Hanging out in Rain World Thread

That expansion with the five new slugcats is unofficial, right? I've seen some people talking about new DLC, are they referring to this?

Have you tried reading the letters that appear after you pause the game

It didn't sell that much but the dev team is just two dudes so they made enough to call it a success

So I tried this out and idk what the fuck I'm doing. Am I supposed to go somewhere specific? I died to a lizard then died to rainfall. Idk wtf

also did it matter who I picked at the start? is it vastly different between the three characters? I picked the white one

>That expansion with the five new slugcats is unofficial, right?
Yes
We know that the newest update was so the devs could update all three releases at once, so theres more coming

That one is unofficial, but pretty massive. 90% sure the devs themselves are still working on the game too since they mentioned 1.7 making future updates easier.

follow your orange boy, he'll lead the way to where you should go for the most part
monk is easy mode, white is normal and carnivore/red is hard

So how's the switch verison compared to the PC version? Any noticeable differences (besides stuff like mods, of course)?

k, ty

Performance is lacking. Lower framerate, dips, etc. Some crashes too but I haven't seen those since the last update.

Still enjoying it because of the portability, but if you have a choice go for PC.

Yeah ok that drop thing is retarded on my part. But still this game has a ton of movement options that are never explained

>niche game appeals to a niche of losers obsessed with video games

My physical copy of the game got shipped today. Let’s go. In 15 years, when the world will have realized just how much the game is masterfully crafted, it will be worth a hundred thousad dollar.
And fucking finally. Limited run games put it on sale in december, I was starting to believe they fucked up my order

SMACK SMACK SMACK

The advanced movement stuff isn't mandatory, completed my first run without using any of it or having to look stuff up. Not really sure why they decided to implement them like this, but I guess explaining it in-game would have been quite the mouthful.

This might help if you want to try them out:

You can actually wall jump very far but the timing is hard to do. I once did it accidentally and retried it but never did it again, it was early in the game in the outskirts

the biggest problem i have is that 'hold up to grab any pole you cross' is never explained, yet explaining it would have nullified most of the 'teh controls r shit' criticisms

You're the reason why the devs patched the game to make it easier. Version 1.0 was relentless as it featured a lot less food to find

LRG opens pre-orders before they start actual production, any game you order from them tends to take a while to ship. If you look at their production updates page there are still games from last August that haven't been shipped yet.

Still waiting on the RW bundle with vinyl myself, that's gonna take a while.

You probably don't explore into the depths of indie titles much, but almost every indie developer would kill to get as many sales as Rain World did. It's not as famous as Hollow Knight or Undertale, or other indie hits, but it was definitely successful

None of the hidden controls are required to beat the game, they're mostly for style points and speeding up your walks from A to Z, except for maybe the slidespear.

I remember the map loss on death being pretty brutal, dying at the end of a long cycle of exploring was devastating.

Some tips to get you started. There are several different regions and each once requires a certain level of karma to enter. Karma is incremented by one by sleeping in shelters and decremented by one by dying. Karma flowers are the glowy yellow flowers you find in certain places and eating them will protect you from karma loss on death. If you die, you will lose the "karma shield" effect, but if you can get back to where you died, the karma flower will be growing out of the last normal platform you stood on, so if you fall off a cliff or drown in the ocean you'll still be able to retrieve it. If you die twice the flower will disappear. Follow the yellow dude and if you see a gate that requires five karma to pass, it's probably not a good idea to get stuck on the other side, at least until you climb up a certain greenish area, and then it's a great idea.

Also don't worry about killing things so much. It's usually not worth it unless you know what you're doing, but always try to keep something on hand to stun a lizard if they get to close.

I nelive you but you would expect a bigger game to make an impact this big on Yea Forums, hoping for ZeroRanger threads next.

With the pause screen already showing the controls why not have advanced controls somewhere there too? Just feels strange to have all these movements coded into the game but never say they exist
Yeah my bad, I thought that swallow/regurgitate and dropping items were hidden controls. They were actually just hidden in plain sight

You can press on. the grapple worm makes getting back easier

oh, I was dropping him because I wanted to hold more flies

Continue, you'll be able to get back to Shoreline eventually if you keep going. You can hold 1 neuron in your stomach if you swallow one when already full.

oh FUCK I didn't even think of that.

CRAPple worm makes for a slow, clumsy slugcat that can't style on lizards and vultures.

Attached: pissed of pepper.jpg (812x599, 172K)

Press on because there is an asshole that you would like to meet. If you want to make it back to Moon you can climb down The Wall, and then go down Chimney Canopy which leads into Industrial and since you've eaten a neuron, getting through Shaded Citidel to Shoreline should be ezpz.

That's the easiest way though. If you wan't to be an ebin god gamer you'll take the path backwards through Underhang and go back down the way you came. It's got some the most difficult platforming in the game and is very ___fun___ in my opinion.

>Hating on based grapplebro
Fuck you Hunter, go eat some centipedes or some shit.

ok, so basically neuron in hand, grapple worm in the other and neuron in belly. I need to get her over the number of neurons she started with right?

One to make her not hate you, one to make her like you

Ok, so ill be making this trip without weapins, wish me luck.

Attached: 1527583313452.png (540x675, 10K)

Befriend them or kill them all, your choice
hint:they like shiny jewelry

Respect them.
Don't make sudden movements, lower yourself compared to them (crouch), and give them gifts (they REALLY like pearls), or try to save them if they're attacked by a lizard or something.
They can become your friends.
However, they are all individuals and every once in a while you'll encounter an asshole who still tries to spear you even when you're friends with most of the tribe.

Or you can just git gud and spear them all back

approach slowly and on your belly. If they're at a toll, you'll have to pay, usually with a common pearl. Killing them too much will make some flee at your sight or assemble kill squads to hunt you down.

Are scavs inaccurate as hell with spears, or are they just throwing warning shots when I meet them?

Warning shots. Their warchief has the accuracy of a goddamn sniper, and the lesser scavs tend to miss more. If they threw too much above or below you, it's on purpose to make you fuck off or be more friendly on your approach i.e drop your weapons and get down on the ground

I'm waiting on the more Slugcats, because they're actually making an unnoficcial campaign with it. But most 'quality of life' mods I installed after clearing the base game on all difficulties. Hunter's countdown was kind of a bummer, since there so much new stuff you can't experience in one run, so after clearing it normally I'd advise anyone to dl the no cyles mods for the pepperslug.
