Yeah I know it's in early access,but it's still fucking great.
I will give it a look.
Pic related is a gem too.

>>336041685
Cool,that actually looks kinda fun,and co op is always a nice bonus.
>>336041935
Well then post something that isn't "pixelshit" you nutsack.
>>336041470
What is that picture supposed to be? It's a fucking mess of colors and pixels n shiet.
>>336042156
I admit it's not the best.There are other,better looking pictures out there for it at this point...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_3xrqjTyes
Here's a trailer though that kinda explains what the game is,maybe I shoulda put this in the OP.
>>336042156
You need to play more vidja, m8
>>336041935
>Has retro graphics so it must be bad
>>336042458
>your friends play as the monsters
Explain this shit right now
Also, fuck, what a shitty trailer, it goes forever and the voice is super annoying
The game has good animations desu
>>336041685
>>336041685
I've sunk hours into this game.
Is great, needs some balance and bug fixes but yeah.
Underrail is overlooked a lot.
>>336042890
Me and my friends played it a few times.
So the first player starts out as the warrior, and everyone else plays pixel versions of monsters with different powers and try to kill the warrior. The longer the warrior stays alive the better equip he will be to fight the final boss which all have a different part the other players can control.
We only beat the "boss" once, it was tough.
>>336042890
I thought it was cool,voice didn't bother me but to each their own I guess.....It's kinda simple,at the one person starts as the human,and up to three other players (or AI) start as ghosts,most rooms have little pentagrams on the floor that the ghosts can activate to turn into a monster,they then have to try to kill the human. Whoever kills the human becomes the human,and the point is to try and get to the final boss to kill it and escape...There's only two final bosses at the moment,but all of the ghosts can control an individual part of the boss...So for example,the big fat one eyed thing at the end of the trailer,one person can control the mouth which shoots out a big ass laser,and each of the arms can be controlled.
>>336043284
I admit it does look interesting, if i can get past those headache-inducing pixels on my fucking 4K display.
>>336042504
>shit graphics are good
>>336043084
Underrail doesn't really seem like my type of game personally,but it's kinda interesting,and the reception seems to be good.

it's the greatest FPS Game in the PS2.
Especially the multiplayer, you done fucked up
>>336044372
It's got AI bots,so you can play it by yourself too,but the devs have discussed online multiplayer in the past,but I',m pretty sure they've said it's not gonna happen....I think there's only two,maybe three people total working on the game so I would assume online is a bit of a challenge for them.
>>336042890

>the greatest FPS Game in the PS2
that's not saying much
I wish there were more games like this
>>336044909
this game is really weird. Like it feel like it wants to be a shooter or a stealth game, but doesn't give you quite enough to do either. Honestly didn't have enough fun with it, especially when you had to restart long levels.
>>336044909
This was made by the Risk of Rain guys,right? Haven't played it yet but it looks pretty fun.
>>336045129
yes I kinda feel the same about it, wants to be both and sometimes it executes that idea well.
But I still loved it; it's reasonably long, there are custom levels and I like the soundtrack
>>336045170
It is indeed fun, might get a bit frustrating at times but I suggest you to give it a try.
>>336045106
Steam page mentions Castlevania and Metroid as inspirations,so you could always play those,and there's a ton of Castlevania games...Maybe try out Rouge Legacy?
Is the idea of razing entire city blocks in a dystopian cyberpunk city with a giant mech really so unappealing to most people?
>>336041470
Nice try fuckass, but no one is going to buy your shitty pixel reddit game.
>>336046658
is that the future cop follow up?
They've done a fucking horrific job publicising it
>>336046789
>future cop follow up?
Brigador has nothing to do with Future Cop. I'd not even say they're similar in any way other than the setting.
Maybe they'd release the next part if Albino Lullaby got more attention.
>>336046658
Sounds pretty appealing to me.
>>336046730
What exactly is a "Reddit game"?
>it's a local only multiplayer indie game
>>336046970
Looks unsettling,what kinda game is it?
>>336047052
Feel free to leave your own suggestion then anon.
Infinifactory. Amazing game, definitely in my top 3 2015 games. People probably think it's a Minecraft ripoff or something like that, while it has a completely different goal. It's a very smart and challenging logic puzzle game, like SpaceChem and TIS-100 (same developer).
Early access shit, but the base gameplay is solid. Mix of Etrian Odyssey and Legends of Grimrock
>>336046658
What game
>>336045445
I played them, anyway, they're mentioned as inspiration because there is backtracking through the various areas and some exploration to find secret places, but other that this, it's not really like those 2...
If i were to compare it something else, I'd say Wonder Boy III The Dragon's Trap(minus the transformations), very simple "rpg-ish" features like HP and MP and basic and very limited equipment to increase the stats(with interesting feats like specific armor/weapon/magic combinations giving extra abilities), very platform-like levels, simple and toonish looking enemies, and a very basic plot.
>>336047331
An indie game with online multiplayer, like

Not to mention, that the Infinifactory developer inspired Minecraft in the first place (with Infiniminer).

Strives for more of a focus on unsettling and surreal atmosphere than jump scares or gore though.
>>336047591
Several of the games posted so far have been early access,so I don't think it's too much of an issue at this point.
>>336047732
Thanks for the contribution.
>>336044459
So... You already had it, then decided to not play it based on the cover? When playing it would have cost you absolutely nothing? And then undoubtedly got paid pennies for selling it?
You don't deserve to play that game, brah.
>>336048072
Why would I hire an artist for something I had no involvement in?...Also you could suggest something better instead of just bitching ya know.
>>336048079
Sounds cool,jump scares are shit anyways.

Still better than anything you've suggested buddy.
>>336048802
I don't understand how I can be a shill...I suggested a game that I think is good...Going by your logic you're just as much of a shill as I am because you suggested Dungeons of Dredmor.

>>336051975
>>336053532
To me this is too much of a clone, having really no originality in its artistic style.
Although the genre(ultra fast racing) never had a wide range of games, each of them was quite unique in its style, changing the enviroment and setting, the color scheme, the vehicles and the technolgy they used(anti-g space-like speed cars, regular spaceships, fast gyroscope bikes, magnetic tripods, and so on), but this one directly rips off wipeout, not only in the controls and how they feel while driving, but also with identycal styled hud, vehicles, tracks, settings, color scheme, and even the symbols used for the platforms that give the powerups.
>>336054967
And that's exactly why I love it.

I've never heard about this game, looked it up, or lurked this thread. Let me know how close I was.

link to this game?
I am a sucker for puzzle platformers, and I 'll be the first to admit that, there are a lot of same-y for the last 4-5 years. But this one, plays with your perception of space. Such a charming little game. I never really use this word for a game but this, is one of the few ones.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfLLuyozDI4&t=54s
>>336046658
I wish I could play this. I was so hype for it, but it won't run on my PC. I meet the specs, obviously, but apparently I need to update my (up-to-date) drivers.
Blood Alloy: Reborn. Was intended to be a metroidvania but it became essentially a "wave arena" shooter. The movement, animations and camera, make a frantic experience. But honestly it gets me bored after a while. I have the feeling it tries to capture the Vanquish essence in 2D and i love it for that.
>>336060496
I really like puzzle platformers and puzzle games in general, I'll give it a try.
Any other nice suggestion in the genre?
I would also like to play some puzzle playformer adventure(even single screen levels games like Escape Goat would be cool), be it in 2d or 3d, that deals with time manipulation and/or impossible space actually integrated in the gameplay as part of the puzzle solving mechanic.
>>336041685
Learning curve is too steep
I wish there was a sequel or a level editor for this
There's a dude making what's essentially supposed to be DCS/BMS in space, called Rogue System.
It's a pretty ambitious project, but I really hope it'll turn out well.
>>336055331
>get told to post something since he's bitching so much
>doesn't
>cries shill at the thought of someone enjoying something he doesn't
I'm just going to assume you're trolling as the alternative is you're retarded.
>>336062168
As for the impossible space, you might like Antichamber, maybe you ll like Papo and Yo. I try everyday to find these kind of games but there are very few.
As for time manipulation there is Braid, Blades of Time have a lovely time mechanic but it's a hack n slash game, There is also Super Time Force, but again, it's combat based
I love all the games I listed cause i also love time manipulation, weird space games, maybe i ll remember something later, dunno.
>>336062562
Oh damn such a nice mechanic, but yeah, it's a small game.
>>336062168
>>336063087
I will might as well add Fez (unfortunately not enough platforming), Trine series, PONCHO (love it"s mechanics), The Swapper and the upcoming Hob, i am actually hyped for Hob.
>>336041470
Let me guess, it's a randomly generated roguelite.
>>336063757
You're not allowed to guess unless you post a game yourself.
>>336063087
>Antichamber
Played it, but the puzzles are too confusing and "hard" for my tastes...
>Blades of Time
Played it and loved it, but the time manipualting in that is more of a gimmick rather than a gameplay element, although it is required to go on in a few places.
>Braid
Boring, and it's limited to rewinding time.
>Super Time Force
Might give it a try, thanks
I guess i should have been more specific about the time manipulation thing, as i meant more like a time traveling concept, where you end up helping yourself with time clones(like in Tinking With Time Machine or in a few levels of Another Perspective) and/or having to go in a past version of the place you're in to alter it so that when you're back in your time you can go on(i.e. in the present a bridge has collapsed, so you go back to before it did, put more supports under it, and when you're back to the present the bridge is still there thanks to those supports).

Is that game still active? I own it but my current laptop is shit,hoping to get a better pc before the end of the year.
>>336062556
Indeed. But thats part of its charm. I loved Spelunky and while there are tons of roguelike indie games, there wasn't one similar to it and no one that was better than Spelunky itself.
I highly recommend it. It has charm and the music reminds me Chrono Trigger's
>>336067120
>Spelunky
>roguelike
Why are redditors so obsessed with referring to every game with procedural generation as a roguelike
Project Zomboid is almost a carbon copy of Cataclysm: DDA but no one calls it a roguelike
Nobody calls Resident Rvil a puzzle game even though it has puzzles. Call of Duty doesn't have an RPG tag even though you can gain experience and level up.
Quit polluting my favorite genre with your fake shit
>>336068814
Some genres evolve. Most RPG doesn't use a turn system, platformers changed from 2D to 3D, fighting games now have combos.
Of course traditional games are still being made.
Get used to it.
>>336068814
Why are there so many people on 4chan who just use the term "redditor" to describe something they don't like?
With all these dungeon crawlers out, how come no one has made a dungeon master simulator?
Dungeon keeper doesn't count.
>>336070002
You mean like setting up traps or monster or whatever? Fable Legends was kinda like that.
>>336041685
Isn't this basically a Spelunky RPG?
I've had this on my wishlist for almost a year now. I'm waiting for it to leave Early Access, I can't be assed to buy anything in EA.
>>336069384
But roguelike is a very specific subgenre of RPGs. If you take anything away from it, it becomes something different.
The tile based graphics have evolved towards sprites and isometric projection, sure. There's nothing wrong with that. It doesn't add or subtract anything from the game. It's the logical conclusion to the ascii of the past.
You can't just take one or two mechanics from the genre, and still call it a roguelike. If you take the procedural generation, you're just making the game a dungeon crawler.
Permadeath sure as shit doesn't make a game a roguelike.
If you keep everything and make the game real time, it's no different than a regular RPG.
Face it, you were probably introduced to 'roguelikes' through FTL or Binding of Isaac, and now after learning you were misled, you're too stubborn to accept it, and you'd rather derivate and destroy an entire genre by jumping on the bandwagon and shouting buzzwords.
>>336070374
Yes, there are classes, talent trees, you level up, get gear and magic, more bosses and the enemies are harder to compensate your abilities.
Each class plays differently and since you can only get one experience level per level you are forced to pick a build.
It's fully playable and the multiplayer online works, but it's still incomplete. the good thing is that it's updated every two weeks at minimum, (the development team is very active), and there is a roadmap.
>>336041470
Crawl is rad. It sucks that I don't get to play it much. My buddy owns it and we can occasionally get a group together for couch play - it's always a blast. I'm excited to check out the changes since we last played a month ago.
>>336070797
Pic related was my first roguelike, along with DOOM roguelike version.
Tbh_ I think you are right, roguelike-likes or roguelites are a better term. But I think you are autistic. There are a lot of times and a lot of examples where a genre expands and reaches new possibilities. From Mario kart to Skyrim, all games are different and yet we need to classify them. It's like fucking music, a band can be classified as progressive contemporary metal or just simply as rock.
Metroidvania is considered a genre now, even if is action platforming with rpg. Mario Kart and Gran Turismo are in the same damn genre. Just deal with it.

>Hl2 mod...
I mean the hl mod
>>336071436
I don't think much of anything has changed in the past month,but they're working on an update that should be out soonish. The big change is going to bethe narrative,it's still not going to have a full fledged story or anything,but the start of every round is going to have randomized introductions from the voice over guy in the trailers,and then a short fight where everyone is a human and you have to kill each other,last guy standing gets to continue on as human and the others are ghosts...I think they're gonna add a few monsters and probably some items too,they seem to with every update.
>>336041470
I have no innate hatred for "pixelshit", but there are a few things about this brand of "pixelshit" that irk me:
- Pixels don't respect the grid, so you have rotated pixels like those shown in the pic
- It's so low-res that it's hard to make out individual elements in the scene at times, i.e. characters and enemies blending into the background (the lack of strong color contrast doesn't help)
- Pixel-thin limbs
Only benefit to these negatives is they allowed for some really fluid animation to be done by the presumably small team.
>>336072452
It's being developed by a team called Powerhoof,there's only 2 guys in the team so yeah,it's kinda small.
>>336055527
well yes, that is what the name implies... very astute
I think i am the only one who play this
if this had been on the SNES it would have been regarded as a hidden gem
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE6R0qnEckI
people write it off because it looks derivative, and most of the steam reviews say it's 'too hard' but if you do write it off, you're missing on some of the best platformer level design in years, topped off with an insanely technical movement system (think cave story + several types of gun-based propulsion + wall jumps + placeable teleporters).
>>336062562
I got it for less than a dollar during a steam sale and completed it in a couple hours with a few breaks. No complaints here.
>>336045106
Pretty good but it's metroidvania and kinda buggy
Also true last boss sucks

Valdis story was pretty fun. Basically a metroidvania that focused on combat. The characters you can play are fairly varied enough, andit's one of the few kickstarts I backed
>no marketing
>>336067038
this is the main reason most people dont play it. it wont run on just any toaster.
