect this game specifically
>>332974130
How about the updates?
>>332973773
Because OP asked you faggot
If you want a hugbox for your precious game go somewhere else.
This thread is a testament to how fucking bad /v/ is now oh my god.
>MUH 60 FPS
there is literally nothing wrong with a 2d game being locked at the 30fps. The sprites and engine timing is based around 30fps and it never slows down or looks choppy
>muh furry shit
If you are one of these people kill yourself. Characters that are animals aren't furry shit. Not to mention, the sprites and designs are so minimal that the fact they are animals doesnt even really matter. How autistic can you be.
>muh sjw!!!!
If you can't separate art and artist then you are a fucking idiot. If it's a good game who cares who made it?
This website is truly as bad as the people they mock, if not worse.
>>332963014
-Can't change controls to use D-pad
everything else I don't even care, but THIS, this is a fucking deal breaker.

>>332964296
Here's my upgrade priority:
Chain Dash > Reflect Sword > Shield Dash > Dash Slash > Dash Poke > Charge Sword.
Do not upgrade your gun, med kits, or grenades until you have all the other stuff. They're not really worth it.
Reflect Sword and Shield Dash are interchangeable, but should definitely be the first two upgrades you get after Chain Dash. I like more DPS and aggressive playstyles so I got Reflect Sword first. It makes the West boss so much easier since he stops to fire easily reflect-able projectiles at you every once in awhile. It's free damage on him. Shield Dash is useful for bypassing areas with those annoying auto-turrets.
>>332954182
why do I let myself get fucking furious over obvious bait
I want to leave but I can't
fuck you, guy
>>332974841
go back to tumblr you little retard. This is a fast paced game which constantly has frame drops, vomit inducing visuals which make you lose track of the action and retarded exploration where you have to hug every single wall to even challenge one boss, then collect 16 hidden pieces of shit to challenge the final boss. Fucking retarded decisions and you clearly never played it faggot.
>>332953572
Pirated it about half an hour ago
Loaded the game up and 30 fps hits you like a brick in the face the moment you start playing. The game's engine just isn't adequate for what the game wants to do, from the very first instant of play it's bad.
Then I got the gun. And the game wants me to aim with the left stick in a game in which I run with the left stick. The right stick is left unused and you cannot rebind aiming to the right stick.
At this point I closed and deleted the executable.
How do you just do everything wrong?....BASIC things, that is?...
>>332974841
I can forgive the 30fps if they didn't also try to do the whole lagging camera effect. That shit doesn't look good at anything below 60fps. I still get nauseous sometimes playing this game. It's not just pointless nitpicking, it's an actual, physical problem I have with the framerate.
Does someone have a map of the West or South areas?
>>332960121
>Why am i required to know about the creator's personal life?
>Still complain about SJW tweets
Clearly you care.
>>332975281
Grenades are underrated as fuck, a well placed one can totally clear a room, also charge attack is utterly broken, it hits for 5 damage.
>>332975425
>vomit inducing visuals
lol.
The only thing I can't get used to is how the dash follows the mouse and not the direction keys. I see shit coming at me and I press dash+a out of reflex to dodge left and instead since I'm facing the enemy I charge right into them. Only thing I'm not happy with.
>>332975004
Wow, good counter argument! I can really see your point.
>>332975425
It has never dropped frames for me. How bad is your computer that you can't play a glorified flash game? Also the game shows you through visual cues where secrets are, and once you realize this is a feature how do you have trouble recognizing it later on?
The action is hard to follow. Good one. It's so hard to pay attention to the main character and five enemies at once. Which are all brightly colored and slow just to make sure it doesn't overwhelm you.
Seriously most of this shit is pretty typical for videogames, especially open world ones. It's a game about exploring. Why are you mad you have to explore?
>>332975958
>its has never dropped frames for me
>>332975535
It's not a twin stick shooter, you're meant to fire from the hip mid combat, the aim is only there if you're trying to hit a switch or want to snipe with the rail gun.
>>332976121
What else do you want me to say?
I'm running it on an older machine, too. Sorry your computer sucks. It's a sprite based game made in GAMEMAKER
It's a cute little game; the boss battles are fun and everything looks cool but going around searching for the triangles shit gets boring.
>>332975958
nice strawmanning champ. I have an i5 with 2.5 ghz and 8gb ram with a recent graphics card which can run fallout 4. Are you telling me this game which is under 1gb of size and looks worse than ps1 games needs a super computer? Fucking kek. I know my toaster is not the best but if this mediocre transistor rip off takes up more resources than fallout 4 then something is off.
>>332975958
I am >>332975535
I detected frame drops within the first two minutes with nothing happening on screen. The game drops frames as a consequence of how it is designed in game maker.
It factually drops frames. I saw it. I have a 970.
This game should run 1000 fps on a cell phone.
>>332975951
Game plays a lot better with a controller. I've just been using my old PS3 controller
>>332966324
You probably need the railgun or whatever it's called, got it on the north area.
>>332953572
Game has a cool atmosphere and it's certainly pretty, but I'm glad I didn't buy it. Played for a couple hours but gave up because I have a lot of nitpicks with it:
> combat is shit
> can't see the fucking cursor
> dash chaining is actually great, but I need to aim it with my mouse, which I can't FUCKING FIND half the time
> reset on dungeons is bullshit - respawning mobs are okay
> INVISIBLE BRIDGES
>>332974981
why would you do this
super panda adventures did the same thing
dumbest design choice
>>332976349
Not being able to customize the controller makes it impossible for me to play since I'm using a third party dual-shock so it makes the controls fucked up.
>>332976327
No I am agreeing with that. It doesn't need a good computer. That's my point
>>332976271
It doesn't matter if it's not a twin stick shooter, you do not reuse one stick for two completely separate controls and then not give the player the option to rebind. This is just outright bad design.
There is NO reason not to have shooting on the right stick-- you don't change things that are done the same way in every other game, for NO reason, with NO benefit.
>>332976372
>combat is shit
Play with a controller, like the game heavily suggests
>>332976473
Then why is it dropping frames on a 970 like >>332976337
said? Btw I know 5 other people with PC which can max out witcher 3 all of them reported frame drops and other issues just like I did. Did you even play it or are you just shitposting? Or maybe unable to recognize the difference between 30 fps 60 fps and a blurry mess of 30 fps which constantly stutters while everything else which is more demanding runs just fine?
>buh buh but why won't you separate the game and the developer's politics?
Do you really want to finance people who shit on you, your hobbies and everything you stand for?
SJWs will not show that kind of mercy in return, and they go even further by trying to get games whose creators they hate banned from steam, get them mass boycotted, start massive social media hate campaigns against them, try to get them blacklisted from everything forever, etc.
>>332976774
this. also fuck giving money to a literal faggot that will instantly give your money to anita and wu to produce more shit.
