That looks great, but "looks kinda like Gunpoint" is I think underselling it slightly.

I was really surprised by how little I enjoyed Gunpoint, but that looks fun.

King Vidiot posted:That's great, but I think I'd have to wait and see how many of my current games Windows 10 is inevitably going to break before I take the plunge. Also I have Windows 7 Professional with XP Virtual Mode, will I get that taken away from me if I switch to Windows 10? Will my old disc-based games be even less likely to run? xp mode only works in 7. in 8 it'll suddenly stop being an activated version of windows xp and you won't be able to run anything in it.

Don't get me wrong, that's totally fine and it looks like a potentially very good game, just amusing.

I'm glad the conversation came around to Gunpoint, because I finally got around to playing that game and good god I want more games like it, pretty much immediately. What are they, Steam Thread.

Drifter posted:Yes, please use the over 5-year old video of the intro cinematic, despite the game being much reworked and patched and translated. You're so great. That intro is loving awesome, please don't tell me they ruined it in the remaster

Yeah, I experienced an immense sensation of sadness when I finished Gunpoint. I loved that game really a lot, like as a whole package with writing, music, graphics, and gameplay. The puzzle/hacking approach to each level was super engaging to me in a way that no game has really been in years. Give me more Gunpoint, dammit

GENDERWEIRD GREEDO posted:That intro is loving awesome, please don't tell me they ruined it in the remaster I think they removed it outright. They really did retranslate the whole thing. It still kinda reads like it's a second language in places, but in a 'the syntax is slightly off on that sentence' way, rather than 'holy gently caress what does that entire paragraph even mean!?' way. The HD version also adds a new faction (pirate alliance) that have their own victory conditions, missions, etc, and a bunch more little bits besides.

Unfortunately the one sin War Apart makes is that they did remove the intro, yeah. But let's remember it with our favorite song.

Dominic White posted:Something to look forward to in the future - Devolver have just signed Ronin. This looks amazing. Thanks for the heads-up. Gunpoint was definitely one of my favorite games of 2013. Mark of the Ninja was incredible too. I'd love to see more games like that.

So Words for Evil was included in one of the bundles linked yesterday, and I'm finding myself really enjoying it. It's a side-scrolling RPG Lite (in that your dudes have stats, but there doesn't seem to be any plot yet at least) where the 'battles' are you trying to spell out words faster than your opponent using a random grid of tiles; coming up with longer words/using more of the special 'attack' tiles powers up your hits. Also it lets me use 'SARS' as a double-strength attack once and I laughed.

Only like 2 out of the 10 games looks interesting. PS: How does Doorways hold up to something like Penumbra?

Honestly, I haven't tried any of the other games in the bundle yet. Most of my gametime right now is being spent on SRIV, One Finger Death Punch, Tomb of Tyrants, and Elite. But I think Words for Evil is worth the $2 bundle cost on its own, and the other games being good would just be a bonus.

God I hope people never stop making Unity horror games.quote:Do you remember the survival horror genre in 90s? The atmosphere? That fear? The main character is alone, near a forest. He doesn't remember anything about his life and this place. What is happened? Where is? What is happened? Where is?

I wouldn't go out of my way to write a negative/thumbs-down review, but I know objectively that it turns a lot of people off. Clear Sky with the faction wars mod is fun as poo poo

^^^ - It's the HD version of the N64 Superman game. Is Citizens of the Earth any good? Metacritic scores average kinda mid 60s, and Steam reviews read like the game's suckin' their dicks or something. THere's a whole lot of "perfect"s and "better than Earthbound"s thrown around.
