So far it's a bretty good game. Aesthetics are good, music is nice and moody, combat is pretty fun and fast-paced, and other than the 30 fps cap it's good. Just beat the east boss who was really easy compared to the north one.
>>
>>137146601
Go slow, and try not to dash once he starts doing the cascading explosions.
Just get like three hits in, and then move to a safe square. Dashing will usually put you into an unsafe square because of the distance

You most certainly did fuck up.

>>137146601
When he starts doing the row by row attacks just stop using your dash, it's much easier to just run and avoid them.

>>137146649
also answered in the /v/ thread but "You can't get through it until you beat the boss, those indicators on the blocks in your way mean that direction's tower needs to be activated for them to go down and get out of your way."

Also going to start spoiling webms in case people want to be surprised by shit, this is the second boss in the south. It was pretty fuckin rad.

Played for several hours. The pacing is off due to overreliance on dashing and extremely simplistic environment design. The symbols used are pretty unintuitive and there is nothing subtle about exploration hints which makes the whole thing feel both hamfisted and pretentious (use of sound to emphasize what is already obvious is near-painful). Gameplay is good for western standards but the aforementioned reliance on dodging and the 30fps under which the game runs never adds fluidity to combat, you always feel as something is hampering your character.

Color palette puts strain on the eyes and the boss battles are pretty simplistic affairs, one in particular looks like Artorias-lite and there's nothing to do when environmental destruction is concerned, nothing meaningful. When art design is this poor, the world can hardly feel enticing. In fact, some times I wasn't sure what's up and what's down, if you can step on a platform and if it's even a platform; everything feels like it's 0.1 inch thick stacked in vague space formations. It's particularly jarring when you try to explore.

What is it with western indie devs's fascination with Souls games when they can barely make pixel art?
>>
>>137147136
I don't give a shit about what opinions a dev has when it comes to what game I buy. If Satan made a game and it was good, I'd buy it, because that's what ultimately matters here, the quality of the game.

I mean, not everything you said is off, but damn if your writing isn't that very hamfisted pretentiousness you accuse the game of.

My claim was that the constant name dropping of Souls games in indie dev circles seems like a strange fixation. It's as if they all realized what is storytelling through map design at the same time, or what are moveset patterns.

>>137148036
West certainly cannot make good gameplay more often than not. If you weren't a memester you could have seen I said that the gameplay is good for western standards which means it's average at best. I don't know what there is to praise in particular. You dodge, you slice and you pew pew boom.

Every time I try to launch the game from Steam it crashes and my display driver crashes, any help?
>>
>>137148447

Are you drivers up to date?
Have you tried rebooting your computer?
>>
>>137148340
And yet the only one comparing it to Souls games is you. Are you the guy who posted the image of a campfire in the game and claimed that was ripping off Dark Souls?

The most legitimate comparison this game has is to a Zelda game in terms of the overworld, exploration, and fairly light objectives given to the player.

Here's a legitimate complaint about the game: some of the perks don't work quite right or as you'd expect them to. As an example, the projectile shield on your dash is programmed in such a way where it only activates if the game thinks you're going to go near projectiles, but its detection of this is often times faulty, leading to you taking damage that you should have negated.

im constantly low on health

i need to git gud
>>
>>137148861
North, East, and West are all available for anyone to go on, though I really wouldn't suggest West first. If you're getting fucked, you might try teleporting back to town; you can walk out the East gate and head south a bit to pick up a health pack, then teleport back to town and repeat till you're full - then try again on the path you want. Keep exploring and look for stuff, there are tons of little hidden side rooms with med packs and currency.

that mini boss was really easy if you just bum rush the shit out of him, since you destroy his orbs at the same time that you hurt him. he never gets to do any damage

or you could use the "sword reflects projectiles" upgrade and fling his own shit back at him

i love how every puzzle piece in the south world gets its own mini boss

>>137149232
Oh yeah I beat him second try, I just stuck on top of him and every time he summoned I'd just heavy swing and kill all of them.

How are you guys taking screenshots? Neither printscreen nor F12 work for me. Also dashing in the direction of the mouse just isn't intuitive for me. Shooting is, but not dashing. I keep trying to dash in the direction I'm facing.

I do have an 360 gamepad. Does it play better?
>>
>>137150326
dashing is much more intuitive with a gamepad, but aiming is a little harder, as one would expect.
>>
>>137150326
I use fraps for videos and just been using the windows snip tool for screenshots.

I've been playing with a PS3 controller set up to behave as a 360 controller and it works. Aiming the guns isn't great, but everything else is pretty good. Well, except you have to use the analog stick, you can't use the dpad to move. All the functionality of the dpad is that down makes you sit.
>>
If you can't get the game to work, email:
[email protected]
and maybe attach your DxDiag too, as that's always very helpful.

Just e-mailed them about a freeze bug I'm getting that pretty much requires that I reboot my PC.
>>
>>137150532
>>137150575
Just tried it out a little. Yeah, gunplay becomes very awkward, but the hack n slash is a ton more satisfying. Guess I'll just switch back to mouse for sniping. Can't you aim while standing using right stick or something?
>>
>>137151110
Left stick, can't move while aiming.

>>137151110
Hold left trigger and it roots you in place and lets you control an aiming reticle with the right stick

You need to beat him without him scoring on you?

I can't even take a game off him period.
>>
>>137151895

Sorry, phrased that poorly, I have beaten him 10 - 1, but I didn't get anything, have yet to beat him without him scoring so I have no idea if there is a reward.

I assume it's another cloak.
>>
>>137151502
updating on this, i finally have my first 3 gold

what's the best first upgrade to get?

i'm thinking the agility store is probably the most useful one first, i dunno which to get though

i haven't come up against enough projectiles for the dash shield to be viable, unless it also blocks melee attacks
>>
>>137151895
kick off with a heavy swing to instantly score on him ~60% of the time. the heavy swing in general is good for stealing the ball and giving it enough momentum to put it near his goal

>>137151502
projectile reflection with the sword is probably the best upgrade in the game
>>

Just now beat the bird dude, took a few tries. The forced distance for dash kind of fucked me up a few times due to the fact that I'm playing with Kb+m and I can see my cursor, always assume I'll jump to the cursor which is obviously not the case.

You can dash diagonally from the bottom up. I did it without any upgrades. Just need health pads.
>>
just out of curiosity.. how long does it usually take for someone to come out with a crack for a game like this....
>>
So does infini-dash allow you to traverse larger gaps? There's a golden coin piece to the right of one of the northern maps immediately outside the village, where you gotta dash from a ledge like 4 pixels wide. I can't fucking reach it.
>>
As a tip the shot gun you receive at the end of the East path makes the west path way easier, it can one shot dash lancers and do 70% or more to the crystal guardians.
Plus since the environment crystals regrow you can sword spam them for firearm meter.

I went to the northern path first. I got to the top of the mountain where there's some diamond on a pedestal shown to you by the camera. I thought this might activate the boss, but I wanted to explore. I took a left and went down an elevator shaft into some kind of dungeon with lots of moving blocks you have to dash past.

Well, I got smashed against a wall by one of the blocks, glitched and flew past a gate into another room with blocks that slam sequentially (so there's no way to backtrack). The path forward is a room with three bird casters, followed by ten flying birds plus three more casters plus god knows what else because that's as far as I can get. After ten deaths I'm out of meds.

Is there some kind of trick to this? I get attacked from all sides so there's nowhere to dodge.

Git gud. Dodging doesn't make you invincible so don't spam it. Learn to use the gun in between your sword moves. Instead of aiming, just try to feel the direction and just leftstick + shoot.

I have a feeling I know what room you're talking about. After the flying bird wave, there's shouldn't be too much more. If you can, screenshot it.

switch your control setting to mouse and keyboard

pick an open space at the bottom of the room. set your mouse cursor there. you will dash back and forth in the same spot without needing much room.

so now the only thing you need to worry about it mashing your space bar - not too fast and not too slow. i did it by synching with a metronome. you can also download a program or make a simple script that will mash your space bar for you, and then you'll have it.

its not so bad really.

>>137246083
I'm about where you are m8, except I'm only missing 2 puzzle pieces.

Just start from the beginning and retrace all of your steps. It's tedious but not so bad. The door that I think you're talking about should contain another puzzle piece and the orange drifter outfit unlock for you.

>>137246208
i got the green and blue outfit from the west which looks really nice, except i have no idea if it's possible to change your headgear. i thought mine changed when i went to the south and unlocked that outfit from the dead guy, but maybe that's a permanent change?

i'm waiting for some motherfucker to make a guide for the puzzle pieces, because that frog zone is so tedious to try and explore every inch of. the way everything interconnects is really awkward

from the teleporter, go into the green room directly southwest of you. from there, instead of going into the room where you get locked in with enemies, just go straight north and then look to your left

i was one key short of getting inside, i think it needs 12. all i could see in there was an extra key, but there's probably more secrets inside

Sounds to me like it's randomized then, because I literally went in there shortly before I posted and it was the white set for me.

>>137249607
I think there's some confusion. The door requiring only 1-2 keys leads down a path that ends in the orange set, or at least it did for me.

The other door that needs like 12 keys probably contains this white set you're referring to?

Yeah, I did respond to posts picturing the 12 key door, so I got confused why you said the orange set was in there.

There's one that you get to by going towards the boss room, in the area before where you fight too many frogs, there's an area to the west. there's a door in there.
>>
>>137250373
There's one that requires 12 keys, which you are aware of.

There's another that requires 1 key, which you are also aware of, and leads to the orange set.

The extra door that you are referring to is on the lower level somewhere southeast, I believe. You may have already opened it. It's a lab filled with a lot of shooter and frog dudes as well as containers of that explosive purple jelly that the frogs like so much. There's a skeleton near the locked door. I think it just leads to another puzzle piece.
>>
>>137250826
how do you get back to that area? the path that leads to the west from the pre-boss room doesn't appear anymore if you've already defeated the boss.

there are 2 hidden paths leading in and out of a secret room that WOULD let me get back to that area, but it's blocked off by pink blocks. presumably you have to remove those by hitting a switch on the OTHER side that i can't reach anymore since i beat the boss
>>
>>137250971
nevermind i'm retarded and forgot you have go north and then come back to the room to trigger the second fight that unlocks the path

After you kill all the frogs, walk towards the boss door, then walk back. a bunch of new frogs show up, kill them and the path shows up again.

The tablet, when decoded, may shed light on the setting, but what we get is what we get, and the alternate drifter has no special cutscenes of his own, not even a story, given the fact that nothing happens when you collect 4 pieces in any area or beat bosses.

As soon as possible get chain dash, then heavy strike. They are absurdly helpful in and out of fights. You can quickly alternate between slashing and firing the pistol to do damage quickly without any other guns/upgrades.

Okay. Is there a good order to do the regions in? Stuck at East boss.

>Also got a rad sandy yellow one from the first locked door that requires one key in the east.
Where the hell is it? I still havent found it.

mine was similar to that, although after sitting by the campfire was in a weird white/blue plain with Drifter standing there, then he started bleeding from his stomach and was like 'oh shit' and cupped his stomach and the camera panned upwards to white

east -> north -> west -> south

for east boss, just hit him twice, dash out, walk towards him and repeat. he will get locked into a single attack pattern and never even enter phase 2.

>>137258905
North - West - East - South.

>doing west before east
are you trying to trick the poor guy? west boss was the only difficult boss fight of all 4 regions
>>
>>137259426
East is piss easy when you can oneshot ninjas, shooters and greandiers with 1 plasma shot.
>>
>>137259426

>West Boss
>Hard

I beat it on my first attempt, get gud.

Also, anyone else familiar with the room in west where you dash through a bunch of crystal traps and get a cloak set at the end?
Well I opened the 16 key door and got the exact same set from in there, what the fuck game dev.

How do I unlock these two?

I have the advanced dash but I don't think I can double dash the gap and I haven't seen a key or anything for the door.
>>
>>137262146
you need the sniper gun for that
>>
>>137262146
Far as I know the door just doesn't unlock, once you shoot the pillar with the sniper though you can get across and a path leads behind the locked door.

>>137260724
did you also one-shot all the other bosses, or did you have a hard time with any of them?

i one shot the frog and 2-shot the bird. i just kept having trouble with the samurai because the final swing of his combo hit such a huge area.

i could've just cheesed him on the first try by staying away from him and just reflecting his projectiles, but i wanted to go full coldsteel mode and dodge around hitting him in melee as much as possible

>you dash towards the cursor instead of just in the direction you're moving in
Is there a way to change this? I really don't like it.
>>
>>137262504
use a gamepad

you can change it by playing on a controller like the game told you to
>>
>>137262591
>>137262617
That's fucking retarded. I'm not using a controller for something that would be more comfortable for me using a keyboard and mouse.
>>
>>137262815
>complains it's not comfortable with KBM
>backpedals
Ok, whatevs
>>
>>137262815
how could a controller possibly be less comfortable for a game that was designed for controller?

do you have no thumbs? is your controller covered in fire ants?
