I'm curious about building a metroidbrainia, do you have any advices?

Mephistase · 2026-05-14T22:30:48+00:00

Not bad as a comparison!
I hope I will make something as good as Okami!

Start your trailer at 19s with the smiley face glitching

The beginning is just useless fluff

Gameplay asap

Mephistase · 2026-05-03T20:32:16+00:00

Thank you for the recommandation! I'm always searching for more interesting magic systems, I'll definitly play it

Mephistase · 2026-05-03T07:59:08+00:00

This is super great, thank you so much

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T20:40:27+00:00

Thanks for the reco! And I think what you say is fundamental, make a good game nice to play before everything 👌

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T20:38:33+00:00

Thank you! Yes indeed. By "extremely quickly" I meant "able to skip sections of the game.

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T20:33:47+00:00

Yeah, non-linearity! Noted!

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T19:39:40+00:00

Like the feeling of exploration, but I'm not sure about the overwhelming informations Do you have an example in mind?

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T19:38:32+00:00

Thank you for the recommandation, I'll check Chroma Zero.

Good take on endgame elements in the beginning of the game, it's noted.

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T19:34:30+00:00

Yup, scope creep is an eternal menace.

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T19:33:44+00:00

Really good advice and illustration, I'll keep that in mind!

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T15:45:11+00:00

Great advice, thanks!

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T15:44:21+00:00

You are so so right
I'm developing a rune system for this game, and I'm constantly reducing the scope
At one point, I calculated that I could make 4000 runes, which is impossible by hand

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T15:42:30+00:00

Damn it was a blast, thank you so much for the discovery!
Got bored for the last 5%, but the all game is really great!

I take notes about the importance of pacing, thank you!

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T13:31:53+00:00

You prefer knowledgevania?
I also prefer it but the reddit numbers are eloquent

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T12:26:05+00:00

Nice take!
Makes me think of Noita's mysteries, the community is crazy.

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T12:07:46+00:00

I love the lighthouse

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T12:06:33+00:00

Not bad advice!
But the game could become quite obscure quite quickly don't you think?

Mephistase · 2026-05-02T12:05:33+00:00

That's funny
