You don’t get a dash button. You get a walk button that slows you down to a leisurely speed so you can enjoy how awesome and amazing the world of Silksong is.

Left dash and right dash are separate skills to acquire, like possible with the HK randomizer.

Walking left and right are separate skills for the same reason. The West and East ends of maps have turnstiles in case you need to turn around.

Bunny Must Die starts you off with the ability to only walk in one direction, and there's an achievement for finishing the game that way. There's a back-dash, so you can move - awkwardly - in the opposite direction, but you will never face that way.

Jumpjet, melta, jumpjet. Repeat for ten minutes or until victory is assured.
Is there a Floor is Lava one? Like, I'm imagining that touching the ground makes you take damage, but you can down-slash bounce off of anything to avoid that.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

so this is a youtube channel that exists, apparently. just in case you were wondering whether there were poor motherfuckers more insane than the denizens of this thread.

That is how Castlevania works though. You know what you need to do and what tools you have to do it and you need to decide how to use those tools. There is an element of "next time I do this I should come in prepared with (x)" but that's because the game is designed with the assumption you'd play it multiple times trying to improve your score.

Another thing to remember about those old-school NES/SNES games is that the cartridges cost like $60-80 - in the late 1980s. That's probably nearly double the price of a modern AAA game considering inflation, which is a huge amount of money for a game that in theory takes 1-2 hours to beat (and not in a speedrun kind of way, but just in a successful playthrough from start to finish).

So for the platformers, the difficulty and instant death pits and lack of saves (with the exception of the occasional password system) was also there so you would be able to play the game for more than a handful of hours. The other main game types would be RPGs that were very grindy, and sports games that you could play endlessly.
