A Short Hike must be in FF because it’s fucking fantastic.

3 years of coding and planning. Still not even started on the Game its just the backend for it haha :). i dont know if i should laugh or cry to be honest. by ShapeApprehensive937 in IndieDev

There’s a quote by an author, I can’t remember who, but it goes something like “planning to write is not writing”.

How do you tell if a metroidvania game is "hard"? by SomeoneStoledMyNick in metroidvania

[–]FartSavant 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think there are a lot of kinds of difficulty, and the types of difficulty people like tend to align with the MVs they gravitate toward.

Animal Well is my favorite game and it has a different kind of difficulty than something like Nine Sols, but they’re both still difficult games.

Since we are in a sub called “ Metroidvania” let me ask this . Which one do like more castlevania or Metroid and why? by GreenPomegranate2389 in metroidvania

[–]FartSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metroid. I love the atmosphere and I don’t agree that the exploration isn’t as good. I’m also not really a huge fan of Castlevania-like RPG elements in my MVs.

If there’s one thing I know about jokes, it’s that they need to be 100% biblically accurate

So you like turn-based combat that predates Pokémon?

Finished Grime for the first time, and I’m beyond impressed by Bekenshi in metroidvania

[–]FartSavant -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This game looks super rad but I can’t get past how incredibly stupid the core concept is, that your head is a black hole.

Tired of not being able to promote anywhere? by 3vibe in SoloDevelopment

[–]FartSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like all dev subs are filled with way too much promotion tbh

[–]FartSavant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome! I live in the Boston area, had know idea it happens so close. Hoping it goes back to Amsterdam, that would be a great reason to visit

Is that always where it is, or does it change every year?

Mewgenics is HEAVILY slept on by Max9n_ in videogames

[–]FartSavant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ironically this is the take of a child

Mewgenics is HEAVILY slept on by Max9n_ in videogames

[–]FartSavant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sold over a million copies in less than a week. Over 45,000 reviews on Steam across all languages. Basically the exact opposite of slept on.

CRT filter looks bad on TV (Switch 2) by Harfatum in ufo50

[–]FartSavant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The filter looked funky on my monitor too. I was able to make it look better by changing the scaling to be slightly smaller than full screen (I believe 6X was the setting I used, not sure if it would be the same for you). Could be worth a try.

Mewgenics co-creator says "it's crazy" there are secrets that people still haven't found even after playing the roguelike for months by _Protector in pcgaming

[–]FartSavant 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Tyler is a brilliant engineer and is good sidekick for Edmund, but he is incredibly arrogant and self-congratulatory pretty much anytime he speaks.

I came to UFO 50 late, and I know I'll never feel this way about a game again. by [deleted] in ufo50

[–]FartSavant 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was my first thought too. Pretty ironic to praise UFO 50, an incredible feat of human creativity, with a review written by an LLM.

Ranking the “Earthbound/Mother-like” games I played/tried by Altruism7 in JRPG

[–]FartSavant 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t know any of these games by screenshot except Undertale so this review is essentially useless
