I absolutely loved it.

I liked it up until I was hit with the end of the game like 4 hours in. Way too short. It was good, but what the fuck, even at $15 that felt way too short. It barely took me a half an hour to unlock all the other swords to boot.

haven't played it but was interested in it after the nindies thing. seems stylish & fun enough. is it good and or challenging?

Thanks for reminding me, gotta go pirate it.

It's good, but short as fuck. Challenge is what you make of it in this, it's a lot like Hotline Miami, except instead of a top down shooter, it's a side scroller.

Guess Yea Forums largely skipped it then.

I loved it, but I hope the "new content" the dev said he's working on is free rather than paid DLC. I agree that it's way too short, and it almost has that "first in a trilogy" sort of feeling. Does anyone else get that?

It damn well better be free. I do feel like I paid for half of a game here. Soon as the game was ramping up, boom. Blueballed.

>other swords
wait what? I beat the game and only saw the default sword, how do you unlock other swords?

It's on my to-buy list for sure, I was impressed with the trailer they showed in the direct but I just gotta finish Shantae, Cuphead, and Rain World first.

Tip for when you play the game for the first time: Don’t use the bullet-time power, or use it very sparingly. It makes the game almost trivial and you can manage fine without it.

After you beat the game, you unlock the Gov Lab. In there are swords. You need keys you can find all over the game to unlock them. The swords are Prism Sword, which makes the blood into different colors, Master Sword, which shoots a sword laser, Phoenix Sword, which is a puff of flames, Claymore, which cuts through shields, has a large swing arc and is slower swinging, and a dagger sword thing that has dick all range but swings super fast.

noted, thanks user.

It's really only there so you can reflect bullets honestly. You can do it without the power as well, but it's really just for that.

It makes bosses a lot easier as well, especially the secret boss. I found it more satisfying when I got the timing down to deflect bullets without using the power.

Secret boss?

Also how the fuck did V survive as long as he did? The cocksucker has no special powers, but is somehow able to deflect your bullshit time powers. He's just a fat fucking mad lad in a track suit. Is this the real power of the cyka blyat?

Has the best soundtrack in the game imo. If you’ve beaten the game already go back and fight this guy.

FUCK I need to know if this is just a dude with the same somewhat common name, or if the game is actually written by fucking cboyardee

I'd become a lot more interested if cboyardee actually worked on this.

The most fun I've had this year along with AC7, this game was a blast to play all the way through. I easily see myself putting this near the games I replay whenever I get bored along with games like God Hand and Gunpoint.
On the other hand, it was obviously released unfinished with content planned later down the line so I can't look at it at a completely positive light.

Definitely interested in grabbing this once it's $10 and/or it gets a free update. Doesn't seem worth $15 as it is now but it looks great.

exactly. and it seems weird enough that it could entirely be him, but there's no way of knowing really. I guess I could try emailing the dev but I doubt I'd get a response

Yeah I’m really hoping they pad the game out with an update. Kickass music, gameplay, and art, but it just flat out ends super quickly.

Who?

Try it. Most indies do read their inboxes.

I"m more concerned that he's going to be drowning in russians begging for keys and shit, but fuck it, what do I have to lose. sent an email

Probably not gonna take my personal GOTY from Sekiro, but still had so much fun with this

Closest thing we've gotten to Hotline Miami in years....

I want to watch anime with the receptionist!

Make a new thread if you have to when you get that response, I wanna know.

Way too short and ending on a cliffhanger is a shitty thing to do when barely anything was explained

>Way too short and ending on a cliffhanger is a shitty thing to do when barely anything was explained

There's a lot there, but you really gotta dig if you want all the lore. Feel free to ask anything

They explained a good deal, but they left a shit ton hanging including some shit like no really, HOW THE FUCK did V survive even one encounter with you? Let alone apparently kill other Chronus users? He had no powers. Also how the fuck do Chronus users even kill each other anyway, given that they're all precogs, it should logically always end in a stalemate.

They actually explained a whole lot. Who The Dragon was, who /The Dragon/ was, what NULLS were and what happened to their creator, and they actually killed off both V and the Therapist, which surprises me because it seemed like there'd be a lot more to it. The current threads they left hanging are:
>Who is Snow
>What did Snow and V's employer want
>What the fuck are Tragedy and Comedy
>Who was girl

I've tried with no succes. Have you found a link for MEGA or a torrent?

I bought it on a whim today and just finished it. Story was a blast, gameplay was pretty good though.

I want to know what happens next now. Dev should just make a Katana 00 instead of DLC.

V probably killed non-gamma Nulls whose precognition is flawed.

As for how Gammas kill each other, I guess it ends up being a matter of mental fortitude? Like, maybe she just slipped up and accidentally "played out" a vision where she thought she could win.

Its literally on every known torrent site already, what the hell are you doing?

>V probably killed non-gamma Nulls whose precognition is flawed
Still doesn't explain how he could block all of your attacks and you couldn't land any really meaningful hits on him, other than "lol it's a videogame and he's protected by magical bullshit because plot".

Maybe he was a lowkey wild psychic himself. Or maybe the whole game is just Zero taking a massive leap into the future to play "the perfect game" to get what he wants.

yeah, I'll be sure to put katana zero and cboyardee in the op if you want to search the archive for it

Don't know what but something about the gameplay didn't click with me. Rest of its aspects were good enough to do a playthrough but didn't have any desire to replay or do the secret boss, watched it on YT instead.

Story has me kinda invested but again, gameplay felt lackluster so, don't know how interested I'll be until a continuation releases.

The way I see Gamma Vs Gamma is something like Dark Soul's hollows

You keep playing out these potential scenarios in your head, but everytime you "lose" it's chipping away at your sanity a little bit. Eventually you get to a point where you're saying "If I feint right, he kills me. If I feint left, he kills me, I've got no way out"

At that point you just accept you're gonna die and stop rewinding time.

I figure we just didn’t play out enough “simulations” to defeat him, snow rescued him before that. Somebody with good reflexes could hold out for awhile, even if you know what move they’re going to make they could still adapt.

It's 50% plot armour 50% he's just that much of a bad ass

isn't one of the points that nulls can't die even if they want to?

The first fight with V. has you win though, he's just saved by Snow

The time stopping thing? That's only if you run out of Chronos

Suicide is a viable option to avoid that fate

Not me, he beat my ass fair and square

there's even an achievement for that, you need to hit him in the back 4 times without dying, the best opportunities are while he shoots with his gun
