“The most important thing in Vampire Survivors is the story, so it’s a dream come true to see what started as a little indie game I made on my weekends come to life as an animated TV show!,” says poncle founder Galante. “It’s also great to be partnering up with such experienced and talented people to make the show. I do wonder if they’ve realized that there isn’t a single vampire in Vampire Survivors, though.”

maybe for one second you can pause; try to step into another person's perspective, and understand that a watermelon is cursing me



It really deserves to be paired with the next quote from the production company "we were prepared to dismiss it as just another vampire game."

Revita! I like all of the games you mentioned and Revita is the one that fits in with them best. It's a game I felt finished with at 50 hours whereas I was finished with the games you mentioned in about 110 hours each (more in isaac's case ofc) so just a warning that it's not quite as robust as the others.

I bought 2 on release and was very bummed at how similar the two games were. Like I'm pretty sure you convince someone one is two and vice versa if not for like one throwaway game mode especially if you don't really care to play online

I was enjoying Crying Suns, until it randomly decided my savegame was corrupted and deleted ~5 hours of progress.
I was enjoying a second, faster playthrough, until it decided the second save was also corrupted and deleted ~1.5 hours of progress.
The game doesn't seem to be able to pull an earlier save from Steam, either.

Anyone else had this issue? Is there any way to cheat my way back to where I was?

Actually the one on my left is the primary monitor.
It's pretty convenient that way! Putting the taskbar on your secondary monitor means you can have fullscreen games or videos on the main one without having to alt-tab or un-fullscreen them to get at it. And putting it on the side like that means it's as close as possible to the primary monitor without actually being on it, so you never have to look or move your mouse too far to get at it.

You should try it sometime.

If I get a couple of stakes & cables to plug a second potato to the right of my current one, does that count?

Finally beat the first murder in Shadows of Doubt that I had real trouble with. I'm not sure if the relative lack of evidence was due to a bug, or just early access jank, or because this murder happened outside or what, but I almost gave up on this one a few times. All I really had was one fingerprint and the approximate time of death. But we got there eventually.



What a fun game!

Windows 11 doesn't even support putting the taskbar on the sides or top anymore so it's definitely not going to be very common in the future

I had this issue with one until I revisited the crime scene and noticed a crumpled up note a few feet away that I had missed that said "Let's Play" and then the scrambled name of the killer. It was a lot easier after that :doh:

You could try asking the Roguelike thread, a couple of us have been playing it lately. Though personally after getting the true ending I've shelved it since it doesn't have all that much variety as a deckbuilder unfortunately.

I hope we get the most serious melodramagic videogame adaptation ever. Just a bunch of vampire survivors discussing the nature of the soul and how to do spring cleaning.

The VS show will be the inverse Dragonball Z where instead of charging up for ten episodes every season every combat scene will take ten episodes because they happen at five frames a second.

It seems the additional game might be Dread Delusion, which makes me a lot more interested in this bundle. Although it looks pretty decent even without it I suppose.

Scarlet Deer Inn. It's hard to tell from the trailer just how much of a difference the embroidering makes, but I'm intrigued enough to wishlist it.

I think there's some imperfections in the scans that come through, and the same animation "frame" is embroidered and scanned multiple times to enhance the effect. I can't think of another game where it's been done this way.

You're right that it doesn't make that much of a difference visually and could've been done by hand in software, but I appreciate the practical nature of it.

The idea is incredibly similar to something like The Neverhood, but using a different medium, of course.
