I picked up a package from aliexpress yesterday with what I can only say is a definite sign that Silksong will release very soon.



Look at the sender! There is no relation at all to the seller I bought from or to the actual product (a viofo car camera thanks seller for helping me avoid import taxes).

The rest of the words under Team Cherry can only mean the following:
Everyone!
Silksong
Nearly
Arriving!
Hooray!


e: also got a page snipe, the signs keep piling up

it's mostly funny that they've driven everyone so mad just by near-complete radio silence for like 5 years now. if they'd just offered a tiny update from time to time i don't think people would be quite as crazy

they literally have and it doesn't help. Also I can't remember specifically, but didn't they even say they weren't going to save a reveal for an event and were just gonna tweet it out when they're ready? Which doesn't stop people either

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

They announced Steamworld Heist 2 so Silksong wisely stayed away to avoid being overshadowed.

I'm still reeling from how epic Silksong was here. I can't believe it came out today!

Guys I dunno if I'm playing right but I'm stuck on the Maggot Bros. Should I just come back later with some more Grubcoin or is it something you can smash through by attrition after getting the Worm Honey?

By now you should have reached at least the halfway point of the premium Beetlepass? You should have more than enough Grubcoin.

Which nectar are you drinking before the fight? I think green is a bit of a trap option for that one, I had better success with blue.

hollow knight silksong is nearly finished, just the finishing touches to go but it has become so large it needs more storage space. time to delete some old games off the hard drive, starting with myth 2

Team cherry gave people such a need for hollow knight that others have started making the closest facsimiles they can.

By not giving us silksong they've given us more hollow knight than we could ever have imagined

it'd be funniest if Silksong releases the same day as the Elden Ring DLC, so they should do that.

Nine Sols had a great demo and it has an amazing visual style. Plus it's being made by Red Candle so by purchasing it you are literally and figuratively flipping of Winnie the Pooh, the Mayor of China.

I won't get excited anymore but one day soon, I will open up my phone and click on the little frog and I'll see the red switch logo with Silksong written next to it at the top of my favourites with a quadruple figure of new posts, and then I'll know.

At first I was excited about Silksong then I saw the tweet. It started off intriguing me with Epic Trailers but then it blew my mind with Fresh Gameplay.

I'm going to say that again. Fresh Gameplay. As if my normal Gameplay were stale, as in food. But now, they're offering, maybe even SERVING UP FRESH. GAMEPLAY. HA

I tried a few demos/betas of this because I backed it and it is indeed excellent. The last beta was like two thirds of the game though so I didn't play that.

There's also a game I saw recently that looked similar in terms of art style though it was heavier on platforming instead of action

Edit: it was Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus - https://youtu.be/6BxwY6cNBZM
