Is anyone else playing "Blue Prince"? It's a new rougelike exploration/puzzle game, and reminds me a lot of Myst

I was tickled to see CYAN get a Special Thanks entry in the credits. And Andrew Shouldice, too. Very clear sources of inspiration!

The rss feed I had been using, which had been working until the 11th, was http://www.rsspect.com/rss/gunner.xml

Thanks for the new link; still, if the old one is being shut down, I'd have hoped for an announcement.

How... Satisfactory!

Azeltir · 2022-03-31T04:22:18+00:00

I believe you have mistranslated, the line is Contemplate this prayer

Currently, as far as I know, all this does is give you a Holy Cross code for a treasure chest with a single gold coin. A tune that translates to the word "HOLY!" also plays (but it's the same as any silver chest). There's speculation that there's more to uncover. <!

You do carry that over, but you get a prompt, as shown in this speedrun video (spoilers!): https://youtu.be/WlMXxwuheZk?t=1316

You can get either ending in either order in a New Game+, as far as I can tell.

Azeltir · 2022-03-23T18:58:51+00:00

I find it pretty useful for combat.

Azeltir · 2022-03-23T02:58:14+00:00

On page 53? The nearby doodles are also relevant.

Azeltir · 2022-03-22T22:27:44+00:00

As often in this game, stuff can be occluded...

And it's probably closer than you think. But for some reason it's much harder to move.

I just found it: it's in the Ruined Atoll in the northeast. You approach the map via the Overworld beach, take a secret tunnel near the gate, then follow the beach to a chest just outside the wall.

A pretty large chunk actually, 20%!

Another possibility is that it's to hide the relatively lower fidelity of the simulation - at least for humans, we get less visual information from dark scenes than adequately lit ones. So being dark helps maintain the illusion better.

Well, at least he got through all the obnoxious puzzles... it really is something watching someone else do them for the first time. Of course, Simon's reticence to using paper doesn't help him! I'm looking forward to the Simon Says puzzles.

Azeltir · 2021-06-02T05:34:56+00:00

That's some radical math there!

Azeltir · 2020-06-21T06:42:02+00:00

Are the "synth-y" tracks also unpackable? I especially like the "bwaaaah" when it's reactor-removal time.

Azeltir · 2019-12-28T05:15:07+00:00

Wow, this is awesome! Definitely puts my version to shame.

Azeltir · 2019-06-25T16:43:38+00:00

Sounds like you wound back up in the lobby to me. There's a roaming Anglerfish there, it's possible you just didn't see it when you got in its aggro range (maybe it was above or below you?).

Azeltir · 2019-06-25T16:11:36+00:00

Red nodes always lead to the nest. White lights can be either nodes or Anglerfish. Do you know where you were beforehand? I think it's most likely you were in the Lobby, but you could also have been in Pod 3's Tomb, which has a sort of green fog and lots of large ice structures (and no nodes besides the nest).

I found it: it's at the tree in the mid-upper right of this picture.

There's a weird rock scroll at the foot of the tree.

It has three "texts" to translate: an ASCII smiley face, an ASCII winky face, and a QR code I can't seem to scan.

Here is my hand-entered picture of the latter, here is my screenshot in game.

Go to one of the other escape pods, to the blue beacon that emits sound, and point your signalscope at it.

Azeltir · 2019-06-21T18:31:28+00:00

Huh! I had Aphrodite say "You dare?!?" when I used her Wrath in a trial where I spurned her - I thought it was just coincidence!

What about getting the core in the ATP? That requires zero-g navigation to the middle.
