That's just one transformation of many

Though honestly the best Shantae game is actually the one that doesn't have any transformations.

Shantae games are kinda metroidvanias, with different animal transformations being the exploration upgrades.

e: Well, there's also one game where she doesn't transform and instead upgrades by becoming increasingly piratey

Monkey, elephant, spider, and harpy, at least in the first game which is the only one I played. Her only puwers are changing form and hitting things with hair.

What happened to him?

Naegleria's trolling gimmick was actually just him being a huge rear end in a top hat all the time. I dunno if he was formally banned but at some point he got all assed up about the GDQ staff and now spends every GDQ event tweeting about how much it sucks now and people shouldn't go/support it.

No, I figured he was making a joke about the No-Fun thing. Jon is listed on Mario Galaxy; I couldn't find him at first because he usually listed by his original username, 'GameJ06', and that's what I was trying to find).

I do remember someone saying he got the flu or something last year, so he wasn't able to attend. I am interested if the guy who did the Jak and Daxter disaster run is doing something, since I heard he got softbanned (he wasn't permitted to submit a run last year, but would be eligible again this year)

Because they tend to be low-key games that work within their means, instead of being SPIRITUAL REVIVALS that try to replicate AAA experiences despite Kickstarter being laughably insufficient for getting that kind of money. They're mostly praying they get the funding and can then show an investor that the game has public interest and is a safe investment it loving isn't
